Nowadays, a wellness program will recommend that one should undergo some kind of body cleansing process, such as juices or water therapy, fruit and vegetable diet, physical exercises and other related rituals. The process is intended to heal the body, flush out the toxins, re-energize the system or simply, to give life to a dull existence.
Many believe that their life will change when they undergo such fitness regimen. But once they achieve their desired goals, some will seek and thirst for admiration, recognition, and praise. They credit their newfound fame to themselves. At this point, it is not wellness but idolatry of self.
While, there is nothing wrong with a wellness program, since it takes care of the body - the temple of the Holy Spirit, it must be done in way pleasing to God.
One must strive to cleanse his heart and get rid of pride, hatred, greed, anger, envy, sloth and other sins. As for the mind, it should be decongested and one must throw out garbage like lust and gluttony.
This is spiritual cleansing.
