THE LYMPHATIC SYSTEM OF A GRIEVER 🌿

Post 5/30: When Shock Breaks the Heart

There are moments in life that don’t just shake you.
They break you open.

I remember standing in my practice, trying to continue with my day, when the world suddenly tilted. My chest tightened. My breath disappeared. My legs gave way beneath me. One moment I was upright. The next I was on the floor, unable to move.

At 33 years old, I was diagnosed with Broken Heart Syndrome. 💔

People think heartbreak is emotional.
But sometimes heartbreak is medical.
Sometimes human grief is so severe that it physically stuns the heart.

And that’s only the beginning of the story.

When trauma takes you to ICU

Those days are blurry, but the fear is unforgettable.
I spent more than eight days in Cardiac ICU —
Eight days attached to machines.
Eight days listening to monitors beep.
Eight days sleeping under bright lights because they never turn off.
Eight days of doctors watching my numbers because they weren’t stable.
Eight days of fearing that if I closed my eyes, I might not open them again.

Nothing prepares you for seeing your own heart on a screen and realising that it’s barely keeping rhythm.

Nothing prepares you for the moment you wonder if your life is quietly ending in a hospital bed.

And nothing prepares you for surviving it…
and then trying to live in the same body afterwards.

How shock and ICU trauma change the body

Trauma doesn’t leave when you leave the ward.
It settles inside your systems.

When you experience extreme emotional shock plus the physical intensity of Cardiac ICU, several things happen:

💔 The heart becomes stunned
💔 The nervous system goes into permanent survival mode
💔 The lymphatic system slows dramatically
💔 Organ rhythms change
💔 Inflammation remains high for months

This is why grievers often say:
“I feel swollen.”
“My chest hurts randomly.”
“My gut is not the same.”
“My face looks puffy.”
“I’m exhausted all the time.”
“I don’t trust my own body anymore.”

You’re not imagining it.
ICU changes you.
Shock changes you.
Grief changes you.

Why the lymphatic system suffers so deeply

The lymphatic system is the silent witness to trauma.

During extreme stress and fear, your body releases:

• High cortisol
• Adrenaline surges
• Inflammatory proteins
• Stress metabolites
• Cellular waste
• Fluid-shifting hormones

Your lymph has to process all of this.
But when you’re traumatised, the lymph slows down, thickens, becomes sluggish and overwhelmed.

This is why:
✨ swelling increases
✨ water retention rises
✨ your gut becomes inflamed
✨ your face changes
✨ chronic pain begins
✨ fatigue becomes daily

Your lymph remembers the fear you carried in that bed.

Why it lasts so long

Because the body does not reset after trauma.
It protects.
It guards.
It adapts.

Your heart beats differently.
Your breath becomes shallow.
Your vagus nerve becomes tight.
Your organs move slower.
Your lymph becomes heavier.
Your chemistry stays in alert mode.

This is not weakness.
It is survival intelligence. 🕊️

If this is your story too

If you’ve ever stood in shock, fainted, collapsed, or spent nights in a hospital wondering whether your heart will keep beating…

If you’ve walked out of ICU but your body never returned to “normal,” please hear me clearly:

You are not dramatic.
You are not broken.
You are not failing.

Your body lived through trauma.
Your heart endured terror.
Your lymph carried the weight of fear.
Your organs adapted so you could survive.

This is not the end of your story.
Your body can come back from this.
Your heart can regrow its strength.
Your lymph can flow again.
Your organs can remember peace.
Your nervous system can learn safety again.

You are not the same person who entered ICU.
But you are becoming someone stronger, wiser and deeply alive. 🌿

And this series is for you.
To help your body release what it has been holding for far too long.

🎈 Bra’s & Your Lymphatic System 🎈

By Bianca Botha, CLT, RLD, MLDT, CDS

We wear them. We fight with them. We secretly fling them across the room the second we get home. Yes—bras. But have you ever thought about what your bra is doing to your lymphatic system? 👀

Your lymphatic system is your body’s quiet cleaning crew—working 24/7 to clear out waste, keep your immune system sharp, and make sure your fluids are flowing smoothly. So what happens when your bra joins the party? Let’s break it down with some science… and a little humor.

