Lesson 2 - Cleansing and Rebalancing for Total Health |
|
- Introduction: As you follow Gary's directions, you begin to feel sure that you are on the right path. Sometimes you look ahead and smile as you glimpse your destination, but at other times the road seems incredibly rough. Suddenly you stumble. As you struggle to get up, Gary walks over to help and he asks:
"What's in the backpack?"
"Stuff," you answer, painfully aware that it is not the roughness of the road that has slowed you down, it is the stuff you are carrying on your back.
- Purpose: Lesson 2 will help you identify and free yourself from the "stuff" that is dragging you down, so that you can bring your life into balance.
- Focus: Focus on identifying and releasing old patterns that no longer serve you.
- The Protocol: Month 2 continues the detoxification protocol.

- Physical Activity: Exercise for 45 minutes, 6 days a week: aerobic activity one day followed by resistance training the next.
Aerobic activities use the large muscles in repetitive, rhythmic patterns to strengthen the cardio vascular system. Especially in the beginning, duration is more important than distance or intensity.
Examples: running, powerwalking, swimming, bicycling, rowing, jumping rope.
Resistance Training increases muscle strength. Examples: weight training, tennis, circuit training.

- Conclusion: How have you been programmed?
If you find yourself acting with conditioned responses rather than making reasoned decisions, you must free yourself. Examine each of your habits. Do your reactions enhance your life or are they left-over survival responses from the past? As a child, were you rewarded for obedience and punished for questioning? As an adult, do you continue to carry a fear of questioning? Learn to feel the fear, release it and move outside your comfort zone, step by step. Do you eat quickly, even when there is no reason to rush? Living in the moment means learning to appreciate and to savor your food. As you take each bite, think of the nourishment it brings to your body. Don't waste your energy defending old habits. Replace dead food with energizing food. Replace self-defeating reactions with reasoned responses. Know that as you continue to actively take control of your time, the positive changes you are seeking will occur.
