Diaphragmatic Breath Exercise to Stimulate Your Lymphatic System

Описание: Your lymphatic system plays a really vital role in the overall health of your skin. The lymphatic system is the drainage system of the body. It’s the system in the body where white blood cells are manufactured, and cellular waste and toxins are taken care of. In the skin, the lymphatic system assists with cleansing the cells, removing waste from the skin’s cells, as well as helping with cellular turnover, meaning that it helps the skin to exfoliate itself.

The lymphatic system has a clear fluid that runs through it called lymph fluid. Anytime that you have a wound on the skin and you see that clear fluid start to come as wound is healing, a lot of people will call it weep, that is actually lymph fluid.

So similar to how our circulatory system has blood moving through it, our lymphatic system has lymph fluid running through it. Our circulatory system has the heart which pumps the blood around. Without the heart, the blood wouldn’t be able to move through our body in the way that it does. Unlike the circulatory system, the Lymphatic System has no pump, so lymph fluid does not get pumped around automatically. Considering the lymphatic system plays such a vital role in our health, it’s really important that that fluid be pumped around the body, so that means it’s up to us to get it pumping by stimulating it daily. That means that the choices that we make each day have a huge impact on the functioning of the lymphatic system and our overall body health and skin health. Did you know that? Most people don’t!

The main way to get the lymphatic system to work efficiently is for us to stimulate it daily and basically force it to work, although I’d rather say support instead of force.

So, how do we do this? Well, there are only two ways to stimulate the lymphatic system:
1. movement, and
2. diaphragmatic breathing, also known as deep belly breathing

In this video, I teach you how to breathe into your diaphragm to help stimulate your lymphatic system through breath work.

Enjoy!