🎈 1. Restriction of Lymphatic Flow

That tight underwire bra? Think of it like putting a traffic jam on your body’s natural “highway of healing.” 🚦
When lymph nodes under your arms or around your chest get squished, the lymph fluid can’t drain properly. This can leave your body feeling a little “clogged up”—like forgetting to take the trash out for a week.

🎈 2. Lymphatic Drainage Areas

Your axillary lymph nodes (those little bean-shaped nodes in your armpits) are responsible for draining fluid from your chest, breasts, and arms. If your bra is too tight here, it’s like closing the exit ramps on a busy freeway. No one likes a road closure—especially your lymph! 🚧

🎈 3. Breast Health

Healthy lymph flow = happy breasts. 🌸
Some researchers suggest that when lymph flow is restricted, it might contribute to breast tenderness or swelling. While the science is still evolving, one thing’s for sure: your breasts will thank you for letting them breathe.

🎈 4. Fitting and Material

Bras aren’t the enemy—it’s the wrong bra that causes drama. 🕵️‍♀️
Opt for well-fitted bras made from breathable fabric. If your bra leaves red marks like it’s trying to brand you, that’s your sign to size up or switch styles.

🎈 5. Movement = Lymphatic Flow

Here’s the fun part: your lymph LOVES movement. Jumping, dancing, stretching, laughing—yes, even laughing—helps keep lymph fluid flowing. 😂
So if your bra is so tight that you can’t bust out a dance move or reach for the top shelf, it’s time for a rethink.

Fun Fact 🎉

Did you know? Some women call that magical moment of unclipping their bra the “second coming of oxygen.” And guess what? Your lymphatic system probably agrees.

✨ Takeaway: Bras should support, not strangle. Choose comfort, let your lymph flow, and remember—it’s not you, it’s the bra.

🫶✨ The Lymphatic System of a Griever

Post 4/30 — The Weight of Silence

There are wounds the world never sees.
The ones you bury so deeply inside yourself that even your own breath feels too loud around them.
Tonight’s piece is for every soul who has ever carried a trauma so heavy, so unspeakable, that your body learned to whisper what your mouth could not. 🕊️

There comes a moment in grief, in shock, in survival, where your entire system shuts down to protect you.
Your mind freezes.
Your breath flattens.
Your chest tightens.
Your body becomes a shelter from a storm it never asked to weather. 🌧️

And somewhere in that silence, your lymphatic system becomes a witness to the pain you don’t yet have words for. 💚

When trauma hits your nervous system, it hits your lymphatic system too.
Stress hormones rise.
Your vagus nerve constricts.
Your body prepares for danger long after the danger is gone.
Your lymphatic vessels slow.
Inflammation grows quietly.
Weight begins to shift, not because you are weak, not because you don’t care, but because your body has shifted into survival mode. ⚡

Trauma steals more than peace
It steals sleep 😔
It steals hormones
It steals digestion
It steals lymphatic flow

Many of us don’t talk about how a broken heart can become a swollen body.
We don’t talk about how fear can feel like pressure behind the collarbones.
We don’t talk about how grief can sit in the abdomen like a stone.
We don’t talk about how the body holds on when the soul is exhausted. 🫂

But I saw it in myself.
The night my world changed, my body changed with it.
I watched myself move differently.
I watched fatigue crawl in where energy used to live.
I watched insomnia take over nights that used to be peaceful.
My weight shifted without warning.
Food became both comfort and punishment.
My lymphatic flow slowed down so much that I felt swollen from the inside out. 💔

Trauma doesn’t just scar the heart.
It rewires biology.
It rewrites hormones.
It reshapes the physical body in ways most people never understand.

🧠✨ A moment of education: What trauma does to your glymphatic system

The glymphatic system is your brain’s waste-clearance network — the nighttime cleansing pathway that flushes out toxins, inflammatory proteins and metabolic waste while you sleep.
But trauma changes that.

