Servings1 morning
Three glasses on a linen surface in morning light — warm lemon water, fresh celery juice, and a deep purple heavy metal detox smoothie

Three steps to cleanse, restore, and illuminate from within.

  • Begin on an empty stomach, first thing in the morning.
  • Wait 15–30 minutes between each step so the body can fully absorb.
  • Move slowly — this is a ritual, not a checklist.

Method 1

Step One — Warm Lemon Water

Awaken digestion and alkalize the body

  • 16–32 oz warm (not hot) water
  • ½ to 1 fresh lemon or lime, juiced

Steps

  1. 01

    On an empty stomach, squeeze the lemon or lime into the warm water and stir.

  2. 02

    Sip slowly. Wait 15–30 minutes before moving to step two.

Method 2

Step Two — Fresh Celery Juice

Flood the body with mineral salts

  • 16–32 oz pure, freshly juiced celery (nothing added)

Steps

  1. 01

    Run fresh celery stalks through a juicer until you have 16–32 oz of pure juice.

  2. 02

    Drink on an empty stomach. Use only celery — no lemon, ginger, or greens added.

  3. 03

    Wait another 15–30 minutes before moving to step three.

Method 3

Step Three — Heavy Metal Detox Smoothie

Gently bind and draw out heavy metals

  • 2 cups frozen or fresh wild blueberries, or 2 oz pure wild blueberry juice, or 2 tbsp pure wild blueberry powder
  • 1 cup tightly packed fresh cilantro
  • 1 tsp barley grass juice powder
  • 1 tsp spirulina
  • 1 tbsp Atlantic dulse
  • Fresh orange juice, to blend
  • Additional water (optional)

Steps

  1. 01

    Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender with enough fresh orange juice to get things moving.

  2. 02

    Blend until smooth. Add a splash of water if you prefer a thinner consistency.

  3. 03

    Pour into a glass and enjoy as the final step of your morning routine.

Notes

  • Inspired by the work of Medical Medium — Anthony William. All three steps originate from his teachings; please explore his books and resources for a much deeper understanding of the healing behind each practice.
  • Note on Step Three: the original Medical Medium recipe also includes 2 ripe bananas and the juice of one orange. The version above is a personal adaptation.
  • Wait 15–30 minutes between each step so each one can do its work on an empty stomach.
