DE.TOX.IFY

D E. T O X. I F Y

     "DETOXIFY"- to rid of poison or the effect of poison, according to the DETOXIFY Definition & Meaning Dictionary.com.  According to me, it refers to the act of eliminating harm from one's body and soul. Each syllable with its own function. De- meaning 'down', 'off' or 'away', tox- derived from the Greek word for 'poison', and ify- meaning "to make" or "to become".

      I think it's high time we give ourselves the space and time to reach a state of harm-free bodies and souls. In the big 2026, t's important to learn to give yourself the grace to DETOXIFY. I'm not just talking about harmful substances- i'm talking about all toxins- both physical and abstract. I'm talking digital, emotional strain, overworking, unhealthy lifestyle, depression, negativity, guilt among others. This is the year that we choose ourselves and prioritize us, us, us. Now, let me break it down.

Here is a 7-day Detox Challenge, I have put together for every gentle reader to commence
