Spring Cleaning of the Body

Today, David and I began Dr. Schulze's 5-Day Liver Detox, after having completed Dr. Schultze's 5-Day Bowel Cleanse last week. The liver cleanse program requires that we prepare and drink various liver cleansing and detoxifying herbal liquid concoctions. The first and the last days of the cleanse we eat only raw organic vegetables and fruit in addition to the fluids. The middle 3 days, we do not consume solid foods -- only drink fluids consisting of herbal teas, diluted vegetable and fruit juice, and a potassium broth we home brew with organic potato shavings, carrots, beets, onions, garlic, and kale.

Today, we also began our final stretch of casting for the Chicago/US tour. This week we are seeing actors for principal roles. The day went well, despite our envy of our colleagues' warm, protein-ful lunches along the way. David is very excited about our doing this cleanse, and I am grateful that I have my very own personal herbalist -- kind of like a personal trainer!
