Dry Brushing~Detoxing our Body

Team Abundance,
Here's an excerpt from the information that I promised on Dry Brushing and Detoxing.
The document is too large to post here so I have sent it to you via email.
I hope that it inspires you to make Dry Brushing and detoxing using our incredible SeaSource products a part of your daily self care!
Love, San

In this day and age we are over exposed to harmful chemicals, residue, radiation, environmental toxins, polluted water, hormones, preservatives, additives and heavy metals just to name a few. These substances invade our bodies faster than the body can emit them causing toxic overload in every part of our system producing harmful effects in our state of health.
Many of these toxins become encased in mucus or fat. These deposits are then set aside in your body as a protection so that they cannot cause damage to your cells, organs and tissues. Many people carry 10-20 pounds or more of extra fat in their body that was created to house this toxic waste. It is not just excess fat but EXCESS TOXIC FAT that your body cannot cycle through because it is so extremely overloaded by more and more waste day in and day out... so the pounds continue to pile on.
Detoxing is very helpful in warding off disease. Detoxing should not be used only for preventative measures alone but also for those already in a chronic state of ill health. I don’t care what your disease is called, if the symptoms of that disease are chronic then you MUST cleanse to reverse that disease and regain your health.
''Detoxify'' is practically a household word now, but it is futile to consider doing a good job of reducing the body's toxins unless the skin is respected as the crucial elimination organ that it is. We now know that if the skin is not carrying out normal elimination, your lungs, kidneys and bowels will function poorly. Conversely, anything you can do to improve skin function will improve the function of the other elimination organs. The long and short of it is that skin-brushing, which is done for about five minutes while the skin is dry, before showering or bathing, removes the top layer of dead skin cells, stimulates the oil-secreting glands (thus moisturizing your skin), stimulates circulation and invigorates you.
Dry Brushing is easy, inexpensive and invigorating and there are many other benefits as well:

1. Removes cellulite
2. Cleanses the lymphatic system
3. Removes dead skin layers
4. Strengthens the immune system
5. Stimulates the hormone and oil-producing glands
6. Tightens the skin preventing premature aging
7. Tones the muscles
8. Stimulates circulation
9. Improves the function of the nervous system
10. Helps digestion
