7 Herbs That Can Help You Get Ready For Spring
I am reposting this blog from last April with some updates. Still true and more relevant than ever.
In the winter we can build up and store congestion, mucous and toxins in our bodies.
Spring cleaning the inside of our bodies can be just as refreshing, lightening and energizing as the spring cleaning we do in our homes. After all, how often do you wash your hands or take a shower to clean the outside of our bodies?
Here’s 7 herbs that can help lighten up and renew your whole body from the inside out.
Good anytime of year. Lovely in the springtime.
Take them individually, make your own herbal tonic or enjoy our Spring Tonic bottled and ready for you. Enjoy!
