Description
Summer is the perfect time for detoxing. With longer days and warmer
temperatures, it’s easier to get outdoors and enjoy the fresh air and sunshine.
Plus, the summer months provide a bounty of fresh fruits and vegetables that are
naturally detoxifying and delicious.
Some of the benefits of detoxing in the summer include:
● Cleansing our bodies from toxins and helping us feel more energized and
vibrant.
● Relaxing our minds from stress and helping us unwind with outdoor
activities like hiking, swimming, or yoga classes.
● Boosting our immune systems to fight off germs during the busy travel
season.
Each season we focus on detoxing and revitalizing different organs with the
seasonal bounty Mother Nature provides. Seasonal detoxes are an essential part
of my practice plus a vital part of my life.
The summer is about slowing down and taking a vacation from life. In Chinese
medicine, we celebrate cleansing the heart and the small intestine during this
season.
The heart is the queen of your body. A healthy heart is a healthy body. When
the heart is not pumping blood properly, circulation is poor, and constipation
occurs, as do varicose veins, headaches, and lack of energy.
During summer detoxification, ridding yourself of the emotional and physical
blockages you’re experiencing will help cleanse your heart.
