Renewal for the Liver and Gall Bladder

Everyone naturally feels inclined to do some "Spring Cleaning
" after the inward journey of winter. For most people it's the easiest time of the year to do intensive cleansing. The organs that are associated with Spring are the liver and gall bladder. The liver is the powerhouse detoxifier of your body. The liver is responsible for neutralizing toxins and preparing them for release through the
intestines and kidneys. It synthesizes vitamins and stores minerals from the nutrients it receives through the blood supply of the intestines. It is also instrumental in processing hormones. The gall bladder regulates the flow of bile into the digestive tract and greatly determines the efficacy of fat digestion. According to Chinese Medicine the liver and gall bladder are associated with the emotions of anger and joy. Anger
is a normal human emotion and can serve us if we channel it in a healthy direction and let it go. Learning to properly process anger will keep your liver and gall bladder happy and healthy and open the door to the experience of joy. The color associated with spring is GREEN. This is reflected in nature all around you as you witness the
explosion of buds on the trees and bushes. It is also reflected in a healthy diet with the introduction of more fresh vegetables and sprouts. Green foods have an alkalizing effect on the body and give one a more expansive feeling. They also assist the body in detoxification. So go ahead and GO GREEN this season. Your liver will thank you!

It is important to allow your creativity to flow without inhibitions or hesitations. Join us at the Tummy Temple for a rejuvenating cleanse this season.
