Detox Bath and Pre-Spring Cleansing hints

(You may be thinking to yourself . . . "Robin my goodness, it's so cold how can you think about Pre-Spring cleansing" well last year Cypress (AZ time started pollinating early around the 10th of February), the one that usually gets my attention. Fortunately I listened to my inner sonar and started my cleanse just before the first and finished around the time the Cypress started throwing her pollen. Saved! Just a few helpful hints in advance as time moves as fast our as manifestations now . . . Make a wish :) ♥

Milk Thistle "Silybum marianum"

Milk Thistle assists in the protection, regeneration and restorative function of the liver. A great addition to any cleansing regiment!

 


DETOX BATH
Mix these ingredients into your tub. The Ginger will assist in opening pores so that the skin may more readily sweat and detoxify.

1 lb - Epsom Salts
2 cups - Sea Salt
1 qt. - Apple cider vinegar
3 Tablespoons/finely grated - Ginger

SPRING CLEANSING HINTS

Drink WATER

Shots of wheat grass (1oz. a day is plenty, otherwise :(~)

This is not a complete source but you get the idea! I will start my annual cleanse in February. Cleansing the body, mind and soul of unwanted toxins, outdated thoughts and renewing my spirit. Cleansing helps create new patterns by simply changing your daily regiment; switching it up is always good for sharpening and transforming your perception. Your senses, thoughts and feelings are refreshed thereby offering possible new awareness, insight, and intuition; a new guidance system that creates more synchronicity and positive change within your life. Most people notice an increase in energy and general happy feeling :) Maybe not while you are in Detox stage, however that will not last long, "hang in there". Cleansing is extremely effective for those who suffer seasonal allergies!

Good Luck, Much LOVE and Spring On
