As the seasons shift and we welcome in the renewal of spring, it’s the perfect time to reset—not just our homes and routines, but our bodies too. A spring detox isn't about harsh cleanses or deprivation. Instead, it's about giving your body the gentle support it needs to refresh your system, clear out what’s no longer serving you, and create space for better energy, digestion, and clarity.

Why Detox in the Spring?

In traditional herbalism, spring is associated with the liver—the body's primary organ for processing and eliminating toxins. After a long winter of heavier foods, less movement, and maybe more comfort eating, our systems can feel sluggish. A spring detox helps:

Stimulate digestion and regularity
Support liver and kidney function
Reduce bloating and water retention
Improve skin clarity and energy levels
Boost the immune system before allergy season kicks in

Safe, Gentle, and Effective Herbs for Detox

The goal is to support the body’s natural detoxification—not to force it. Here are a few of our favorite herbs for a nourishing, effective spring cleanse:

🌿 Dandelion Leaf

A natural diuretic that gently flushes excess water and supports the kidneys. Dandelion is also rich in minerals and supports liver detoxification.

🌿 Nettle Leaf

Nettle is a powerhouse plant that helps reduce inflammation and clear the blood. It's great for seasonal allergies, too.

🌿 Milk Thistle

Known for protecting liver cells and supporting regeneration, milk thistle is one of the best herbs to nourish and support liver function.

🌿 Peppermint

Soothes the digestive tract, encourages proper bile flow, and reduces gas and bloating—making you feel lighter and more energized.

🌿 Licorice Root

Naturally sweet and supportive to the adrenal glands, licorice helps the body adapt to stress while also easing inflammation in the gut.

🌿 Ginger Root

Warms the system, stimulates circulation, and aids digestion. Ginger helps break down food and move toxins out efficiently.

How to Detox Without the Crash

We don’t believe in crash cleanses or extreme fasting. Instead, try incorporating a daily detox tea blend, drinking plenty of water, eating whole foods, and moving your body in ways that feel good. Just one to two cups of herbal detox tea a day—especially in the morning on an empty stomach—can support gentle cleansing and healthy digestion without stripping your body of nutrients or energy.
