Detoxing The Body Is Just One Step In Creating Overall Health

Detox has become the new health buzz word

Detox has become the new health buzz word. When most people think about a detox program, the first thing that comes to mind is ridding the body of toxins, drugs, or other foreign substances that are interfering with their physical health. However, detoxing the body is just one aspect of a healthy lifestyle. Have you ever considered detoxing your mind, spirit, relationships, home, schedule, and more? If not, you should because, generally, when one area of our life in out of balance; it affects all areas.

1 Corinthians 12:26 says that when one member suffers all the members of the body suffer. That is why I believe we must approach detoxification in a holistic manner if we are to truly acquire health and wholeness. Long-lasting healing is not compartmentalized healing; it is healing of the whole self.

One of the most important aspects to changing your life is changing or detoxing your thoughts. Many people need to detox their minds from negative thinking, destructive mindsets, and old mental patterns that are keeping them struck and stealing their joy and peace. If you were to spend several hours just recording your thoughts, you might be surprised at what you find. Are you thoughts positive and encouraging or negative and self-defeating?

A renewed mind is essential to a fruitful walk with God and a happy life. Roman 12:2 states that we are to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. In fact, the mind has the greatest influence on your health, wealth, relationships, happiness, and overall well-being. When your mind is toxic and filled with fear, negativity, anger, insecurity, self-doubt and any other state of disharmony, it keeps you from experiencing God's peace, joy, and abundance in your personal life, relationships, and surroundings.

However, renewing the mind usually isn't as easy as stopping destructive thinking and replacing them with happy thoughts. Most of the thoughts we think on a day-to-day basis are engrained mindsets and subconscious mental patterns. Changing these unhealthy mindsets begins with first recognizing they are there and then replacing them with God's word and thoughts that are spiritual sound.

Many of us need a "brain" washing. If you struggle continually with negative thoughts, depression, worry, fear, guilt, anxiety and any other emotion not consistent with God's character, start paying attention to what you are thinking and if your thoughts aren't in alignment with your goals and desires, change and replace them so they are consistent with what you really want.

I have found one of the greatest ways to eliminate negative thinking is through meditation. You can find all types of guided meditations that will help you control wandering thoughts and negative thinking. There are now even Christ-centered meditation CDs for Christians that allow you to practice meditation in a way that completely honors God. Through Christian meditation we touch the hem of Jesus garment and enter into the transformation power of his healing love and grace. Through spending time with God in silence and stillness we surrender our spirit to God and allow Him to mold, shape, and fashion us according to his will and divine purpose.
