Body Brushing is a highly recommended technique for daily exfoliation.

Detoxifying your body can come in many ways. Commonly we hear of everything from pills to liquid detox concoctions. One of the five major paths of body detoxification deals with the skin. Of course the body can also use the colon, kidneys, liver, and lungs. Of these, our skin is the largest elimination organ. Up to a third of all body impurities are excreted through the skin. It releases a pound of waste each day and will be the first organ to show symptoms of imbalance or toxicity. If your skin cannot efficiently release toxins, you may experience rashes, acne, hives, itchiness, body odor, or even eczema and psoriasis. Dry skin brushing is an easy therapy you can add to your daily detox program. Consistent daily dry skin brushing is cleansing and eliminates more waste material than any soap could, and of added benefit, the skin is not robbed of its natural oils needed to keep it from becoming too dry. Dry skin brushing tones the skin, improves circulation, and aids in relieving skin conditions.
Dry skin brushing means brushing the skin without the use of water or soaps. When dry brushing the body, brush the limbs with an upward movement towards the heart. Make long sweeps and avoid back and forth motions. Start at your feet, move up the legs, then work from arms to chest. Every brush motion should be directed towards the heart. Start by brushing skin gently until it becomes conditioned. Avoid brushing the breasts entirely. Avoid brushing the parts of your body that are irritated, damaged or infected.
