I actually did a study with some of my colleagues when I was going to school for lymphatic. Right down the road, we went to a croaker. We filled up two gallons of water. Their filter is really great. We put one in a glass gallon and one in a plastic. The one in the glass bottle had 1 to 3% petrochemicals, like, from the plastic chemicals. The one in the plastic, that hasn't been sitting in it long, you know, like I said, less than 5, 10 minutes. It had 90.
Host
Holy crap. All right, guys, back on the Digital social hour. I'm here with Mystique Skalski, lymphatic specialist. Thank you so much for coming on today.
Mystique Skalski
Thank you for having me.
Host
For sure. So what you do is really unique. I've never seen someone do this really well.
Mystique Skalski
It's getting more popular, I think since COVID a lot of people have kind of awakened up to. Excuse me.
Host
Is that you could say the C word.
Mystique Skalski
Okay, okay. That's why I was just like, wait a second. So since COVID a lot of people became more aware of their immune system and how to stimulate it. Also, around that time, there was just, like, a really big rise of women getting plastic surgery, and they used lymphatic drainage to heal afterwards. So it kind of just created, like, this perfect storm where it's really. It was just like this very niche thing that was kind of, like, underground, and only the real OGs practiced and knew it. And now it's spread like wildfire. So you can find, like, lymphatic drainage everywhere. Just the kinds differ a little bit.
Host
Right. So plastic surgery, I didn't know there was some issues with that. So what's going on with that?
Mystique Skalski
So when women are getting, like, the bbl, you know, or any type of plastic surgery, when you. Anytime you cut the body or you go into the system, you're breaking all those lymph vessels. So they need to heal and repair those lymph vessels in order to get their best results and to kind of have more of like, a holistic recovery. So a lot of the practitioners in my field aren't really advocates for plastic surgery because it's cutting open the lymph nodes, the lymphatic vessels, all the things that are supposed to be carrying the waste out of our body. And when you cut that open, all the fluid is just released.
Host
Wow.
Mystique Skalski
Although I'm not super advocating for people to get plastic surgery, I'm an advocate to do whatever makes you feel your best. And I want to help everyone heal as holistic as possible. So my clientele ranges from athletes, babies, children, people with mental health disorders or behavioral health issues. Then the secondary would be like a lot of the women that are just in it for the aesthetics. Not a bad thing. When your internal body is clean, of course, everything on the outside is kind of going to reflect that.
Host
Yeah. So when you get plastic surgery and your lymph nodes get cut, can those ever be fully repaired or is it?
Mystique Skalski
They can be if you are stimulating them correctly a lot of times. With lymphatic therapy growing in popularity, everyone's jumping on the bandwagon. So it's getting really diluted. The knowledge has already been diluted and that's like a whole history lesson. When it came here from Europe, it was already diluted just because there was no money in the actual practice. And that's a different subject for a different day. But people are just trying to label it as body sculpting because that's not federally regulated. But lymphatic therapy is. But if you can like put a nice label on it, then anybody can go to like a weekend class and offer this. So even though it's really nice that it is like a lymphatic revolution, everybody's learning about it and offering it.
Host
Yeah.
Mystique Skalski
It is a loss of integrity with some of the practitioners. Makes sense, really. Say, like, if you're going to seek that out, try to find somebody that is trained in the Vader method. V O D D E R. And that's kind of like the gold standard of voddr. Yep, the gold standard of lymphatic drainage.
Host
And that's what you have.
Mystique Skalski
Yes, Yep.
Host
Got it.
