ACTIVATE YOUR PREFRONTAL CORTEX<br />
Even if you are pumped up to start the detox program, there is a chance that a certain<br />
part of your mind might dread the effort you have to invest down the line. You can prepare<br />
yourself for this by activating your prefrontal cortex.<br />
Now, we don’t need to get technical here. The idea is to train your brain to stay positive<br />
when you start the detox program, which is the key to achieving the results you expect. You<br />
have to change your thought pattern so that you don’t fixate on the detoxification.<br />
A great way to take your mind off this is by focusing on something pleasant. You can<br />
choose any number of ways to do so, including<br />
Spending time with friends<br />
Calling up a friend to have a nice chat<br />
Smelling essential oils or trying aromatherapy<br />
Taking long walks and getting close to nature<br />
Playing video games<br />
Watching your favorite shows & movies<br />
In short, any activity that you find pleasant and which takes your mind off the detox<br />
program works. You can keep your mind engaged whenever you are dealing with cravings.<br />
This way, you will be able to fight them off without the risk of giving into the temptation.<br />
LEARN TO DEAL WITH HEADACHES<br />
There are no major side effects of following a detox program. Among the common<br />
occurrences is a headache. You might experience one during the initial stages, because<br />
toxins are escaping your mind and body, and also affect the sensitive tissues within your<br />
systems.<br />
You can overcome headaches using peppermint essential oil. All you need to do is apply<br />
a few drops of oil behind your neck or on your temples. After this, lie down in your room,<br />
turning the lights off.<br />
