Mango and Lemon Balm Rush

I love waking up to a new day, able to have time to do my stretches and some QiQong. With that in mind, I always like to have a healthy nutritious breakfast and today I was in the mood for a juice. I made a one of a kind juice filled with loving sweetness that awakened the body, nurtured my soul and cleansed the mind. I love it when everything works in sync.

It's amazing how something so simple can have an enormous affect on a being. I included lemon balm because it is one of my favorite herbs growing up and drinking it's fresh hand picked tea. Lemon balm is good for the nervous system, as it reduces stress of any kind calming the body and mind. I used cabbage and carrot for their source in Vitamin C, and Mango for it's phytochemicals and nutrient properties. All in all they seemed to work quite well, giving both the sweetness and consistency of the juice.
