28 Day Detox – Day 6 & 7

by | Jan 9, 2015 | Uncategorized | 3 comments

So you’re almost at the end of your first week.  How are you finding it?

I’ve grouped days six and seven together and I have a treat for you!

Firstly, for day six (Saturday) you won’t be given any additional items to add to your daily routine, instead we’ll be carrying on with the items already added in the previous 5 days.

Secondly, day seven (Sunday) is going to be a rest day.  So please feel free to rest from the planking, timing your walking and de-cluttering and any other activity along these lines if you like.  However, please try to where possible continue with the eating elements of your routine.

So this is what day six (Saturday) holds: 

1. Out with gluten, processed sugars, sweeteners, alcohol and fizzy drinks

2. Meditate for 5 mins a day

3. Drink at least 2 litres of water a day

4. Do 10 seconds of planking

5. Pick another drawer or cupboard to de-clutter, use the natural vinegar solution (mentioned in day two) as a cleaner rather than any toxic chemicals.

6. Note 10 things you are grateful for in your gratitude pad.

7. Increase the amount of steps or length of time you walk today by 5% from the previous day’s total.

8. Take a daily probiotic

9. Eat 5 fruit or vegetables a day (preferably raw for optimum nutrition) and include chia, flax and hemp seeds in your diet.

10. Make sure you have breakfast within a hour of getting up and don’t skip meals, make sure to eat something (if only something little) every 3-4hrs.

11. Reduce your caffeine intake by 25%, or replace it with green tea.

12. Watch at least one inspirational or motivational video each day.

13. Try having either a smoothie or a juice every day (the choice is yours which one), but make sure it has some veggies in as well as fruit.

And this is what day seven (Sunday), your rest day holds

1. Out with gluten, processed sugars, sweeteners, alcohol and fizzy drinks

2. Drink at least 2 litres of water a day

3. Note 10 things you are grateful for in your gratitude pad.

4. Take a daily probiotic

5. Eat 5 fruit or vegetables a day (preferably raw for optimum nutrition) and include chia, flax and hemp seeds in your diet.

6. Make sure you have breakfast within a hour of getting up and don’t skip meals, make sure to eat something (if only something little) every 3-4hrs.

7. Reduce your caffeine intake by 25%, or replace it with green tea.

8. Try having either a smoothie or a juice every day (the choice is yours which one), but make sure it has some veggies in as well as fruit.

Enjoy your weekend and be ready for some new detoxing items on Monday.

Oh, and well done for getting this far!

    Hi Faith,
    First of all thank you so much for this blog, I stumbled upon it on FB and thought I’d give it a go. Week 1 is going well and thanks to you, my cupboards are looking better than they have in a long time and it feels great!
    Having done week 1, it made me do a bit of research and I just have a couple of questions if you don’t mind me asking.
    First of all, what probiotic to choose… There are so many out there and I found it rather confusing. Being dairy intolerant, the obvious yakult etc is out of range and I ended up just taking which ever I found. Any particular thing to focus on?
    Then filtered water as opposed to mineral bottled water – what kind of filter should be used? Do you mean the Brita sort? I always found it added a taste and there used to be the odd bit of stuff floating which had put me off.
    You also mentioned fermented food, I got a bit excited about that one and was disappointed to read about adding whey. I read some people use brine instead, would you by any chance have any reference you recommend for a newbie to start? Would it work as well with brine as the more ‘conventional ‘way?
    I appreciate you are very busy with your book ( fantastic) but if you could find the time to reply, that would be brilliant.
    Kind regards,
    Fred
