1. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
1.1. WHAT IT DOES
Four days is all you'll need to experience the blissful results of "The South Beach Detox®". Highly comprehensive yet refreshingly simple, The South Beach Detox® combines all the elements necessary to successfully bring the body, mind and spirit to the ultimate level of wholeness.
Unlike other detox programs you may have tried, with The South Beach Detox® you will experience no feeling of sacrifice or depravation, just a sense of plenitude and serenity.
And our experienced and highly dedicated team will be available to you for support and guidance throughout your detox experience, one that will help you recreate yourself at the cellular level and remain with for the rest of your life.
1.2. HOW IT WORKS
At the core of The South Beach Detox® are three simple elements:
A reputable and effective line of detox products guaranteed to transform your body and mind from the very first day of your detox,
An established and highly successful Yoga program specifically developed for the detox plan and which has proven to fully support the physical and mental benefits provided by the detox products, and
An Awareness Meditation program aimed at establishing—and reinforcing—your awareness of the transformative process which takes place within both mind and body during the detox. Such awareness is essential to the positive feedback circuit that brings you to the next level of metamorphosis.
The synergetic effect of all three elements is what makes The South Beach Detox® such a powerful tool for personal transformation.

3. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND SIDE EFFECTS
3.1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
If you are pregnant or nursing, consult your healthcare practitioner prior to beginning any detox program. Pregnant women should never exercise in an over-heated environment.
3.2. SIDE EFFECTS
There are no known side effects to this program. Emotional states may come and go due to the deep purification taking place on the physical, mental, and emotional levels during the detox. This is actually a very healthy and desirable process that enables the mind and body to be rid of all unnecessary burdens and blockages, which in time could have lingered and consolidated to create physical and mental distress.
4. PRE-DETOX INSTRUCTIONS
Several days before beginning The South Beach Detox® you should start shifting your awareness to your food intake (at meal time only). Pay close attention to what you eat, when you eat, and how you eat. Then pay attention to how do you feel after you eat.
Begin applying the principle of "Conscious Living" to your meal activities. For example, eat when you feel the physical (not emotional) need to eat, be present during your meal, enjoying each bite and realizing the connection between the action of eating and that of nourishing your body at the cellular level so it can optimize the performance of all its vital functions.
Also be present after you eat, bringing the awareness to the digestive process and how that affects your level of energy and your mind/ thoughts. Remember not to put unnecessary judgments on your actions, just observe with compassion and patience for yourself. Judging is completely counter-productive and will only make you feel bad! Start making the connection between the types of food that you eat, the way your body feels and the thoughts your mind produces.
This
is an excellent start: Eat less and focus on LIVE FOOD (fruits and
vegetables)
that brings nutrients, vitamins and minerals to the
body. Stay away from DEAD FOOD (cooked food). Cut down on fried and
processed food. If you don't have a daily exercise routine, try
walking every day, doing a little Yoga (even 15 minutes a day done
effectively can be very powerful), or swimming. These are all great
activities that help the body become free of toxins, residues and
blockages that prevent optimal functioning.
As for the Awareness part of the process, the mere fact that you have decided to embark on The South Beach Detox® means that you are aware of the fact that something in your life needs to change. Capitalize on this awareness; investigate the reasons that pushed you towards detoxing. Think about your Intention for this detox: What are you are trying to achieve? How can you build on this intention, strengthen it and make it so powerful that no obstacles will come in the way of your success?
Refine your intention, practice believing in your intention in the knowledge that it will come true, visualize your intention manifesting, and completely integrate it into your being. Your intention is what creates who you are. Create an intention that will make you who you want to be, who you were always meant to be, free of limitations, fears and worries. If journaling appeals to you, start doing so a few days before beginning the detox. We have included a journal section at the end of this manual to help you do this.
Additional pre-detox instructions are available on The South Beach Detox CD – Track 1: “Pre-Detox Instructions Overview” & Track 2: “Complete Pre-Detox Instructions.”