Trauma keeps the brain in survival mode.
It stops the nervous system from dropping into deep, slow-wave sleep — the only time the glymphatic system can fully open.
Without deep sleep:
CSF flow slows
Toxins accumulate
Neuroinflammation rises
Brain fog worsens
Memory becomes heavy
And you wake up feeling unrefreshed even after hours of sleep 😞

Your brain isn’t broken.
Your glymphatic system has simply not felt safe enough to rest.
This is biology doing everything it can to protect you.

💚✨ Returning to the heart of the piece

If you are reading this and you feel like your body has betrayed you, please hear me:
It hasn’t.
Your body has only been trying to protect you.
And protection sometimes looks like holding on.
Holding fluid.
Holding inflammation.
Holding weight.
Holding memories your brain couldn’t process.
Holding the pieces of you until you feel safe enough to breathe again. 🌿

Healing begins the moment you recognise that your body is not the enemy.
Your body has been carrying a story too heavy for you alone.

Tonight’s piece is for the ones who survived.
The ones who kept walking with broken lymphatic flow, broken glymphatic flow, broken sleep, broken hormones, broken hearts.
The ones who are slowly learning that healing is not about getting your old body back.
It is about loving the body that kept you alive. ❤️‍🩹

You are not behind.
You are not failing.
You are still here.
And your body, your brain, your lymph, your spirit
are ready for a gentler chapter. 🌙

Your healing is coming.
And this time, you do not walk alone. 🤍

Let’s Talk About Armpit Lymph Nodes!
The Mighty Axillary Warriors of Your Immune System 🌿🦠🩷

Your armpits aren’t just for deodorant and razors — they’re home to some of your body’s most powerful immune protectors: the axillary lymph nodes!

What Are Axillary Lymph Nodes?

Axillary lymph nodes are bean-shaped structures located in the armpit (axilla) that form a key part of the lymphatic system — your body’s drainage, detox, and defense network. These nodes filter lymph (a fluid rich in white blood cells) and trap harmful substances like bacteria, viruses, toxins, and even cancer cells.

There are typically 20 to 40 lymph nodes in each armpit. These nodes are grouped into five anatomical levels, each with distinct drainage responsibilities.

The Five Groups of Axillary Lymph Nodes:
1. Pectoral (Anterior) Group
• Location: Along the lower border of the pectoralis major muscle
• Drainage Area: Breast, anterior thoracic wall
• Fun Fact: These nodes are key in breast cancer monitoring!
2. Subscapular (Posterior) Group
• Location: Along the lower margin of the scapula (shoulder blade)
• Drainage Area: Upper back, posterior shoulder, and neck
3. Humeral (Lateral) Group
• Location: Along the humerus (upper arm bone)
• Drainage Area: Upper limb
• Fun Fact: These are the ones that may swell when your arm is injured or infected!
4. Central Group
• Location: Near the base of the axilla (deep in the center)
• Drainage Area: Collects lymph from pectoral, subscapular, and humeral groups
5. Apical Group
• Location: At the top of the axilla near the clavicle (collarbone)
• Drainage Area: Receives lymph from all the other axillary groups and drains into the subclavian lymphatic trunk

Where Does the Lymph Flow?
• After filtration through the axillary groups, lymph travels to the apical nodes, then drains into the subclavian trunk, and finally enters the venous circulation near the heart (via the right lymphatic duct or thoracic duct on the left side).
• This allows your body to return filtered lymph to the bloodstream while neutralizing any harmful intruders.

Why Are Axillary Lymph Nodes Important?
• Immune Defense: Full of lymphocytes (B and T cells), they identify and destroy pathogens.
• Cancer Monitoring: Oncologists often biopsy or remove axillary nodes to check for cancer spread, especially in breast cancer staging.
• Detox Drainage: They assist in the drainage of waste products, inflammatory debris, and excess interstitial fluid.

Signs of Swollen Axillary Nodes:
• Tenderness
• Swelling or a lump in the armpit
• Fever or signs of infection
Swollen nodes often indicate your immune system is actively fighting something!

