Spring detoxification according to Chinese medicine
In TCM, April is the period when the liver, an organ associated with the free flow of Qi, is activated. It is an ideal time to cleanse the body, lighten your diet, and regenerate your emotions.
1. Support the liver with bitter flavors
Spring herbs, dandelion, milk thistle, or milk thistle help the liver get rid of toxic burdens.
2. Mox point LV3 - Tai Chong
This point ensures the free flow of energy in the liver pathway and helps with irritability or PMS.
3. Vegetable soups and steamed vegetables
Spring vegetables like leeks, carrots, pumpkin, or watercress relieve heat and moisturize dryness.
4. Emotional detox
The liver governs emotions, especially anger. Give yourself space for movement, breathing exercises, and forgiveness.
