In spring, people are more willing to leave the house and the city, and are more open to new experiences than in the winter months when they’re in the house all day. If you're thinking of going somewhere, feel free to call the female members of your family, so that you can take advantage of the cleansing energies of this season together. 

When it comes to detoxification, a lot of people think of starvation, but luckily there are many methods of physical and spiritual cleansing which doesn’t involve starvation. Spring lifestyle change can be a pleasant one, what’s more, it can become a binding experience, which also has an effect on everyday life.

The purpose of fasting treatment is to rid the body of any accumulated and harmful substances, deposits, to relieve digestion and thus release energy in the body. During fasting, one removes some unhealthy things in his/her diet, and instead eats/drinks other foods and drinks rich in vitamins and minerals. Fasting can be that someone avoids meat, sugar or may start every day with fresh fruit juice and eats soup for lunch and dinner for salad. It can also involve raw food and cleaning spices. The diet can be tailored to suit individual needs and tastes. 

However, the transition and fasting are also less burdensome if you do it with others, so you can motivate and support each other and discuss experiences. You can also fast at home, but the effect of changing your environment is much greater, when you are also relieved from air pollution and electrosmog. Additionally, you can get personalised and ready-made programmes and recipe ideas that are complemented by exercise and massage. 

Changing your environment puts as much emphasis on pleasant new experiences as on healthy eating. That’s why multi-day rural lifestyle programmes are popular from fasting camps through exercise-meditation sessions to wellness weekends. The great advantage of traveling is that it’s easier to pick up new habits away from the familiar environment and that your body adapts to new things more easily. Programme opportunities divert the attention from what you can’t eat, and the new environment provides better rest and relaxation. At the same time, travelling facilitates bonding and helps you move forward if your relationship is stuck at one point or if your relationship is not ideal. Travelling together can make you connect in a different way while having a lot of fun.

If you can only spend one day for joint detoxification, it can do a lot for your health and make you look at each other and the world differently. A pampering day in one of the nearby spas can be really effective. The stress-relieving effect of water not only relaxes but also helps to avoid eating for calming down. Certain types of thermal water improve circulation and accelerate body metabolism, especially when you combine them with water exercise, swimming and aqua fitness. In addition, several kinds of thermal water can be consumed as a drink, which, in the form of drinking therapy, also has a good effect on digestion and help cleanse internally. The sauna is also excellent for detoxification and the cherry on top can be a rejuvenating massage that stimulates tissues and circulation.

If you can only spend one or two hours a week in additional programmes due to a busy schedule, you can call your mom to play sports, thus you can spend more time together and a routine activity becomes a pleasant joint experience. Yoga can add to a healthier lifestyle, because it increases body awareness, helps you focus and be disciplined. If busy schedules and stress makes you unbalanced from time to time and you can’t stop thinking, you are always in problem-solving mode, yoga is especially helpful, because it silences the mind and brings back the balance. If all of this has been done, you’ll know better what your body needs, and it’ll be much easier to abandon harmful habits.
