PERSPECTIVE

disgusted by to the degree that they send very negative energy to their midsection or call themselves fat slobs and cover it up with belts and loose clothing to pretend it’s not there! At least I can say that is what I used to think, feel, and do!

But once the lymph nodes and lymph system are externally assisted by massage, the lymph finds the exit through our bladder and intestines and the area suddenly looks and feels much different. The skin appears tighter, bloating is gone, and the watery appearance is diminished.

This last phase took about 15 weeks in my case, but once I added in dry skin brushing (DSB) my midsection began to take on a much more youthful appearance and looks much sleeker.

I began DSB back in 1990 having learned about it from a former boyfriend, who learned about it in Switzerland at a retreat. I began doing it daily and did so until about 7 years ago when one day, I just decided to forgo it and never picked it up again till 3 weeks ago. Oops! Good old self-care.

You see self-care is a full-time job and like all jobs requires me to dedicate time and effort to achieve my goals, so it’s up to me to follow through, especially because I am so very pleased with the results. Wish me luck or better yet, join me on my journey and let’s see what we can accomplish.

I try to remind myself that everything that I do that is positive for my body is my way of thanking it for all that it does for me every day, 24/7 and has been doing for the last 24,881 days! But as I always say, that’s my perspective, what’s yours? XOXO
