This group of participants has been amazing. The sharing of recipes and support has been so wonderful to be a part of as a practitioner. The premise of the Purification Program is formulated around the "One degree of Change". That one degree of change can be as simple as adding one new food into your diet, drinking more water, drinking one less soda a day, walking 10,000 steps a day or buying local produce. During my morning workout, I was thinking about how one degree of change has been a big part of my life. I look back through the years, I smile at how all the "one degree of change" has affected my life. As a pilot the one degree of change in my flight plan can take me in a new direction. I have applied this simple technique in my career by taking that one degree of change by taking the time with patients to remind them to feed their bodies properly. Personally, I made a change in our household by composting all the kitchen leftovers to reduce our carbon footprint. Ten years ago when I began my first purification program, I stopped drinking soda and diet soda. Physically, a created a fitness plan that incorporated exercise into my morning everyday of the week. I also adopted a habit of saying ten things I am grateful for each morning, my gratitude list.
This is one of the posts from a couple doing the Standard Process Purification Program together:
Patient C:
Week Two of My Journey
With the beginning of week two is our first weigh-in. I was excited and nervous, what if all my
work didn’t yield results? I noticed my
breathing as I stepped on the scale, three pound loss! Whew…. I was pleased to
see progress and it immediately fueled my spirits.
During this class, we learned the importance of
exercise. Since we used to be hunters
and gatherers walking to seek food, to now having the ability to drive up to a
window for it, our physical activity has almost ceased to exist for most
people. We learned that we should take
at least 10,000 steps a day. There is a
lot of technology today that can help us with tracking our movement such as
phone apps and tools like the Pulse.
I also learned that most of us are committing a crime when
we eat. We are guilty of DWE, Drinking
While Eating. When we consume liquid
while we are eating, we dilute our digestive fluids making it more difficult
for our body to properly digest food.
Dr. B also taught us to sit down and enjoy our foods. To take time to chew our food properly. To put our fork down between bites. To give
thanks for the land, the farmers, and the person who prepared the meal.
