Mini Ayurvedic Detox to reset digestion

Everyone has had the experience of going on vacation or simply having a big party weekend.....like memorial day......and waking up at the end of it feeling lethargic, bloated and having put on a few pounds.  The following "mini" detox is the perfect way to quickly pull yourself back into balance.  Go to www.elementalom.com for recipes and instructions for meditation and the eating routine.  Have fun!



Your Daily Plan

Breakfast           
Heat skim milk or soy milk in a pot with a little bit of honey, nutmeg and cinnamon. You may add some almonds to the bottom of your pot.  They get warm and soft and taste great!

Eat ginger mix before each meal.

Eating Routine
No eating 3 hours prior to bedtime, eat 3 meals a day around the same time each day.

Daily self massage with Sesame Oil.  Have one professional Ayurvedic massage on the last day.
