:( I am soooooo sick. I am having a major detoxifying episode! It started about 11:00 PM last night and at 7:00 AM this morning I still feel terrible... I have a headache, irritated intestinal tract, diarrhea, aching joints and muscles, dizziness and severe nausea. Having worked as a Holistic Health Practitioner, I understand detoxing and the "healing crisis" process, but this is the worst I have ever personally experienced! I hope the worst of it runs it's course by 2:00 PM today, I am supposed to got to work, it is my "Friday". I'll let you know if I survive, I am going back to bed.

Just let it run it's course! ARGH! Keep hydrated though! And maybe do a probiotic? Gotta replace the good flora 'ya know? You'll be fine...

Hopefully some rest will get you through. Try to limit what you take in other than fluids, because your liver really seems to need a respite while you transition.

:rolleyes: I'm feeling a little better, but stayed home from work. I am going to stick to simply liquids right now, the thought of solid food even raw still makes me want to hork... Everyone said, "Yay Dad's sick, we can have pizza!" :eek:

Whenever I detox normally the first 2 days are pretty bad, after that is it lots of energy and feeling great.
Hang in there.

Go to the health food store and get some bentonite clay...mix about 4-5 tablespoons in a big glass of water and drink, it will help trust me!!

you should never use dry bentonite clay... ever. it needs to always be consumed in the premixed form. when you mix it yourself, if it's not done properly it can cause blockages.
i was told this at the health food store and by a naturopath... and by rawlove. so please... buy the premixed clay instead.

Bentonite clay is always mixed with physillium powder when consumed. It turns into a nice filling drink that comes out carrying all kinds of nasty's. Yup and it does taste a lot like mud. lol
Hot/Cold showers will help you feel better. Start dry skin brushing as well.

Call in for the rest of the week. Kinda kidding but not really, stay home and treat yourself with kindness. Read a good book and enjoy the process of gaining health. This too shall pass. A month from now all your people will see you in a whole new light.

I usually use innovite bentonite which is premixed with water. I've used dry before as well. If you mix it thoroughly so that there are no clumps in the water it shouldn't be a problem.

I'm still feeling so-so, somewhat better though. My wife and I were watching the news and we learned today was "call off gay day" to protest Prop 8's passage in California. That should get some rumors going around work since I called off... So, I got to support a cause I believe in and cleanse all in one!

LOL. Call off gay day! I'm so sorry you're feeling so awful - but you definitely brightened my day!
Keep up the good attitude - if nothing else, that's what'll see you through!

:rolleyes::confused: Good news, mixed news, bad news... The good news is I am feeling a little better, but not 100% The mixed news is that it has been a THOROUGH cleansing and the bad news is that it is a virus, everybody else in the house has it now...
