Liver Cleanse

The liver is the largest detoxifying organ of the body. With all the demands placed on our livers to filter the many toxins we accumulate it's a good idea to periodically do a liver flush or cleanse.
Below are recipes for liver flushes to the different body types. Liver flushes can be done once a week for maintentance. If you know your liver is very congested, it's a good idea to follow up a liver flush with a colon cleanse to remove any excess toxins that were dumped into the colon as a result of the liver flush.

Coriander 1/2 tsp
Ginger, fresh 1/2 tsp

The Chopra Centre

I've just returned from the most amazing week in the Chopra Center California. Having qualified in Ayurvedic Health with the Chopra centre some years ago, I went to add to my qualification by becoming certified in Primordial Sound Meditation and all I can say is... WOW!

Although, we were put through the paces with 3 exams - including Sanskrit (and spelling counts!) the week reminded my why I started on this path in the first place. The love and support you receive and give feels safe, natural, detoxifying and most of all rejuvenating; giving you a renewed love of life.

Primordial Sound meditation is incredibly easy to learn and perfect for all those Vatas out there who think they could never meditate!

So,I encourage oyu - find a Primordial Sound teacher in your area - I work from the Howth area and have some city centre appointments also. Other teachers I can recommend are Mary Callahan & Mark Cleary. It's a life long gift to yourself and everyone you come into contact with.

As for the Chopra Center...since I've been back I've been getting comments like - have you lost weight? ...And the best yet from my other half.....You look ten years younger....aaahhhhh.
