In this episode, we give our livers a little love. A solo ep about my liver health journey over the last year. We talk about emotional bitterness and anger reflecting liver congestion. We make the link between estrogen dominance and an overburdened liver. We cover the balance between bile production and stomach acid (the root of the gut-liver connection), HTMAs, supplementing with bitters and TUDCA, mineral balancing protocols, and even...yes...coffee enemas and floating stool as a sign of poor fat absorption.If you're TTC and are worried about estrogen dominance, you're going to want to consider the liver. My liver stack:+ Casc Tonics Daily Bitter+ Lifeblud TUDCA Max+Niecia Nelson HTMAGet in touch on IG: @phoebeelyman

There are MANY reasons for gut inflammation, pelvic tension, and low lung capacity (like infection, muscle atrophy or hypertrophy, and gut dysbiosis, for example), but these reasons are even MORE foundational. Societal and personal energetic drivers of pelvic and abdominal tension lay the foundation for poor fluid dynamic, poor lymphatics, gut dysbiosis, and pelvic inflammation to even occur in the first place.
