10-Day Detoxification with Edgar Cayce

A favorite Edgar Cayce saying: After breakfast, work a while
After lunch, rest a while
After dinner, walk a mile
Your Cayce inspired program will involve three phases: cleanse, rebuild, and maintain. The goal of this program is
to detoxify and coordinate the organ systems of the body.
Handouts you will need for the cleansing process:

Days 5 7: The Apple Diet

Eat only raw, peeled, organic apples for three days. Eat as many apples as desired.
Drink only distilled water: eight to ten 8-oz glasses per day.
Have a colonic irrigation at the end of days 5 and day 7. An enema may be taken each of the three evenings if
a colonic is not possible.
Exercise and do breathing exercises throughout the fast, but exercise should be gentle during this phase.
Days 8 10: Rebuild: Segue for you cells

The return to a regular diet must be gradual to avoid stressing your body. Use the following plan to slowly re-
acclimate your digestive system. On all days you may eat as much as you like of the permitted foods.
Day 8:
Add raw juices from alkaline-forming fruits and non-starchy vegetables (leafy greens such as kale, lettuce,

Day 9:
Add steamed or raw unseasoned, non-starchy vegetables.
Day 10:
Add olive oil, live cultured yogurt, and egg yolks (do not eat the whites).
Add all vegetables (starchy vegetables include: root vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, beets, turnips, radishes;
squashes; peas; and beans).
Eat starches and fruits or yogurt and fruits at opposite times of the day.
Congratulations! Your body thanks you!

Remember to maintain healthy patterns with the following guidelines:
Maintenance:
When you are finished with your cleansing program you may find that foods you desired before, like coffee or junk
food, do not seem as appealing. You may also find that when you re-introduce certain foods, you feel sick or have
symptoms that you suffered before the cleanse return. These are foods that you want to completely eliminate from
your diet, or eat as infrequently as possible to maintain a balanced, healthy environment in your body.
It is difficult to maintain a perfect diet in our fast paced, fast food world. So instead of trying to be perfect all the
time, here as some suggestions to help you maintain what you have achieved during your cleanse.
1. Eat to live, dont live to eat!

2. Eat a rainbow salad every day!
10-Day Detoxification with Edgar Cayce, Page 2 of 3

Know matter how good or bad you have chosen to eat in a given day, make it a requirement to eat one salad with
as many different colored vegetables as you see colors in the rainbow. For example: red peppers, orange peppers
or carrots, raw shredded yellow squash, green leafy veggies, purple cabbage. You can always add edible blue
flowers if you want to get blue in there.
3. Cleanse twice a year!

Better times of the year to cleanse are fall and spring. Seek professional advice as to what type of cleanse you body
needs at that time of year.
4. Make life giving versus life depleting choices!
The minimal goal you set for yourself should be to eat something life-giving every day, such as a salad. You can
strive for eating life giving foods (raw fruits and vegetables) 80% of the time. You will find that you do not feel
deprived if you allow yourself to eat those forbidden foods on occasion. By eating whole foods most of the time,
when you do eat the forbidden foods they will not have the same negative effect on your body. Your body will be
able to process those toxins because of the nutrition provided by the real food you have eaten.
5. Practice feeling healthy!
The more you practice habits the easier they get. The healthier you feel, the easier it is to make healthy choices.
