Dry Brushing for Health
by Victoria
As you get into the habit of exercising, start the habit of dry brushing too! It takes just a few minutes a day and it will help your immune system tremendously, smooth and tighten the skin and reduce the appearance of cellulite if done consistently.
With this virus season upon us, we need to keep our bodies strong by encouraging the elimination of toxins from out systems. Do give dry brushing a try if you have not already. Your body will love it and your skin will tighten up and begin to crave it.
Dry brushing provides the following benefits:
- tightens skin
- improves digestion
- removes cellulite
- stimulates circulation
- increases cell renewal
- cleans the lymphatic system
- removes dead skin layers
- strengthens immune system
- stimulates the glands
- helps all of the body systems perform at peak efficiency
Dry skin brushing stimulates the lymph canals to drain toxic mucoid matter into the colon, thereby purifying the entire lymphatic system. This enables the lymph to perform its house-cleaning duties by keeping the blood and other vital tissues detoxified.
Most people today have chronically toxic lymph fluids and swollen lymph nodes, a condition which promotes toxicity throughout the system by robbing the lymph of its power to clean the blood and cellular fluids. It is important to stimulate the lymph glands daily to assist your body in the elimination of toxins. In addition, dry brushing is highly stimulating to the skins surface. It increases the circulation of blood and leaves you feeling invigorated.
Dry brushing needs to be done once every day, preferably first thing in the morning. It is quick and easy to do and takes only a couple of minutes. Do dry brushing before you step into the shower. Make it a habit just like brushing your teeth. If you're feeling sluggish, toxic, or ill, you may want to do it twice a day.
Move and brush your body starting today. Get into the habit and you will see results. You will look and feel better than you've felt in ages!
