Cleansing Secret #10 It’s ‘Be Kind to Me’ Month!

Are you being kind to yourself?

Go ahead – indulge with extra pampering during your cleanse. Take especially good care of your body. This can be very enjoyable by taking a weekly aromatic detox bath, and dry-brushing before your daily shower.

Taking care of your body is a way of loving yourself. And we all need more self love!

o Dry Brush Your Body

Boost your immune system, help eliminate cellulite, remove dead skin cells and make your skin soft.

You’ll need a natural bristle brush available at most pharmacies. Make sure your body and brush are dry.

Always stroke gently, but firmly two or three times in each area – from feet to neck – always in the direction of your heart. Avoid private areas and damaged skin.
This process should take 5-7 minutes.

o Pamper Yourself with An Aromatherapy Detox Bath

A Detox Bath helps your body release toxins through the skin and the aromatherapy oil soothes your nerves and eases headaches and stress.

The Recipe
Into 1 tbsp. milk or vodka stir 10 drops essential oil of your choice: Lavender, Juniper berry, Geranium, Black pepper, Cypress. Add liquid to 1½ cup Epsoms Salts and stir the mixture into comfortably warm bathwater.

Step in and relax for at least 20 minutes.

Drink a large glass of water when you get out; stay warm and go to bed!