Mystique Skalski
I was trained by a first generation Vader therapist and that means that she was directly trained by Vader. The problem is, when it came from Europe, a lot of the textbooks were in German, so a lot of things got lost in translation. So there's people online that have even gone through Vader training, but maybe their teacher didn't understand the, the textbooks correctly and they're pushing the lymphatic system the wrong way. So the lymph system runs all through our body, head to toe, throughout, every layer of fascia connected to every system of the body. And it's all draining up, so it's actually defying gravity. Your head is the only thing that drains down, and it's all draining right above your collarbone. It's actually your thoracic duct, which is below your collarbone, but we access it through touch above. So I call them like lymph fluencers. And that's like the fast, you know, jumping on the bandwagon. Practitioners that don't understand the concept that everything is draining to what I call the gate of the body. Since the head drains down, the body drains up. Everything has to pass through here. And if everything starts here, you don't have to have any training to kind of logically make sense of it. It was like if everything straining to this area, we'd want to unclog this first before we go to the lower extremities. A lot of these body sculptors are just working on the gut area without opening up anything up here. I always say if a lymphatic specialist is our lymphatic therapist, massage therapists, whatever their title is, if they are only opening up your gut and not touching your armpits or above your collarbone, then you're wasting your money.
Host
Wow.
Mystique Skalski
You're kind of just moving the congestion up without actually giving it somewhere to drain. And by draining, I mean it's going back to the blood system. So the role of the lymph is kind of to take all the invaders, all the toxicity. What we were just talking about. You know, maybe you eat something that has some bacteria in it. Your lymph node traps it to try to purify it with the lymph nodes. But if it has nowhere to drain to because there's a buildup of toxicity, then you would just be moving the issue around.
Host
Right.
Mystique Skalski
And that's the difference between lymphatic therapy versus massage therapy. This massage goes deep into the muscle, releases those toxins. And unless the practitioner is lymphatically trained, then they'll just leave it. So in a week or so, you'll have like a new issue somewhere else because it's re hardened with lymphatic drainage. Proper lymphatic drainage, you're releasing a toxin and then carrying it to the point of elimination, which would be those the thoracic ducts, which then it would go back to the bloodstream, purified. So you're like transmuting the toxicity that you're being exposed to.
Host
Wow, that's crazy. So when someone has a sore throat, is that like a lymph Problem? Usually, yeah.
Mystique Skalski
Your body is trying to fight something off. It's not necessarily a bad thing. Like how you said your lymph nodes were starting to swell, and that's because they're trying to dilute the toxicity. So if you come in contact with something, your throat gets sore, your lymph nodes swell up, those white blood cells or lymphocytes are trying to break the toxin apart.
Host
Yeah.
Mystique Skalski
I don't know if you've ever seen like a white blood cell attacking a toxin.
Host
I've seen videos. Yeah.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah, it's really cool video. And is completely like demolishing it or transmuting it. And then once that process is done, your lymph node is supposed to release that so it can be transmuted fully back to the blood. But the issue is people are getting too toxic and that toxic burden is getting to a point of no return.
Host
So.
Mystique Skalski
So if we become too crystallized with congestion, then the cup floweth over and that's when somebody may get chronic diseases or illnesses or potentially just die, because that's kind of a part of the aging process as well.
Host
Wow. And you mentioned armpits earlier. So when people are using these toxic deodorants. That's getting in the body, right?
Mystique Skalski
That's getting in the body. And those are heavy metals. Even if you go through like tsa, if you have your aluminum deodorant in your bag, sometimes it's so high in aluminum it sets off the reader.
Host
Wow.
Mystique Skalski
So we're putting that right on our lymph nodes. Everywhere the body hinges, you have a gang of lymph nodes. So especially in this armpit. So important because part of the waste is draining up to these axillary nodes and a lot of the breast tissue. So men and women both are developing breast cancer at such alarming rates because we're slathering up toxicity wearing tight bras, tight garments, and then it has nowhere to drain. So now it's just sitting there. And 99.7% of all breast cancer tissue has been found with parabens in it. And that's a completely man made chemical. So not the one occurring naturally in nature, but completely man made. So this tells us this is beyond just evolution, evolutionary, where some people argue of, well, we didn't have the diagnostics back in the day to kind of show that people were getting breast cancer. And it. You can find it in history, but very like 1 to 2% not. Yeah, the percentage that we're dealing with today, it's terrible.