Fun Lymph Facts:
• Lymph has no pump! It relies on movement (like walking, deep breathing, and rebounding) to flow — which is why dry brushing and lymphatic massage can help!
• You have more lymph than blood! Your lymphatic system contains about 1.5 times more fluid than your circulatory system.
• The word “lymph” comes from the Latin lympha, meaning water — a perfect name for a fluid that brings life-giving immunity!

Takeaway:
Your armpit lymph nodes are immune superheroes — silently working day and night to filter, defend, and drain. Keeping them moving and healthy is a big step in supporting overall wellness. So next time you move your arm, remember the little green defenders in your underarm working hard for you! 💪🌿✨

🌙 The Link Between the Lymphatic System and Restless Leg Syndrome

Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS), also called Willis–Ekbom disease, is a neurological condition characterized by an irresistible urge to move the legs, often with uncomfortable sensations such as tingling, crawling, pulling, or burning. These symptoms are most pronounced at night or when the body is at rest, leading to disrupted sleep, fatigue, and reduced quality of life.

While RLS is most often discussed in terms of dopamine dysregulation and iron deficiency, growing evidence suggests that the lymphatic system — both in the body and the brain — may be closely linked to symptom development and severity.

🔬 1. Lymphatic Congestion in the Lower Extremities

The legs contain some of the largest and most gravity-challenged lymphatic pathways in the body. When lymphatic drainage is impaired:
• Fluid retention occurs in the interstitial tissues.
• Metabolic waste products accumulate, irritating peripheral nerves.
• Microcirculatory stagnation develops, contributing to the heaviness, cramping, or tingling sensations often reported in RLS.

Chronic venous insufficiency, edema, and sluggish lymph flow have been documented as more common in individuals with RLS, suggesting a shared circulatory-lymphatic imbalance.

💡 2. Inflammation, Cytokines, and Nerve Irritation

RLS has been associated with systemic inflammation and endothelial dysfunction. The lymphatic system is the primary “waste management” system for inflammatory cytokines, immune complexes, and cell debris. If lymph flow is stagnant:
• Inflammatory molecules accumulate, irritating sensory nerves.
• Oxidative stress increases, impairing mitochondrial function in muscle and nerve tissue.
• The blood-nerve barrier may become compromised, making nerves more sensitive.

This may explain why many people with RLS describe worsening of symptoms in states of inflammation (such as after heavy meals, alcohol, or exposure to stress).

🩸 3. Iron, Dopamine, and Lymphatic Support

One of the most consistent findings in RLS research is low brain iron, particularly in regions regulating dopamine. Iron plays dual roles:
• It supports neurotransmitter synthesis (dopamine, serotonin).
• It regulates immune and detox processes.

Poor lymphatic clearance and gut dysfunction (including “leaky gut” or impaired absorption) may contribute to poor mineral transport and utilization, leaving tissues depleted even when dietary intake seems sufficient.

🌬 4. The Glymphatic System and Nighttime Restlessness

The brain has its own lymphatic-like system — the glymphatic system — which clears waste products during deep sleep.
• Impaired glymphatic clearance has been linked to sleep disorders, neuroinflammation, and toxin buildup.
• Since RLS symptoms typically worsen at night, this may reflect a link between glymphatic dysfunction, poor detox, and nerve irritability.
• Inadequate glymphatic flow is worsened by dehydration, poor sleep posture, and systemic inflammation.

🦵 5. Muscular & Fascial Tension as a Lymphatic Block

The lymphatic system runs through fascial compartments. Chronic muscle tightness, fascial adhesions, or poor posture can:
• Mechanically compress lymphatic channels.
• Limit venous return, worsening tissue congestion.
• Increase nerve firing in the legs (since compressed fascia and nerves often misfire together).

This explains why many RLS patients feel relief with stretching, massage, or movement — because these actions mechanically improve both lymph flow and nerve balance.

🌿 6. Supportive Approaches for RLS & Lymphatic Health

Lifestyle & Self-Care
• Movement before bed: Gentle walking, stretching, or calf pumps improve venous and lymph return.
• Elevating the legs: Gravity assists fluid return, reducing congestion.
• Hydration & minerals: Magnesium, potassium, and electrolytes support both nerve and vessel function.

