Welcome! Are you ready to get your detox on?
I have so many exciting things in store for you.
If you need a quick pick-me-up after vacation or a binge weekend, Renewal “Anytime” is a perfect body reboot. You can also use this detox if you need to look amazing fast for a wedding, reunion, or big event.
Before you embark on your detox journey, I want to talk about the word BALANCE.
Ahhhh, balance.
You are told to strive for balance in your life. In my opinion, that’s pretty difficult to accomplish. There are so many outside sources that can get you out of whack with life: new job, moving, marriage, trips, environmental toxins…the list is endless.
You can’t control every single thing in your life. You can, however, control what you put into your body and how you deal with stress.
That’s why I developed the Renewal “Anytime” 10 Day Detox. Think of this plan as a clean living jumpstart. You will start with eating clean, whole foods. You will also incorporate exercise, breathing and even dry brushing and massage.
Let’s call it a RE-BALANCE.
Your body is always striving for balance to keep you in optimum health, physically, mentally and emotionally. Even things like the changing seasons, nature and being around other people can move you away from the balance your body craves.
Physically, your blood needs to be at a pH level of 7.365. Have you ever heard of acidity and alkalinity? Maybe in a biology class way back? I don’t want to go into a big science lesson. What I first want you to know is something extremely important—your body loves you. Your body works hard to keep you alive.
With that love in mind, it is valuable to know that your body becomes more acidic over time due to consuming a lot of caffeine, sugar and processed foods, as well as exposure to environmental toxins like pesticides, and most of all stress. The acidity leads to inflammation.
Inflammation leads to chronic disease.
Not good. We don’t want any of that. Doing a gentle cleanse is a great way to re-balance your body by pumping in alkaline foods such as dark leafy greens, veggies and fruits and taking some “me” time.
Managing stress is also a way to help your body re-balance. Try yoga, meditation or breathing exercises over the next 10 days. Or, even easier, while eating your lunch, try sitting still for 5 minutes without the TV on, texting or reading a magazine. Your body is striving for balance so make sure to participate in activities that are relaxing and soulful; alkaline activities.
While your body is working to keep you healthy make sure to get a re-balance once in awhile to help her out. You can reuse this plan after your cleanse. Use the recipes and tips to give your body a reboot each season or when you feel out of whack. Remember that having perfect balance isn’t really doable, but you can get pretty darn close by following the steps in this plan.
I’m so excited to be on this wellness journey with you. Have an amazing detox experience and keep in mind this is not about perfection but about getting a chance to RE-BALANCE.
With love,

Renewal “Anytime” Detox…How It Works
Renewal “Anytime” Detox is for 10 days…10 days of discovering new things about your body. How glorious!
Here’s how it works:
- Read this entire book, cover to cover, before you head to the grocery store.
- Check your pantry. Do you have leftover quinoa or a spices that can be used for the cleanse?
- Don’t go and buy extra items. Stick to the list, especially if you have a budget. You might have some of the ingredients hanging out in your cupboard or fridge.*Most items can be found at a natural food store. Just ask anyone in the produce section or bulk section for items you are looking for. Don’t take a lot of time searching for items. Ask for help.*I like to buy my grains like quinoa in the bulk section of the grocery store; saves me a little cash plus I can get the right amount I need for a recipe.
- Make sure to follow the Daily Practices such as breathing and dry brushing so you have an overall holistic experience with your detox.
- Journal during your cleanse to jot down feelings, observations, etc… This is a nice way to get to know your body better and make that body-mind connection even stronger.
- Use the “Return to Life” section of this book to ease back after detox. Make sure to focus on what foods you don’t need or just want to introduce slowly. This packet can guide you towards a plan afterwards. As you know, each person is uniquely different, so customize your next steps per your body, schedule, and lifestyle.
- Use the BONUS recipes after your detox to keep the glow going. These recipes will also help you ease back into “regular life” without shocking your system.
My Thoughts About Renewal “Anytime” Detox
Sometimes your body just feels “bogged down” and sluggish and you may feel like you want to get the sludge out. Or you need to jump start your weight loss plan to get you really motivated. Or you just came back from vacation and maybe you didn’t eat so well during that time. Either way, it’s nice knowing that there is a way to give your body a little boost. A way that is healthy and doesn’t take months and months. I like knowing that I can do a 10 day detox pretty much anytime I feel the need. Sometimes, I just want that little boost to make me feel better, like after being sick. This 10 day detox will work to get me back on track after being down and out.
The recipes included are delicious and are foods that I want to eat, not just foods I need or have to eat. I think that is one thing that makes this particular detox successful. While the foods can be pricey, they are things you are going to enjoy eating so it’s not going to feel like a big dip in your wallet like many weight loss systems do. If you’re eating fairly healthy already, than you will have most of the ingredients in your pantry or fridge anyway.
The book is written in a way that is easy to follow. The recipes are quick and simple. I love how it is laid out. There is a FAQ section with answers to most commonly asked detox questions like what symptoms you may experience and where to purchase the required foods. There are daily instructions and the recipes for the day are broken down by breakfast, lunch and supper so you’re not scrambling trying to figure out which recipe is for which time of day. I love the smoothie recipes and recommendations for green juice. There are a few snack recipes too like Raw Strawberry Oat Bars and Raw Chocolate Pudding so if you have a sweet tooth, like me, you won’t feel deprived. Instead, you’ll have a boost of energy with your sweetness! I also love that the shopping list tells you exactly how much of each ingredients you’ll need.
I have the Nook version so I can’t wait to get it in print and keep it in my healthy recipes binder on my counter. That way I’ll have quick and easy access to recipes throughout the week, not just when I need a quick and healthy detox!
