Rates for Detox Coaching

Phone Detox Coaching Sessions are easy and private. You can purchase one session at a time, but truthfully, it saves you money if you do the monthly package, and is the most effective at helping you with what your health goals are. It’s best to be consistent and gradual in your changes for much of what we’ll discuss, BUT regular coaching times also keep you consistently progressing toward those goals.

Most people need many months if not years, to detox enough to make a difference in their bodies. Someone with cancer, injuries, reflux, hormonal issues, heart problems, etc…it took years to probably manifest that within the body, so plan on taking time to remove problems as well. There are no guarantees, only hope, love, and willingness to TRY. (Don’t forget some people still need to be under a regular doctors care throughout, like if you are tapering off a medication.)

HOLIDAY BOGO is going on right now until DEC 31st, 2019. Keep one for yourself and give one, keep both, or give both!

NOT SURE? I’m always here for a quick consult at 848-232-8392. You can text me from 9 am-7 pm any day to set one up a consult before you make a decision.

Monthly Package–$300

Week 1: Detox Coaching Session, 60 minutes. You will fill out forms prior to coaching session. You will be given shopping lists for what foods to buy (mostly fruits and veggies) and what herbs and/or supplements to take, and food journal information. I’ll explain the diet practices and you’ll decide on a plan that works for you. Q&A time.

Week 2-4: Detox Coaching Sessions, 30 minutes each. Getting used to new diet and supplements, troubleshooting, and Q&A.

I’ll be available for quick emails or calls as well/included. Since I am also a Law of Attraction Coach and Reiki Master Teacher, I am open to adding these other specialties for part of the coaching time, or you may pay separately for those if desired.

You may space out your calls every two weeks if desired, or work out a plan with me for monthly maintenance after you’re achieving your goals. Get in touch if you need clarification about the way I do the calls.

Appointment times are strictly adhered to, always text/call if there is a change Please. And I’d do the same for you.

Example plan for someone wanting coaching: Months 1-2, weekly calls, then space out to Months 3-6 every other week, after that Months 7-and beyond, once a month calls. As needed after that. Because there will always be troubleshooting–it’s necessary and important to listen carefully to your body. If a food or supplement is or isn’t right for you, must be discussed thoroughly. This is why the frequency with coaching is so important. Because if you feel on your own, sometimes it’s just DAMN HARD to stay in detox mode. If you’ve chosen the support through coaching or community, you’re more likely to keep going safely.

In person classes are posted for individual classes as they come up, ranging from $25-50 usually for a Detox Talk/Group Class. Classes are located in Brick, NJ and after you sign up for my Herbal Health Club, you are welcome to come to the office. Exact address will be given after paperwork is processed.

Lotsa love and many blessings, Jen

Fruit Fasting during the Holidays

Hey there fruity people! Today I’m just here to reassure you that it’s ok to fall off the bandwagon quite a bit over the holidays. Yet, I’m also here to say that it’s so much easier to get back on that wagon after that little break as well.

Let’s DIG IN to some silly excuses we make for poor food choices over the holidays.

“It’s only ONE meal.”

“I only eat this once a year.”

“I’m planning on working out.”

Do you hear yourself saying things like this? But more important–can you eat something and then actually feel good about it?

You see with the Law of Attraction, we are bringing the thoughts we think into our reality. So, if we believe certain foods taste really good but are terrible for us, guess what we’re creating? Poor health. Waist line. Moodiness.

If we could get off the bandwagon and truly LOVE the foods and the meals we’re eating, and we’re eating them with eager anticipation, in joyful company or alone, and telling ourselves how great our bodies are at extracting nutrients, we’re going to feel a heck of a lot better!

And what if we continually kept changing the script towards feeling good about eating, and applauding ourselves for making healing food choices? What if we could drink some fruit juice or veggie juice, eat some raw fruits and veggies, and salads and soups MOST of the time? Wouldn’t that make a big improvement in our physical bodies, AND our minds?

My belief is that we’d be led toward more healthy choices, and actually eat those, AND that we’d be prompted to enjoy certain foods (like brownies) as well. So that all along, it’s enjoyable. Have you ever felt like certain foods were right to eat and improved your health? What foods were you eating? Did it prompt you to make new recipes that made health and healing more probable for you?

The holidays can be so busy with work, family, volunteering, and preparing that we don’t often stop to care for ourselves. With so many people acting as caregivers, let’s remember to eat the foods we are blessed to have–with JOY. Joy is part of your total health and healing and it does matter.

