If so, perhaps it is time to make sure they are organic and do a liver cleanse!\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

According to Chinese 5 Element Theory – Spring is related to the Element – Wood.\u00a0 The organ associated with Wood is the Liver.\u00a0Liver is responsible for storing a lot of anger and resentment.\u00a0<\/span>Have you noticed yourself getting angry? \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I certainly have. It is a normal occurrence at this time of year.\u00a0 Have you also noticed your allergy symptoms acting up?\u00a0 That may also be a sign of liver congestion or energy stagnation in this organ.\u00a0 So, to help the liver – you biggest cleanser and detoxifier, we can give it a little help.\u00a0 It is amazingly easy to do with some simple foods in your kitchen.<\/p>\n

Starting with lemons!<\/h3>\n

Lemons contain Vitamin C and limonene that help with liver detox.\u00a0 Particularly, both the Vitamin C and limonene (a phytochemical found in the rind and the white fleshy parts of the lemon) aid in phase 1 of liver detox. \u00a0<\/p>\n

This is a very important function!\u00a0 It is also important to note that the metabolites from phase 1 can often be more toxic than the toxins that we started with, that is why it is so important to make sure you have the right components in place for phase 2 of liver detox as well as phase 1. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Are you confused yet?\u00a0 Don\u2019t be.\u00a0 My friend and colleague, Abigail Thurston and I will help break this all down into bite sized chews on Thursday May 30th at 8 pm. Hop on\u00a0\u00a0this FREE call<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0to learn about Common Foods in Your Kitchen and How You Can use them to help your liver detoxify.\u00a0 If you can\u2019t make it live, don\u2019t worry.\u00a0\u00a0Just register for the call Here\u00a0<\/a>and we will send you the recording after the class for you to listen to!<\/p>\n

What can you do at home now?<\/h3>\n

For now start drinking some water with lemon first thing in the morning. \u00a0Add lemon to your smoothies or juices. \u00a0Or make detox lemonade!<\/p>\n

Do you love your liver? \u00a0I mean really? \u00a0Do you appreciate all that it does for you? \u00a0Filtering out toxins, hormone clean up, making bile and aiding in digestion of fat, old red blood cells clean up and repackaging, storing excess glucose in the form of glycogen, and more!<\/p>\n

Did you know that your liver cleans out your blood after your digestive tract is done absorbing all the nutrients from the food\u00a0before<\/strong>\u00a0the rest of the body sees it? \u00a0Isn’t that cool? \u00a0Your liver is the body’s protector – a filter, cleaning anything out that might be problematic for your body’s organs.<\/p>\n

Spring is a great time of year to cleanse your liver. \u00a0In fact – it is the perfect time of year to cleanse your liver. \u00a0Everything that supports liver cleansing is coming up in nature – even the dandelions and the nettles are a reminder that it is time to spring clean out your most important organ.<\/p>\n

Start by getting you tush into a yoga class and request some twists to wring out that liver, get some toxins and stagnation out and fresh prana in there.<\/p>\n

As I promised last week, Abigail Thurston and I are so excited to share with you – our pride and joy, the\u00a0\u00a0Love Your Liver Cleanse<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0.