Host
They're finding microplastics in almost every organ. They just found in the brain.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah, the brain, the sperm, the breast milk of women were consuming like a credit card's worth of microplastic a week. The average person.
Host
Crazy.
Mystique Skalski
Water so purifying. You know, I walked in with a plastic water bottle today and I usually try to drink out of glass as much as humanly possible because water is so purifying. So it's going to strip away all the impurities out of the water bottle. And now it becomes like a soup of petrochemicals. I actually did a study with some of my colleagues when I was going to school for lymphatics, where right down the road we went to a croaker. We filled up 2 gallons of water from the Kroger, which is the grocery store in Michigan, in Ohio, Midwest. And their filter is really great. It's like a 12 step filter filtration process. And we put one in a glass gallon and one in a plastic and literally five minutes later went and tested it. The one in the glass bottle had 1 to 3% petrochemicals, like from the plastic chemicals. The one in the plastic that it hasn't been sitting in it long, you know, like I said, less than 5, 10 minutes. It had 97% holy crap, natural chemicals. So we're really drinking like a soup of chemicals that are throwing off our hormones, our endocrine system, you know, congesting in our lymph nodes, and we're just becoming so overburdened with the body. That's why it's really essential. Usually I work with people one on one and just over the last few years I've seen this rise of not just the chemicals from the plastic, but a lot of these nanoparticles that are being released in the air, in our food, on our fruit. They're kind of everywhere in our makeup, these nanoparticles. Our nanobots are just getting. It's almost like micro pollution, you know, we can't really see it, but sometimes you can energetically feel it. And when we come in contact with EMF waves, they cross the blood brain barrier. But saying that, to say that's kind of why I've like stepped up and actually started talking more than just to like my niche little audience and just to really like get the blowhorn out there and tell people like, you have to become aware of your lymphatic system if you want to live optimal life. If you want to vibrate at optimal level of frequency, you have to cleanse this lymph because our Lymph is supposed to be 94 to 96% water. Natural, structured, beautiful crystalline water. But if we are full of heavy metals like you said, that's 70 heavier than water. So being bogged down and as I know, you know, you do so many podcasts with people. Yeah, I know you know a lot of this information. Like we were just talking about the Caroline Corey episode that you had where she's talking about some of these genetic codes that are in our cells. We are capable of far more than we've been led to believe and we're having trouble accessing that power because of the interference patterns in our body, in our lymphatic system.
Host
Absolutely. Yeah. We're being so held back. Yeah, I'm a believer in the nanobot stuff.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah, I know, I almost. That kind of was like word vomit. We don't talk about nanobots because it. There used to be a narrative that if you talked about like the V word, you know, like the jabs.
Host
Years ago.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah, yeah, years ago. Like don't talk about that subject because they will kill you. And now it's don't talk about nanobots because you'll get shut down. And a lot of the big advocates, like online, their pages get shut down all the time, continuously. And there's some great advancements with that. They're using it to target like cancer tumors and deliver certain medications. But again, how are we going to eliminate these things from our body? Now the fluorescent nanobots are getting found in like Pepsi and cola and.
Host
Wow.
Mystique Skalski
These things that people are consuming on a day to day basis or skittles or.
Host
Yeah. So how are they surviving the human body? Are they that resilient to.
Mystique Skalski
Well, there's a couple of things just from my knowledge. There's a Lipton layer, so like a layer of fat that they're putting around these molecules. So that way your immune system doesn't detect them because it just sees it as fat and then, wow, it gets absorbed. Another thing is it's getting, let's say your body is able to fully release that with the use of EMF waves, they're able to cross the blood brain barrier. So now we're getting like these heavy metals and these nanoparticles in our brain and their studies from like the 80s, you know, before even like the modern cell phone. So like from the 80s all the way to like 2018 where they show as soon as somebody is exposed are the rats in the experiment. But humans as well. As soon as we are exposed to heavy metals with the EMF waves 4G LTE towers the 5G somewhat that that is weakening the blood brain barrier and allowing toxins to cross that.
