Well done!

You’re half way through the O2living Ultimate 5-Week Detox and successfully developing habits to create a happier you, and a healthier lifestyle designed to last.

In week #1, we asked you to introduce exercise into your weekly routine. From fitting in some squats in the morning, a jog at lunch or yoga after work to shed the stress, keeping your body moving helps keep joints lose, muscles tight and gives you the energy you need to get through life’s little challenges, whatever they may be.

Last week, we challenged you to increase your water intake and provided you with some easy ways to keep hydrated on the go.

So, what’s next? So far it’s been all about what to do. This week, we focus on what to avoid in order to feel your absolute best. Here we go!

ON THE ROAD TO A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE: GETTING RID OF UNWANTED TOXINS

The goal of the O2living Ultimate 5-Week Detox Challenge is not to find a fast fix to losing weight; we’re creating sustainable habits that promotes an overall healthy lifestyle, both inside and out.

Eliminating toxins from your diet sounds easy, but might be harder than you think. We’re not talking a full-on juice cleanse quite yet. We’re talking about crunching down on the food and drink choices that may be a large part of your daily diet. This includes food and drink that contain (or may contain) chemicals or pesticides (including non-organic fruits and vegetables); processed sugars; caffeine; and other foods that may be doing more harm than good.

Quick tip from the experts! Don’t go cold fish. Change isn’t made overnight. Gradually try substituting foods in your diet that contain toxins with ones that don’t. Get creative, be patient with yourself, and have fun!

Are you up for the challenge? Let’s go!
