January 29th, 2007 by admin | Filed under Uncategorized.Skin brushing has been a traditional practice throughout Asia and other countries for centuries. Chinese people use a dried, fruit-fibre sponge called a loofah to brush their skin, while
Native-American Indians use dried corncobs.
Brushing your skin (also known as dry skin brushing) is the quickest, simplest way to improve your skin tone and texture, eliminate waste and toxins from your blood
and lymphatic system, boost blood circulation, relieve and prevent colds, and more.
How can brushing your skin clean your entire body?
Your skin is your body’s largest eliminative organ - brushing it clears away dead skin cells making it look and feel smoother and allowing your skin to breathe better and release toxins more efficiently. Regular brushing also stimulates the underlying circulation of blood and lymph
(a waste-removal fluid), which helps your body eliminate deeper level toxins, through your colon.
The modern, easier way to brush your skin is to use a natural-bristle brush with a long handle so you can brush your back and other
hard to reach areas yourself. Long-handled, natural bristle brushes are inexpensive and usually available wherever health and beauty
products are sold.
Dry skin brushing of your whole body only takes 5 minutes and is generally done daily before showering. If you have a cold or just
feel below par you can do it morning and night till you feel better. Two to three months of daily brushing, in conjunction with a
junk-free diet will clean your entire lymphatic system - something that virtually everyone could do with. This
writer, who has excellent health, clearly recalls the globs of sticky, green mucus that came out of his nose several days after he
began brushing his skin… and he wasn’t even sick at the time!

With many people these days suffering from constipation, allergies, acne, regular colds and other signs of toxic build-up (which
are usually due to or exacerbated by poor diet), daily skin brushing is an ideal way to enhance the body’s natural waste removal
systems. Adopt a junk-free diet as well, and you will notice positive changes in your health and vitality,
and your skin.