Host
Wow.
Mystique Skalski
And now we're getting a built up. We have lymph in our brain called the glymphatic system and it needs to be fully cleansed. So like I said, this is the gate of the body. If your neck is congested from maybe working too much, maybe having too much of a toxic burden or posture from our phones, you know, clothing, whatever is restricting that area, then your brain is not going to be able to drain. And that's when we're getting the point of no return where super micro vessels with throughout your brain they're getting crystallized and not like the beautiful crystalline that we talk about with structuring water in our cells, but crystallized toxins that are no longer have that fluid to, to cleanse them.
Host
Geez.
Mystique Skalski
And that's when people are getting like Alzheimer's, dementia, children are getting behavioral health issues, getting misdiagnosed, getting ramped up on all these medications and things like that, when really they just need an environment to flush away those toxins to help their body heal and cleanse.
Host
And western medicine won't teach you that.
Mystique Skalski
Western medicine doesn't teach that. Unfortunately there are some amazing doctors that are starting to do their own due diligence with learning some of these things. But yeah, it's not profitable if you are vibrating at a high frequency and you don't need their medications or other surgeries. So they want to keep you, you know, not exactly dead because there's no money in that either, but somewhere. And not, not quite alive, but somewhere in between where you are just a consumer or you wake up, you're in pain, you go to work, you go to school, you know, you come home, you watch your Netflix episode and you go to bed. And that's like a daily routine for a lot of people. So my whole practice is about taking a step back from all of that. Going back to the cellular energy. How can we increase the cell's energy, decrease the toxic load and kind of get authority back over our own health and our own life?
Host
I love that. So how, how does a drainage work? Do you have to go to a specialist? And what's the process?
Mystique Skalski
So you can go to a lymphatic specialist? Like I said, Vader is the technique I usually recommend people, but there's a lot of other techniques that are really beautiful out there. I like the slowest possible way because there is a language of lymphatics, the Lymph loves, like, slow, rhythmic motion. So if we're just going in for the kill, we're bypassing that lymphatic system. And that's the practice with a lot of people. I always hear people tell their massage therapists, like, go deeper, go harder.
Host
Thai massage.
Mystique Skalski
Thai massage, yes. And there's some great Thai therapists out there that they understand the lymph, and they can go very gradual, because if you give the body some time and trust, it will open up so you can go to those deeper layers. But let's say you have a toxin right at the top of your skin. 70% of all the lymphatic fluid, the lymphatic vessels are right under that first mantle of skin. So if we have a buildup there, but we go past it because it needs light touch to be activated, we go past it and release a toxin in your muscle, and then that goes to the surface. It has nowhere to drain because those vessels are already clogged. And then you're moving the issue around, and you can create more damage than good. When you were trying to go get a therapeutic massage, one hour lymphatic drainage is equal up to 29 deep tissue Thai massages.
Host
Wow, that's crazy.
Mystique Skalski
So if you want to go get, like, your deep therapy, do that. Just have in mind how to cleanse your lymphatic system so you don't have to go to a professional is what I was getting at. You can find out some of these really simple moves and do them at home to help drain your lymphatics. So that's where I kind of moved my focus on working with people one on one, because I'm very introverted. I, you know, I like to just be with one person in a room, and you don't have to worry about the perception of so many people, which I know you are perceived by tons of people every single day. So that is something I'm, like, actively working on.
Host
Yeah, that was a big fear of mine for years.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah, see, that's. That's when I. When you said you're like, oh, I did 80 podcasts this week, I'm like, how does this go?
Host
Oh, my gosh. I just added up all of them. Yeah. I've done a thousand in two years.
Mystique Skalski
Wow. See, that's a lot.
