Spring Cleaning Inside and Out

4/12/2018

We are officially in Spring, and with that comes Spring Cleaning!  Last month I shared a couple videos about nourishing and cleansing the liver, an "internal" spring cleaning. We are continuing on that theme today.

Cleanse your body and your home

Fresh and lively is how we want to enter into spring!  We do this by using natural cleansers for our home and our body. Here are a couple recipes that you might use to liven up your body and your home! 

The first is a calming Love Your Liver Syrup that you can easily make at home following this video. Every year I make it a little differently with my classes.  Taking care of your liver can taste good. It is easier than you think!

The second is a facial cleansing scrub that helps tighten up pores and sluff off old skin. We make this recipe in my herbal intensive class that is based on Rosemary Gladstar’s Miracle Grains recipe.

Blend together the following and store in glass jar.
2 cups white clay
1 cup finely ground oats
¼ cup finely ground almonds
¼ cup finely ground lavender
1/8 cup finely ground rose
When you are ready to use mix 2 tsp with a bit of water in the palm of your hand. Gently massage the paste on your face. Rinse when finished.
 
The next recipe is one to cleanse the air in your home and is a Disinfectant Room Spray.

Blend the following in a small spritzer bottle.
1 oz water
1 drop peppermint essential oil
1 drop tea tree essential oil
2 drops pine essential oil
2 drops bergamot (or other citrus) essential oil
3 drops eucalyptus essential oil
Shake well before use. Apply to hard surfaces that need disinfected or into the air in your home.  *Use with caution if you have cats in the home.  *Occasional use around children is fine.

Allergies

Spring is the most anticipated time of year after a long, cold winter like we have had. We are ready to clean out our homes and let in the fresh air. We are also wanting to get outside and get moving!  For some people though, chirping spring birds does not herald such uplifting energy.  Outside isn’t such a great place if you have allergies.  And more than a few people emerge from winter feeling heavy and already battling allergies. They need a boost!

In my recent Facebook videos I have been talking about signs of liver imbalance that can vary from spring sinus allergies, fatigue, skin conditions, menstrual irregularities, PMS, frustration, and anxiety. In Chinese medicine, all of these concerns are partially blamed on the liver.  A spring liver nourish plan or a detox plan may be called for!  If you are suffering know that these are not issues that you have to live with, I would be happy to help and it is as easy as scheduling a consultation!

I have taken time out to thank someone who cured me from HPV with herbal medicine! It became a major problem for me as it was affecting my daily life as I was no longer comfortable so I decided to look for a solution and I came across several posts about how Dr Guba a herbal man has been helping people on the same problem then I quickly contacted the herbal man and told him my experience with HPV" he prepared and send me his herbal medicine to drink, after everything I found out that all was okay with me and that my Herpes problem was gone after testing negative several times, this is why I have come out today to say thanks to him and for others to also believe that there’s cure for HPV. Contact him today on his Email: [email protected] WhatsApp: + 234 816 238 8034 You can also go through his website: https://drgubahealingherbs.wixsite.com/guba-healing-herbs

Am using this opportunity to thank Dr. Guba is a grateful thing to me, for over years I have been sick with Hepatitis B disease, I have done a lot of things to get cured of my diseases and nothing has worked out. I have taken different types of medication for it , but it still doesn’t work for me. I still keep going for a check up so that the doctor will tell me my disease has be gone, because i’m taking my medicine with no result nothing has been cured, I have spent a lot of money just to get cure of Hepatitis B. until my old time friend came to my place and saw what am going through, and then direct me to contact Dr. Guba who is a very powerful man, which I did explain my problem to Dr. Guba and send me a herbal remedy bottle and explain to me how I should drink it. So I started to drink the herbal tea in one week that I drink the herbal tea. I went for a check up to check if I’m cured from Hepatitis B disease, then the nurse told me nothing is wrong with me anymore and said I’m fine. I am the happiest person right now. I promise Dr. Guba I will testify about his good work on the internet. Reach out to Him Via: [email protected] Thank you so much sir for what you did for me you’re the best of all.