For the rest of December 2019, I’m offering my Detox With Jen coaching packages (valued at $200 per person per month) as a BOGO, so buy one for a loved one, and keep one for yourself, and receive twice the treats and joy for a BEAUTIFUL Holiday and New Year.

My first class of the year will be January 2, 2020. Email me at detoxwithjencaruso@gmail.com to be included or get more details. Call or text at 848-232-8392 for appointments.

Much love and many blessings, Jen

Lymph in the News

I was thrilled to read this article about how doctors are finally realizing that the lymph system exists and that it is in fact what is in between just about everything in the body!

Interstitial fluid is the fluid surrounding cells, and it’s now being studied more as the reason so many cancer patients have cancers that migrate.  Some believe this fluid explains why cancer moves.

Either way, we should understand how our lymphatic system is like our toilet flushing!  Dr. Morse, ND says that all cells eat and and create waste.  But where does the waste go?

Into the lymph system!!  How do you know if your lymph system is working well?

You are healthy and feeling well in every way.

If you are experiencing ANY (allergies, skin problems, mucous, PMS, erectile dysfunction, stomach, heart, colon, lung, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, thyroid, adrenal, reproductive, brain, memory, injury, etc…) symptoms, you need to detox.  The lymph system is backed up, like a toilet, and that is what is creating those symptoms.  Dr. Morse often calls it inflammation or acidosis, but if your toilet isn’t flushing, you’ve got a problem.

I’m here to help you with your program.  Those who are trained detox specialists have known for decades that the lymph must become alkaline in order to heal the rest of the body, and you can do this methodically and easily, gradually or quickly.

Healing takes time, and a good amount of effort, but it’s well worth it.  Your body will so much happier as you take the time to care about it.

If you are new to fasting, please read up on it here, and learn more about how your lymphatic system really works!  Now that I understand this magical lymph system, it makes me want to sing with joy that I have control of how my body is detoxing and cleansing itself.

So, don’t argue for your limitations, just go ahead and claim your right to good health!  Detox With Jen is here to help you get started with your own Abundance of Health through eating detoxing fruits, foods, and herbs, fasting when appropriate like grape juice fasts, meditation and energy work.

Water Fasting

Water Fasting can be a great way to cleanse the body and help it detox out the acids that are keeping the body sick.  I know it sounds difficult, but it certainly can be done, as seen in religions that require or ask their members to fast.  Some for a portion of the day, and some for many weeks.  There are many types of fasting for you to try, all with benefits.

Just like when we are sick with a cold or flu, and the body involuntarily fasts–because it knows best how to heal, we can make a conscious choice TO FAST.

The benefits of water fasting include better thinking skills, losing weight, and above all–healing many of our body’s issues.  This seems to happen when the kidneys allow the dirty lymph that has been circulating to actually flow out through the urine.  The process is process is called kidney filtration and is an important part of detoxing the body and cleansing the lymph system.

I was heavily influenced by Joel Fuhrman, who is a natural MD in New Jersey, with his book, Fasting and Eating for Health.  He claims he healed himself of an injury from ice skating after water fasting for over 40 days.  When I read this book, with it’s focus on healing injuries, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes I decided I wanted to begin a fasting-regularly-type of lifestyle because of the benefits.

Yet, because I’m a type 1 diabetic, I couldn’t safely fast on only water, as Fuhrman was suggesting most people do in his book.  He actually recommends that type 1 diabetics do not fast.

So, I had to find a better way.  And, I did!

I found about Dr. Morse’s fruit based diet and began eating more fruits and healing teas, and after a while was reintroduced to the Master Cleanse, which uses water, lemon juice, maple syrup, and cayenne to fast.

There are a few ways to fast of course, so don’t worry–you don’t have to water fast if you don’t wish to.  A grape juice fast can be just as healing as a water fast and safer for some.  But healing can happen faster if you are not focused on digestion (food in the colon), so the energy your body is using can be focused on strengthening cells, tissues, organs, etc. during a fast.

Water fasting can be not only helpful, but healthful, and can be done for a few hours a day to weeks at a time, depending on your condition and desires about detoxing.

It’s actually refreshing to do a few days on a water fast, because the mind becomes so clear without the ups and downs of blood sugars, and the “need” to eat.  There is a clarity like no other while fasting this way.  You will have more time to devote to yourself, more energy possibly, and more aliveness!

The worst part of fasting is working through the emotions–doubts, fears, and worries coming up, and being frustrated with your current health.  The fasting is actually easy.  The mind is what you will need to control!

Once you try a water only fast, you will enjoy the secret only a few know about, that it feels so good, you’ll want to do it regularly for healing and health!  Be sure to read the whole series on Fasting, and contact me about your specialized detox plan.
