Fall is finally here! Before getting deep in the “ber” months, how about we say goodbye to summer with some self-care? We’re talking about a major summer detox — the Modern Muze way.

It feels like just yesterday we were celebrating the Fourth of July with viral red, white, and blue-themed drinks. Now, post-Labor Day weekend, it’s time to think of a Modern Muze-style summer detox that will prepare you for the fall and winter months.

From Nick Trenton’s Dopamine Detox for your “TBR”, to detoxifying tea, here are seven essential ways that Modern Muze’s founder Zulay Henao detoxes herself – from inside out.

Books for the soul

Books like Trenton’s Dopamine Detox aim to help detoxify the mind. The book is to help readers: “Learn how to reset your focus, productivity, and overall capacity for happiness.”

Hiking

Hiking is one of Henao’s favorite ways to detox. “I love detoxing my body with a good hike or walk, I do a walking meditation and just release thoughts and emotions not serving me!” she said about hiking. “I walk with intention and allow all the energy only nature can bring to literally seep into every cell of my body.” 

Electrolyte/Energy Capsules

A way to detoxify your body is to take electrolytes. These dietary supplement capsules support “hydration, stamina, and electrolyte repletion. And guess what? Henao uses them herself!

Facial masks

We are big fans of facial masks here. One of Henao’s favorite masks for summer detoxes is La Mer’s The Deep Purifying Mask, which is essential for her skincare routine.

Detoxifying tea

Another essential item to make your summer detox effective is tea. Have you ever tried turmeric tea? It helps to cleanse your body of toxins.

Skincare

We’re not done talking about skin care. Another skincare item that Henao detoxifies her body with is Sunday Riley’s all-in-one lactic acid treatment, Good Genes.

Smoothies

Lastly, we also love a detoxifying smoothie. This TikTok creator uses spinach, lemon, cucumber, ginger, and frozen fruit to detoxify her body.

A green smoothie won’t solve all your problems, but it’ll help with a few #weekendrecovery #foodtiktok #smoothie #greensmoothie #recipe #fypage
