Rodgers said he just came out from a 12-day cleansecalled panchakarma. “I just came out of a 12-day cleanse where you’re in a specific diet and you’re going through these treatments every day. You don’t really do anything else, you got to kind of turn everything else off, you’re not working out, you’re not straining or anything, it’s kind of re-centering… So when I come out my first though is this intense gratitude for the people in my life.
“I was going through some old pictures from the last year and felt an intense amount of gratitude for the life that I have, and for the lessons that I’ve learned and for the growth that’s happened over the last year and the people who’ve been a part of that journey,” Rodgers added.
