DAY 2: NOURISH
Seasonally, Spring is the time to think of adding more leafy greens 🥦 🥬 🌿 🥑 🥒 onto your plate: rocket, sprouts, kale, lettuce, spinach… plus some sour flavours like lemon and apple cider vinegar, as this is flavour of the TCM season.
The Liver is seen to be responsible for the smooth flow of Qi (e n e r g y) throughout the body, and an important organ that helps with an internal Spring clean ✨ So these sour-flavours will give a punch to your digestive system and get everything moving!
All throughout the year we’re aiming for fresh, seasonal foods, but a nice Spring clean in this warmer weather seems so much more possible, doesn't it?! Why not support the body’s natural detoxification system and go easy on the dairy, sugar and processed foods this coming week?
Green smoothie anyone? Be sure to throw in some fresh ginger as well, to give it some warmth and keep the body strong (this change of season and the hot/cold/hot/cold days are prime for bugs to invade our bodies.. keep strong and well!).