Host
Yeah. But the first 2550, I was really uncomfortable. I was an introvert growing up, too.
Mystique Skalski
Yep. And that's where my friend Elizabeth Carson that you've had on here, that's where she was like, really giving me the push of, like, you have to spread some of this information. So we just did a workshop. So the workshop was teaching people not just how to structure your water in your cells and create that cellular energy, but how to actively move your lymphatic system. So it's really simple. Like I said, all the lymph drains up and all drains to your collarbone. It's common sense, you don't need four years of education to get that. That you would pump here and then you would inch your way out before going to your lower extremities. The main thing that I'm seeing with a lot of really trusted doctors, trusted herbalists, nutritionalists, they all have really great intentions with trying to spread the word of lymphatics to, you know, their audience. But they're not getting the proper lymphatic training. So they're telling people to start at their ankles and start at their wrist and dry brush or do manual touch, self touch. But like I said, why would that make sense if we were clogged up here? Why would we go instantly to our wrists or our ankles? So after so much misinformation, years of seeing that, I was just like, okay, I have to step up and be a little more vocal and share this. Because something that's common knowledge to me, I'm realizing that the mass doesn't necessarily understand some of the really basic modes.
Host
Yeah.
Mystique Skalski
So you can learn how to self touch with just your hands. I always say touch is king because your body responds really well to the skin, to skin contact. But if you're not quite there yet, because it can be a little uncomfortable. If you're just starting that journey, you can get a dry brush, which is just like a natural bristle brush. Like if you've ever seen the bath brushes. And you can take that and do the same sequence of cleansing above your collarbone, inching out, going to your armpit, and you're bringing everything back to your heart. Some of your gut drains up that midline and all. But again, it's all draining up to your heart area. So you can do the dry brush, you can do soft touch, you can soak your feet. Every time you soak your feet after the 40 minute mark, it's going to propel your lymph up to 117%.
Host
Whoa.
Mystique Skalski
And exercise only activates it up to like 80%. So you can get a lot of drainage passively. So I always say like the. There's a yogic saying. One of the yoga teachers that I attend in Detroit, she always says like the Slowest way is the fastest way. It's, it's kind of hard to conceptualize that, but it's so true with lymphatics. A lot of people that aren't getting results. Yeah, it's because they're going off of like a 4 second video online. And it's really easy to condense it in a video and show people really quickly. Rub here, tap here. And it's too aggressive. So they're kind of doing like a more of a masculine approach to the lymph. When the lymph is really gentle, you can't force it to do anything.
Host
Right.
Mystique Skalski
You know, it doesn't go with our flow. It needs us to chill out. And that's kind of hard for people to chill out.
Host
Oh yeah, people are impatient. Yeah. Like a 40 minute foot. So like some people would be bored, you know, is it turn on a.
Mystique Skalski
Movie and your feet, you know, you can be pretty passive with it.
Host
Does the water temperature matter with.
Mystique Skalski
Oh yeah, you'll start with hot water, but eventually it becomes like lukewarm.
Host
I'm going to try that tonight. Honestly.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah, do it. And it's, it's really amazing. And if you can pump above your collarbone really slowly with your breath.
Host
Yeah.
Mystique Skalski
In a downward motion, then you're activating that gate. So when you do soak your feet or do any other movement now it has somewhere to circulate and drain. So that's really, really important.
Host
So when you say pump, what do you, what do you mean by that?
Mystique Skalski
So literally pump. So you take the flats of your fingers and you'll go right above your collarbone. You'll start with the left side. So a lot of things in our body are even, but the lymphatic is not one of those. Most of the lymphatic fluid drains to this left side. So it's really important to start here. And I'll do like 40 pumps on my left, above my left collarbone. And then your right side only has to drain your upper right arm, your liver and part of your, your right brain. So it's really important to start with the left side. And you're just pumping. And then you'll go to this right side in your. And you pump and it's where your SCM meets your collarbone. So I kind of call it the point of the triangle. You can just pump there. And some people do, you know, two at one time. If I'm in the car, I'll go like this.
