2. Castor Oil Liver Packs Help You Sleep When Hormones Keep You Awake

Do you dread bedtime because you can’t sleep? Maybe you fall asleep, but you wake up throughout the night. Is this you?

Just like you, I used to wake up in the middle of the night and I didn’t know it at the time, but my liver was so overloaded with excess estrogen that it actually became my internal alarm clock, making it impossible for me to get a good night’s sleep. Can you relate?

You see, restorative sleep is important for maintaining balanced hormones because when you’re sleeping is when you start packing up excess hormones, high levels of cholesterol, heavy metals, and bacteria. Would you love to wake up each day ready to cleanse out all that junk?

Cleansing is kind of like a conveyor belt that keeps your body in flow, and the castor oil liver pack acts as a repair system for your conveyor belt so you can sleep better while your hormones cleanse and rebalance. Sounds refreshing, right?

Plus, the soft compression of the castor oil liver pack on the skin helps activate your ‘rest and digest’ state so your body naturally moves from the stressed-out state into the relaxed state- making it easier for you to fall asleep and stay asleep.

3. Castor Oil Liver Packs Help You Stress Less

Do you ever feel like you can’t relax? It’s ok, relaxation takes practice.

Just like you, I didn’t know what relaxed was, but that changed when I put the pack on my body. You see, the castor oil pack on the skin activates your relaxed, ‘parasympathetic’ state and stimulates your feel-good hormones, dopamine5 and oxytocin6. It kind of feels like a cozy hug. Sounds nice, right?

Plus, the more you release oxytocin, the easier it is for your body to naturally boost progesterone (because progesterone is high when stress hormone levels are low). Would you love lower stress levels?

You see, having balanced hormones is directly connected to regular bowel movements, cleansing while you sleep, and naturally relaxing.

Years ago, when I heard the words ‘estrogen dominance’ it made me stressed, so be gentle with yourself if you feel like your hormones are out of control.

Just like you, I needed an easy-gentle approach so that I could naturally rebalance my hormones and start waking up like new with my castor oil liver pack and you can do this too!
