I am on the 4th day of juice fasting and tonight I will drink the liver flush concoction (translation, olive oil and grapefruit juice) and expect a lot (and I mean lots) of gallbladder stones to come out tomorrow morning.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the liver is connected to the emotion anger.  So a liver cleanse could naturally translate to cleaning up deep-seated anger.

Many times I’d been told, mostly by romantic partners but never by friends, that I am an angry person.  This is quite unusual for a yogini, healthy, environment-loving person that I am.  But yes, I do know that there is that anger in me that needs to be acknowledged, loved, and released.

In my ‘meantime’

8th day into my Master Cleanse and I still feel so energetic.  I don’t feel hungry at all.  A bit emotional, yes, but that’s part of the cleanse.

I do physical cleansing whenever I need to clear my thoughts.  It’s the same in yoga – you hold one pose for a period of time to still the body in the hopes that you will eventually be able to still the mind.

As they always say, how you do one thing is how you do everything.  So regular body cleansing translates to regular mind clearing.