Host
Yeah.
Mystique Skalski
But usually give each side it's individual attention and you're going to get a lot of drainage that way.
Host
Wow.
Mystique Skalski
Lower the better. So like I said, very superficial touch. Majority of the Superficial lymph is 70% of it. It runs alongside your blood vessels in the other deeper lymph nodes. The deeper lymph vessels run alongside your arteries. So majority of it is right under the skin. So it's really important to be very gentle. I call it like the Spiderman touch because, like really sticky and you're just kind of using like the weight of your hand. So the amount of pressure it takes to like move a quarter across the table, like very light, rhythmic, slow, gentle. That's going to activate your brain stem and tell your lymph that it's safe to detox and purify, that you don't have to be restricted because there's no danger. So slowing down, even I have trouble with that. And I have to go against like that brain that tells me, like, go, go, go. And I just need to, no, we're going to chill here. We're going to sit and do it. And it's not always easy to sit with yourself, but once you carve out even 60 seconds a day to move your lymph as slow as you can, you'll start to feel the benefits mentally, physically, your energy starts circulating more. I know that you know that we are bioelectrical before chemical or anything else.
Host
Yep.
Mystique Skalski
So if our lymph is mainly water, water is a conduit of electricity. If we have all these interference patterns within that electrical charge that's running through us, then emotions or energy are going to get trapped. So if you have a blockage in your neck that's been there for five, 10 years, you can think of all the emotions that may be clogged within the area. So when we start releasing some of those buildups of the toxicity, some people have emotional releases, some people have charges of energy where they become so euphoric and they feel ecstasy and they're so grateful for everybody in their life. And that's because some of that unexpressed motion was pent up in the body.
Host
Wow, that's crazy.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah.
Host
So when people have anger issues that could be just pent up energy, there's.
Mystique Skalski
Some children I work with where their moms tell me, like, I'm going to bring my kid to you for a lifetime. Because after just one appointment, one session of draining the lymphatics of the neck, the child completely stopped having meltdowns.
Host
Wow.
Mystique Skalski
If a child is currently in a tantrum, sometimes you can just go around their neck and start to feel where those little marbles are. And you can just slightly pump them and rub them to the direction where they drain. And you'll see them totally chill out.
Host
Holy crap.
Mystique Skalski
So I call them like the anger marbles. When I'm working on somebody, I can usually tell that they have a tendency to react to things. And it's because those chemicals are built up in the body. They're making us think in our reactive brain. So we're not in that frontal lobe. We're in that survival, what used to be called, like the reptilian brain, where we're just trying to eat, you know, we're not questioning the things around us. We get pretty submissive, reactive. And when we can switch those gears of lessening the toxic load of the body, your emotional life, your spiritual life, everything comes into play.
Host
That's incredible.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah. So the waste removal is like the most popular part of the lymphatics. But when you start to drain your lymph system, it's not just involved in that physical detoxification, but it's involved in psychological transformation. So you can get a lot of spiritual growth and intellectual growth. When you lessen all the kind of like the bs, the crap in your body, you can become more of who you actually are and less of, you know, like you said, the heavy metals or the nanobots or whatever else they're throwing at us.
Host
I love it.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah.
Host
My kid wants to see a therapist. I'll just send them to you instead.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah, make them go jump on a trampoline. That's another. You can get your lymphatic system moving.
Host
Wow. I used to use those when I was a kid.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah, I keep a mini rebounder in my living room, so every time my children walk past, they do a few jumps.
Host
Smart.
