18 Mar 9 Signs You Need a Spring Liver Cleanse

Remember that creative, balanced, colorful, self you used to be? Yeah, me neither some days.

A couple kids, a couple jobs, and way too many take-out dinners have come between you and your younger, energetic self. It’s time for a deep Spring cleaning.

But…

Before you jump on the juice cleanse bandwagon, consider taking a more radical step for deeper health gains.

Below the Surface
Americans pay millions every year for cleansing products that claim to boost the body’s power to ‘de-toxify’ and purge toxic waste.

Call me a skeptic. But 3 days of juicing and pooping are a pretty inadequate attempt to fix a lifetime of bad habits and all those environmental chemicals, absorbed and excreted along with your daily body waste.

What if you could really clean house? Get into those corners that never see the light of day. Yeah, deep tissue. But even deeper than that. Clean out all that toxic emotional waste that’s been dragging you down.

As Spring approaches, we come into the Wood element season, according to Chinese 5-element theory. Your Wood element organs are your Liver and Gallbladder. Some pretty fierce emotions come up when these organs are out of balance.

How do you know if your Liver or Gallbladder are out of harmony as Spring approaches?

9 Signs That You Need a Liver Cleanse:

1. You feel stuck and mildly depressed – you feel the need for change, but can’t take the first step.
2. You’ve lost your sense of direction or purpose in life – you’re asleep at life’s wheel.
3. People you love and trust often feel the brunt of your anger and arrogance.
4. You’re always making excuses for not taking steps to achieve your dream in life.
5. You feel especially irritated and crabby at everyone around you right now, for no particular reason.
6. It’s been years since you did something creative – write, paint, sing, act, dance.
7. You’ve been stubborn, inflexible, and unwilling to adapt to a new situation.
8. Black, brown, and gray are your main wardrobe colors (even if they ARE slimming).
9. Resentments over old injustices keep coming between you and others.
