The Divorce Detox Diet has nothing to do with your waistline or the number of celery stalks you consume in a day. This diet is not about cleansing your body; it’s about cleansing your mind and your heart.
There are no sign-up fees, no special formulations to purchase. All you need is some motivation to feel better and some direction to get there.
The Divorce Detox Diet Guidelines
To be avoided:
- people that bring you down
- “shoulds,” both from yourself and others
- always/never thinking

- painful reminders and mementos
- victimization
To be consumed in small amounts:
- social media
- movie or Netflix binges
- pity parties and days spent in bed

To be consumed in moderate amounts:
- reflection and analysis
- distractions

- hope
After a few weeks on the Divorce Detox Diet, you can expect to feel lighter and freer as you shed a little more of the weight you’re carrying from your past.
Good luck to you on your cleansing!
Time with animals is excellent therapy 🙂 My two cats got me through the really bad days during my divorce. There were plenty of times where I just wanted to stay in bed and fester. Having my cats meant that I couldn’t be selfish and that another couple of beings depended on me for attention and food. Meditation is also extremely healing for the mind during turbulent times.
Yes!!! I love both of those all the times:))
I love it. It is all common sense but when you, write it and breakout down into categories, it really brings it home. Thank you!
You’re so welcome!
