Imagine: You sustain a shoulder injury years ago. In order to avoid further trauma, the muscles surrounding your shoulder girdle took a much-needed rest. Over time though, they got into the habit of being lazy that was never corrected after the injury healed. And here you are, years later, still in pain with limited mobility. This is an example of what we call "Sensory Motor Amnesia". How do we address it?

Inflammation, break outs, acne ... The skin is a reflection of the blood and the blood a reflection of the liver. As the night-time janitor of the body, our liver is already doing a heckuva job. In addition to metabolizing and processing food, drinks, and medications, it is also responsible for digesting strong emotions such as anger, resentment, and frustration. If your liver is overtaxed, it's time to make it better with bitter! Bitter ghee has been used for centuries ...in Ayurvedic medicine to purify and support the liver. Consuming daily doses of medicated bitter ghee is a staple of the Spring Community Cleanse. This is how we reset, revitalize, and make amends with an overburdened liver. PS: tomorrow is the last day to register. #getonit
