Benefits of Liver and Gallbladder Flushing
The Liver and Gallbladder are organs of many functions, both physical and emotional. They work very closely together, achieving over 500 known functions connected to digestion and detoxification. The Liver and Gallbladder work together to ensure that the rest of the system functions properly.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, they process the emotion of anger and the energy of determination. They are directly linked to the Solar Plexus Chakra, the center of will-force and healthy self-esteem and ego.
One of The Holistic Method foundations is observing the connection between our emotions, thoughts, and physical well-being.
When we are angry, stressed, or want to ease a social situation, what are some of the things we do? Culturally the answer is to reach for a drink, a smoke, or our favorite fried, sweet, or fatty food. I have certainly done all of the above and more! It is essential to have decompression rituals, and none of them are necessarily wrong in moderation. But these seemingly harmless habits put a lot of strain on our body over time. They are a small band-aid over more profound issues. By addressing the source of our anger, frustration, or self-doubt, we begin to step into our full potential.
Suppose we do not find constructive ways of addressing the situations that make us angry. We search for relief in alcohol, drugs, or unhealthy foods and habits. Those emotions stay confined inside of us, and eventually, the Liver and Gallbladder become over-loaded. We begin to show signs of illness. Fatigue, digestive issues, skin rashes, acne, and abdominal pain are some of the few symptoms that can point to your Liver and Gallbladder needing a reboot.
According to Harvard Health Publishing, about a million Americans have their gallbladders surgically removed each year because the organ has become inflamed or contains gallstones. When you go through the Fresh Start Liver Flush, you empty the Gallbladder of gallstones and tone your Liver. Addressing our dietary and lifestyle habits can spare us invasive surgeries later.
Even if you are a very healthy eater and don't drink alcohol, smoke cigarettes, or do drugs, your Liver is still having to process all of the toxins that are a part of our modern daily living: plastic, pesticides, carbon monoxide, even the chemicals in our water.
We are exposed to so many toxins daily that cleansing is a beneficial practice that can boost the immune system and increase your whole body's overall functioning. Some of the many benefits of Liver and Gallbladder Cleansing are physical, mental, and emotional rejuvenation, healthier-looking and glowing skin, improved digestion, and creating healthier life habits. The Fresh Start Liver Flush is your chance to recalibrate your life.
Here are some simple things you can do to begin supporting the emotional aspect of your cleanse today.
Listen to your Anger!!
Anger is a signal that we are hurt; we aren't getting something we need, or someone has crossed a boundary that makes us uncomfortable.
There are two common ways of handling anger. People will allow their anger to explode, blaming others, or the emotion is suppressed and ignored in the hope of not challenging the status quo.
Both extremes are harmful. When we unload our rage on others, we are not taking responsibility for our experience. When we suppress those feelings, we do not honor ourselves, our needs, and our desires.
What if you let yourself feel that anger? What if you listen to those thoughts just as you would listen to an upset child? Your system is giving you some vital information that is vital for your happiness!
Examine the situation and see what needs to change. Is there a behavior that you have been tolerating in another person? Maybe it is a partner, friend, family member, or neighbor. What is it you need? How can you communicate those needs?
Process the Emotion before Communicating.
You can go for a walk, a run, do 100 push-ups, paint, dance, scream, punch a pillow, listen to death metal. I suggest you make it active. Sitting and watching Netflix is not processing your anger. Trust me, I have tried, and believe me, once the episode or movie is over, your anger is still there, needing to find an outlet.
Once you have worked off some steam, find a way to communicate your request to the person in a non-aggressive way. Put yourself in the other person's position. How would you wish them to share with you?
The people who we chose to have close in our lives want us to be happy. If someone does not honor your communication, needs, or boundaries, it might be time to reconsider the relationship.
Find Health Ways to Manage Stress
Stress is a part of life. There is always the next thing that throws us for a loop and turns everything upside down. Conflict is a part of life, and we cannot change that. We cannot predict or control what will happen to us. But we can decide how we choose to respond.
Take a step back and look at some of the ways that you handle stressful situations in your life. Some may be very life-affirming, such as working out, doing yoga, or meditating. Some of them might be more avoidance based. Try to take stock without judging yourself. Remember, life is a process, and we are all doing the best we can.