Therapies
• Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD): Encourages lymph movement, reduces inflammatory load, and relieves tissue pressure.
• Castor oil packs: Promote circulation and reduce inflammation in abdominal/leg lymphatics.
• Heat & contrast therapy: Warm baths or alternating hot/cold showers activate both lymphatic and vascular tone.

Sleep & Nervous System
• Deep diaphragmatic breathing: Stimulates the thoracic duct, improving drainage from the legs.
• Sleep posture: Side-lying with a pillow between the knees supports circulation and reduces nerve compression.
• Sauna or sweating therapies: Help eliminate toxins that may irritate nerves (secondary but supportive pathway).

🌙 Conclusion

Restless Leg Syndrome is not only a neurological or mineral issue — it may also reflect a lymphatic–circulatory imbalance. Sluggish lymph flow, inflammatory molecule buildup, poor glymphatic clearance, and fascial compression can all worsen symptoms. Supporting the lymphatic system through movement, drainage therapies, and detox pathways may bring much-needed relief alongside conventional care.

🌊 What Is the Glymphatic System?

The glymphatic system is the brain’s unique waste clearance network, functioning similarly to the lymphatic system in the body—but with a twist. It was only discovered in 2012 by Dr. Maiken Nedergaard, and it has since changed how we understand neurodegeneration and brain inflammation.
This system relies on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to flush out waste products from brain tissue through perivascular pathways, facilitated by a type of glial cell called astrocytes. These cells regulate the flow of interstitial fluid and act as a conduit for metabolic clearance during deep sleep, especially in slow-wave sleep cycles.

🔥 When the Glymphatic System Is Inhibited: The Inflammatory Storm

When the glymphatic system is impaired, neurotoxic proteins—like beta-amyloid, tau proteins, and inflammatory cytokines—begin to accumulate in the brain's interstitial spaces. This accumulation triggers:
* Microglial activation, leading to chronic low-grade neuroinflammation
* Increased production of pro-inflammatory cytokines like IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-1β
* Oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction within neurons
* Blood-brain barrier permeability ("leaky brain") and further immune dysregulation

Over time, this chronic inflammatory state can manifest as:
* Brain fog, memory issues, and cognitive decline
* Mood disorders such as anxiety and depression
* Increased risk of neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s
* Worsened systemic inflammation due to vagus nerve signaling disruption

🛌 Sleep, the Glymphatic Switch, and Circadian Health

The glymphatic system is most active during deep sleep, particularly during non-REM slow-wave phases. When sleep is disrupted—whether due to stress, screen exposure, sleep apnea, or erratic sleep cycles—the brain cannot engage in glymphatic flushing.
Sleep deprivation has been shown to:
* Increase extracellular beta-amyloid by up to 43% in a single night
* Decrease the expression of aquaporin-4 (AQP4) water channels in astrocytes, impairing fluid transport
* Heighten markers of neuroinflammation, including NF-κB signaling and glial activation

🧬 Systemic Inflammation and Glymphatic Dysfunction: A Two-Way Street

Interestingly, inflammation itself suppresses glymphatic flow. Research shows that systemic infections, autoimmune flares, and even gut dysbiosis can produce pro-inflammatory cytokines that reduce CSF dynamics and glymphatic activity.
Conversely, poor glymphatic clearance can worsen systemic inflammation by:
* Disrupting hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis signaling
* Altering vagal tone and the gut-brain-liver immune axis
* Impairing clearance of immune-modulating neurotransmitters like glutamate

