Summer Solstice 2020

Let's Do It!
Time to prepare for a change in energy!

This special fasting period 21st -24th. Eating clean at the 4 quarters of the year synchronizes our body's and the many functions. All systems depend on how well the liver functions for their optimum functionality hence why quarterly detox aids the liver with its elimination and rejuvenation of blood, lymph, and other necessary bodily function.  The liver is also part of the immune system which is governed by our lungs, skin and intestines. As we approach the "hot and dry" energy of summer, we also start to lose a minute of daylight after the 24th. To ready ourselves, we cleanse, purify and strengthen our organs. 

Start eating clean a few days before the 21st to help build constitution help manage chronic health conditions. ​
