Are you doing all the right things, eating “healthy”, exercising and still feeling flat? We tend to have this perception that energy comes from our food; however anyone who has fasted for a long period will be able to tell you they tend to get more energy when fasting, not less. So why would that be so?
Our bodies are self-regulating and replacing cells all the time, or over compensating for those which have become diseased. All disease starts at the cellular level when out of balance. To replace or de compose and rebuild billions of cells, as occurs in our bodies constantly, consumes energy.
A nutrient rich dietary intake is still important, because availability of nutrients assist in our metabolic processes and turnover of cells.
Swelling (inflammation) &blockages happen when stress occurs. Cells become deprived of nutrients, possibly from poor dietary choices, chemical overload, physical trauma or mental stress and emotional overwhelm, that your lymphatics simply can’t keep up with. It’s your lymphatic system’s job to take out the “garbage” so that nutrients and oxygen can reach the cells more efficiently to produce energy.
For better body balance, try minimising toxins (go organic, avoid over processed diets. Swap out your cleaning products for natural elements, vinegar, bicarb, lemon, essential oils for example). Practice breathing efficiency techniques, hydrating, and moving often. The lymphatic system loves light pressure (dry stroking, or gentle touch), physical activity or programs with known calming benefits to help us manage our hectic lifestyles better.