🌿 How to Support Glymphatic Health

1. Prioritize Deep Sleep
* Aim for 7–9 hours of uninterrupted sleep in total darkness
* Use magnesium, L-theanine, or glycine to support non-REM sleep
* Avoid screens and caffeine 3+ hours before bedtime
2. Rebound, Stretch, and Move Your Spine
* Movement of the spine and neck enhances CSF circulation
* Manual lymphatic drainage may also indirectly stimulate glymphatic function
3. Hydration & Electrolyte Balance
* CSF production is heavily dependent on fluid status
* Add trace minerals or electrolytes to water to support fluid dynamics
4. Nutraceutical Support
* Resveratrol, turmeric (curcumin), omega-3s, and NAC reduce neuroinflammation
* Melatonin not only promotes deep sleep but enhances glymphatic activity
5. Cranial and Cervical Lymphatic Drainage
* Facial and neck MLD can relieve interstitial congestion
* Techniques like craniosacral therapy or vagal nerve stimulation may further support this network

🧠 Final Thought

The glymphatic system is a vital yet vulnerable detox engine for the brain. When impaired, it doesn’t just affect cognition—it can unleash a cascade of inflammatory dysfunction that spreads throughout the entire body.

By supporting this system through sleep hygiene, lymphatic stimulation, and anti-inflammatory practices, we lay the foundation for resilient mental, neurological, and immune health.

🧠 Why Does Your Brain Swell When Your Lymphatic System Is Blocked?

We often associate the lymphatic system with body swelling, immunity, or detox — but did you know it plays a vital role in clearing waste from your brain?

When your lymphatic system is blocked, your brain may actually start to swell — not just emotionally with stress, but physically with fluid, inflammation, and pressure. And this can silently affect your memory, focus, mood, and even your risk for neurological disease.

Let’s break it down.

1. Your Brain Has Its Own Drainage System

Just like your body, your brain accumulates cellular waste every day — including amyloid beta, tau proteins, and other byproducts of thinking, moving, and even healing. If this waste isn’t cleared, it builds up and creates inflammation that affects how you think and feel.

Enter the glymphatic system — a recently discovered brain-cleaning pathway that works alongside your lymphatic system. It becomes active mostly during deep sleep and uses cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to wash toxins out of the brain and into nearby cervical lymphatic vessels in the neck.

2. Blocked Lymph = Blocked Brain Drain

If your neck lymph nodes are swollen, congested, or chronically inflamed, the exit pathways for brain waste become clogged. This can happen due to:
• Poor posture and forward head tilt
• Chronic sinus infections or congestion
• High cortisol and adrenal stress
• Head or neck trauma
• Poor hydration and sleep quality

When the “exit pipes” are blocked, brain pressure rises and toxins remain in the brain — triggering symptoms.

3. What Does This Feel Like?

Many people silently experience symptoms of brain lymphatic stagnation without ever realizing it. You may notice:
• 🔁 Brain fog or mental fatigue
• 💥 Pressure headaches, especially behind the eyes or base of the skull
• 🧊 Puffy face and neck in the morning
• 😵‍💫 Vertigo or balance issues
• 😔 Depression, irritability, or anxiety
• 💤 Waking up tired despite “sleeping”

In more advanced cases, glymphatic dysfunction has even been linked to Alzheimer’s, multiple sclerosis, and neuroinflammation.

4. The Healing Starts at the Neck

Supporting your brain’s lymphatic drainage doesn’t have to be complicated. Start with these science-backed steps:

✅ Sleep on your side

This position improves glymphatic flow up to 4x compared to sleeping on your back.

✅ Gentle Manual Lymphatic Drainage

A qualified therapist can help stimulate drainage through the deep cervical nodes, allowing CSF and brain waste to exit.

✅ Stay hydrated with electrolytes

Brain fluid balance relies on proper sodium-potassium channels. Hydration + minerals = better flow.

✅ Neck mobility exercises

Releasing tight neck and jaw muscles (including the scalenes and sternocleidomastoid) frees up lymph vessels.

✅ Lower inflammation

Focus on an anti-inflammatory diet and stress-reducing practices like breathwork, prayer, or gentle movement.

🌿 Bottom Line: Your Brain Needs to Drain

The brain is not just protected by bone — it’s protected by flow. When lymph stagnates, the brain swells. When lymph moves, the brain heals.

If you’re experiencing mystery brain fog, head pressure, or fatigue that doesn’t go away, it may be time to look beyond blood tests and into your lymphatic health.
