Physical Detox & Ascension Symptoms
|
The work you are about to embark on is an entire shift…a shape shift of all that you have identified yourself as and with. You can expect some disruption. Here are a few of the symptoms often reported with a detox. Keep in mind, this is not just a digestive detox, so you may experience symptoms differently more intensely than others who've simply done a diet detox.
In the instance of ascension symptoms, you may feel as though part of you is dying. It is. But YOU are not dying. You’re waking up. The old identity is dying. It is here that compassion is required. Schedule a session if needed. |

Worth NotingDuring the most intense detoxification process, there are increased feelings of helplessness & loneliness.
During these times, in addition to self-care rituals, it will be important to practice invocations and mantra. |
Megadosing Niacin & Vitamin C Symptoms
Please read the Brain Candy page for more info on both these subjects.
Niacin (B3)
When we megadose niacin, it is common to experience what is called a "flush".
This can be a mild to medium uncomfortable experience. THe more you underdstand and experience it, the less bothersome it is. What it feels like is a flush of warm, prickly heat that can begin the chest and expand out to the arms, and usually up into the face. It can feel like a sunburn, or a hotflash. It can also feel prickly/itchy. The flush can come on anytime after taking the niacin...from 20 minutes to hours. If you take it on an empty stomach you will experience a greater sensation (in my experience). What you are feeling is the expansion of the capillaries. a LITERAL flush. Nothing to be afraid of
VItamin C
Vitamin C is a great remedy for constipation. For this, you can know you've reached your limit when you have diarrhea. Its nothing to worry about, you cannot "OD" on C. Simply bring the dosing down a little bit. For example, begin with 1500 mg. If you don't get diarrhea, try increasing to 2000mg. If you get some 'movement' then simply readjust down to 1500 and know that's all you need.
