"You are not emptying yourself. You are making room. There is a difference, and it lives in the body." In Week Four of the March series, we arrive at the Waxing Gibbous Moon — luminous, nearly full, and ripening toward the Pink Moon just days away — and talk about two of the most quietly powerful spring herbs growing right now outside your door: cleavers and dandelion. This episode explores what traditional spring cleansing actually was (and wasn't), how the lymphatic system and liver move with the season, and how to practice detox as a relationship with the natural world rather than a rule imposed from outside. Includes simple preparation instructions for the cleavers cold infusion and dandelion root decoction.
