I Felt Like My Feet Were Going to Explode - What I learned about the importance of lymphatic drainage
Have you ever had swelling in the feet, ankles and lower legs? Do you notice when your glands are swollen in your neck when you’re sick? Do you sometimes get a painful sensation in the crease of your armpits or where the legs meet the body? This used to happen to me! It was ESPECIALLY bad during a long flight. I had been on vacation and fell off the wagon by overindulging in Cuban sandwiches! It happens to all of us, but if you’re like me, you could suffer severe water retention and needless pain. It could be that your lymphatic system is clogged and not draining properly. It could also mean that you’re fighting an infection and your body needs a little help in clearing away the excess fluid and debris.
The Equinox Detox is a transformative 6-week adventure designed to sweep away heavy metals, pesky parasites, viral whispers, endocrine disruptors, and those sneaky “forever chemicals.” This is your chance to clear, cleanse, and rediscover your radiant, vibrant self—inside and out!
We start by addressing all areas of the drainage funnel. Last episode, I discussed the FIRST important step of detoxing, daily bowel movements. Once that’s going, it’s time to stimulate the lymphatic system. We prepare you for the rest of the program which addresses proper liver and kidney function, as well as ways to keep your food, water, and home free of endocrine disruptors, forever chemicals, heavy metals, and parasites.
Whole body detoxing takes careful time and preparation. Having a support group and experienced guide to come with you along the way makes it fun, easy and virtually painless. You’ll learn ways to keep up these beneficial habits to drastically improve your quality of life.
