• Integrates the ancient wisdom of yoga, Ayurveda, and Traditional Chinese Medicine with naturopathic principles and contemporary nutritional science

Integrating the ancient wisdom of yoga, Ayurveda, and Traditional Chinese Medicine with naturopathic principles and contemporary nutritional science, Jonathan Glass, M.Ac., C.A.T., presents a practical 28-day program, divided into four cycles, designed to initiate and maximize detoxification of your body, mind, and spirit from the harmful effects of the modern lifestyle.
Glass reveals the interconnectedness of what we consume, both mentally and nutritionally, emphasizing that cleansing of the body alone will offer only a temporary solution if we do not also apply the same cleansing principles to our thoughts and actions. He provides delicious plant-based smoothie and meal recipes, step-by-step instructions to resolve blockages and stagnation in the physical or emotional body, including tips on liver health and healthy elimination, guidance on how to cleanse the proliferation of toxic thought patterns in the mind, as well as outlining a supportive Karma/Forgiveness cleanse ritual to detoxify the spirit. He explains how the soul is encased in five coverings, known as Koshas, and details how to harmonize all five Koshas through a plant-based diet, exercise, yoga, breathing techniques, and meditation/introspective practices.
Citing wisdom from teachers he has revered over the years and sages past and present, as well as teachings from the Vedas and other ancient texts, Glass reinforces that how we eat, think, and live directly impacts our health in body, mind, spirit, and our relationships. He also shows how the principles of the Total Life Cleanse inherently support the environment. By empowering you with a new way of thinking, seeing, and being, the Total Life Cleanse program allows you not only to heal yourself by changing your life patterns but also to heal others, as we foster a deeper connection to the life that surrounds us and ultimately the universe.

While in some ways this was a rehashing of everyone else's ideas, it was done succinctly and with new information from the author. I like that it's a 28 day cleanse - which can be done a couple of times each year, rather than a whole new drastic diet. We will be adopting parts of the cleanse as part of our health class.

This book is brimming with good advice from a variety of disciplines and is a pleasure to read. It is a manual to keep referring too rather than a read it once book. It is full of resources and the author has extensive experience giving you full confidence in what you are reading. The only downside for me was that the 28 day was probably a bit too ambitious and I would find it easier to pick out just a few changes to include in my life just to start with. Overall an excellent book. Thank You

Drawing upon the traditions and wisdom of our global ancestors, Total Life Cleanse introduces a sleek and easy to follow cleansing to help detox the body. The book is divided into two parts. In the first, Glass gives us the why of cleansing. He shares his own experiences and investigations, delving into wisdom from the Vedas and other texts. Here concepts from ayurvedic medicine are introduced. Part two is the practical application of the cleanse. In addition to recipes and dietary information, exercises for emotional cleansing and meditation are presented.
Total Life Cleanse is a vibrant, holistic approach to helping the body detox. This is especially important to me, as I have a faulty liver that doesn't process toxins correctly. I'm willing to try anything natural to help my body detox, and dietary changes have been the most important. I'm looking forward to trying out this cleansing method in full!
***Many thanks to Netgalley and Inner Traditions for providing an egalley in exchange for a fair and honest review.
