As nature begins to bloom, the body follows. At C’est Madeleine, we believe that our bodies are intimately connected to the rhythms of the seasons and spring is a time of gentle awakening, detoxification, and renewal. But did you know that in traditional wellness systems, spring is considered the season of the liver? Supporting this vital organ during this time can have a profound impact on your skin, your energy, and your overall sense of clarity.
Here’s why spring is the perfect time to focus on your liver and how light, colour, and nature can support you in the most beautiful way.
The Liver and Spring: An Ancient Connection
In Traditional Chinese Medicine and other ancestral healing philosophies, the liver is the organ most closely connected to spring. It is seen as the body's primary filter, responsible not only for detoxification but for the free flow of energy and emotions.
After the slower, heavier rhythms of winter, the liver naturally becomes more active as the days grow longer and lighter. This makes spring an ideal time to support it gently, encouraging the body to release what it no longer needs and make space for renewal physically, emotionally, and energetically.
Why Supporting the Liver Matters for Beauty
The liver plays a key role in skin health. When it's overburdened or sluggish, toxins can build up in the bloodstream and the skin, our largest detox organ, often tries to compensate. This can lead to dullness, breakouts, irritation, and uneven tone.
By giving the liver a little extra care in spring, you’re not only helping your body reset, you’re also giving your skin a chance to breathe, clear, and glow naturally.
Yellow Light: The Colour of Spring, the Colour of the Liver
Just as spring brings yellow blooms and sunshine, yellow light in LED therapy is associated with the liver and the solar plexus. It’s a light that energises, stimulates lymphatic flow, and brightens tired or congested skin.
Our Lumière™ LED Mask includes a yellow light setting that’s especially powerful for spring. In just a few relaxing sessions each week, yellow light can help to:
• Stimulate circulation and detox pathways
• Brighten and tone dull skin
• Soothe sensitivity or puffiness
• Support emotional clarity and energy
It’s a ritual that reconnects you with your own natural rhythm light, gentle, and deeply effective. We advice to use the yellow light setting of your mask 3 times a week for 20 minutes for 4 weeks.
Simple Ways to Support Your Liver This Spring
You don’t need a strict cleanse to feel renewed. Spring is about softness and balance. Here are a few gentle ways to align with the season:
• Warm lemon water in the morning to awaken digestion
• Bitter greens like dandelion, rocket, and artichoke to support liver function
• Herbs and supplements like milk thistle, turmeric, or chicory root
• Deep breathing and daily movement, especially in nature
• Rest and sunlight, to encourage circadian balance and mood
Honouring the Body’s Natural Cycles
At C’est Madeleine, we believe that true beauty begins by listening, not forcing. The body moves in cycles that reflect the earth, the seasons, and something deeper within. When we support these transitions with awareness and care, the results are visible in our skin, in our energy, and in how we feel each day.
