Decontamination is the process of cleansing to remove contamination, or the possibility (or fear) of contamination, by hazardous materials. In the case of your mind, soul and body you are in contact with contaminating objects and ideas every day. The corporate media and advertising blurts its message from everywhere.

Physical contamination can involve a vast array of things from cutting out fizzy drinks full of poison, to excercising, cutting down on alcohol and drug use etc. All things in moderation! Most of this is common sense but some healthy eating is also about decontaminating your mind from marketing gimmicks and food labelling designed to dupe you.

The most important decontamination is the mental and spiritual. The spiritual will come naturally when you cleanse physically and mentally. We aren't talking about any baptism or weird diets here, just the use of your intelligence and integrity. There is a lifetime's worth of books out there to read up on, DVD documentaries, alternative media news sites and organisations and campaigns to join in with. Could there be anything more important than knowing how the world works, trying to influence it, and having a good time in the process?
