In regards to eating meat

My response to:

7. I wasn't referring to a colon irrigation, or "high colonic." I was referring to a gentle, slow cleansing using herbs and psyllium to clear out the digestive tract. I certainly would not propose one did this, or would need to, a few times a year. I have done it approximately once in ten years. Of course you replenish with probiotics and healthy food afterwards.

My hubby and I do a juice fast with cleansing herbs and bluegreen algae, for 1-2 weeks, about once a year. We haven't done colonics in about 20 years and don't plan to ever again. I think they have value though for those who need rapid detox.

8. We all eat junk at some points. We breathe polluted air and drink questionable water. So, an occasional cleaning out might be a good thing. And what's wrong with detoxing? Our bodies do it by sweating, the lymph system. And there is the idea that when we are instigating the cleanse on a physical level (which sets intention); might it not follow that we cleanse on other levels as well?

Good points. Despite our best efforts, we can't control the air we breathe. Toxins abound.

I've found that physical detox always results in emotional and spiritual detox as well. So it's an all around good thing.
