Dry Brushing to Detoxify the Body

Today was the day I finally could do dry brushing. Also I  finished my research for a body scrub that works. I kind of instantly realized when the formula was right, that it’s going to work.  I did a three step body cleansing while taking bath.  Starting with the Dry brush to body polish to shower gel. I am feeling so light, so positive and fresh right now. Let me write about dry brush today and will share recipe of body scrub in next post.

Dry Brushing is a technique used before the shower for exfoliating the skin, removing toxins and improving blood circulation.

So the magic began when I opened my travel bag today and found a cute dry brush for the body. You can buy it at any departmental store as well as online.  I got mine as a gift during my travels. I am putting it to a good use!!

How to do Dry-brushing on your body

1. Before the shower,  when the body is dry,  Start with legs, do not press the brush too hard.

2. Move the brush in clockwise directions

3. Brush the limbs first, then move to back and stomach

4. Then do that gently towards your heart.

5. You can do dry brushing once every 2-3 days.

6. Follow this with a shower gel and then pat it dry

7. You can then moisturize the whole body. I have dry body, I apply coconut oil all over to get that extra glow.

It has number of benefits. Some are listed below:

1. Dry brushing stimulates the lymphatic system

2. It exfoliates dead cells away.

3. Toxic element, free radical try to associate with our body, dry brushing gets rid of them.

4. This increases circulation

5. It  is known to reduce cellulite but I am not sure it can help 100%. It definitely improves the look of the skin overtime.

6. Helps you get good sleep

I wish more people knew about dry brushing technique, It actually helps get rid of toxins, negative vibes, fatigue, hard metals, dirt and pollution. Your body feels rejuvenated immediately.