Mystique Skalski
And that is activating. You have these valves in your lymphatic vessels that are like one way doors. And it's to keep the backflow. So we only want all the fluid to drain up towards the heart, back to the blood. We don't want it to like settle at our feet. So every time you jump up the top of your jump, all those vessels open up, all those one way doors open up, and then when you come down, they close so you can get contraction and release from your head to your toe. And there is a specialized rebounder called a salicyzer. It's a little more pricey. I usually, usually only suggest salicyzers to the people that are worried about shock on their ankles and their knees. Because this man that Invented it. It's like pre stretched so you don't get any of that shock. It's a little more expensive that way. But he was overweight and he would work out like two hours a day at the gym. He was doing like everything correctly on paper, but he didn't realize he had a lymphatic burden. So when he discovered if you pre stretch this trampoline and you jump on it, you can replace two hours at the gym with 10 minutes of jumping because all your muscles are contracting. If you've reached a plateau, you can start jumping or going on a vibrational platform or getting lymphatic drainage. And that's going to allow the blebs of toxicity in your muscles to release to your lymph. And now you have a greater ability to grow and maintain your muscle mass as you age.
Host
Wow. There's a vibration machine at my gym, so those are good for draining on it.
Mystique Skalski
The vibrational platform is going to open up every single ligament and vessel simultaneously at the same time. That's going to spread the oxygen throughout your body and you can have no pain or disease with a healthy, functioning lymphatic system supplied enough oxygen and. Sorry, I. I know I go on like a.
Host
No, that's incredible because I. No one even uses those at the lifetime gym I go to.
Mystique Skalski
There's two of them, and it could increase their muscle mass so much in their cognitive function.
Host
Wow.
Mystique Skalski
So when we talk about enough oxygen being in the cell in the lymphatic system, that means that there's not an excess of fluid around the cell. So the lymph, a healthy lymph, is something called a dry state. It doesn't mean that it's necessarily dry, but it means that there's only enough fluid around the cell to fill the spaces and crevices. When you have the excess of that fluid, that's when you can't get the messengers between cells. So the excess of fluid is what we'd call inflammation. And if your cells needed to communicate to each other, but they have all this inflammation in between them, that message won't get sent. So it's kind of like we're trying to make a call, but there's a storm outside. Sometimes the reception can be impacted. We need these essential messengers for every single function of our body, especially our immune response. So these are called redox signaling molecules, and they're what make your cell like this plump beach ball of a cell. Every 10 years, for the average American, we're losing 10% of those molecules. So by the age 50, we're halfway through all of our redox molecules, and that's the aging process. So with that, there's very simple things that you can do to plump up your redox potential. And when you plump up that redox potential, that's the anti aging effect. So, like a lot of these biohackers that are doing all, all of these things to decrease inflammation or increase their conductivity, what they're doing is increasing those redox signaling molecules, and they communicate to each other for. In a few different ways. One way is like what I just said, like with the cell tower. So it's like a frequency being sent to each other.
Host
Yeah.
Mystique Skalski
Which is super interesting because for a lot of years, scientists couldn't explain how a lymphocyte, which is a white blood cell in the lymphatic vessels or in the lymph nodes, they couldn't explain how they communicated to each other or to people close to them. So we're communicating, you know, our lymph. If I have a burden that you might come in contact with, I need to have a clear signal of those redox molecules to send that signal energetically on a vibrational plane to you to tell your lymphocytes, hey, you need to produce more T cells or killer cells because this virus is about to come in contact with, you know, Sean Kelly's body. You need to gear up. But if we have the excess inflammation around the cell, that won't. That message won't get sent.
Host
Yeah.
Mystique Skalski
It also gets sent a few other ways outside of the frequency. That's just my favorite because I feel like it's such a bizarre phenomenon that we can communicate, you know, energetically. We know that, like our probiotics communicate, but that's another level that we're communicating with the space in between us. The other way it communicates is like a puzzle piece or like a piece of mail coming directly to your mailbox. And that's the receptor site way. And then the third way is it travels through your lymphatic system. So these immune cells need a clear path passageway in your lymph to get to its designated destination. So if we have like a roadblock or a scar or toxicity built up, those redox molecules aren't going to be able to go to your brain and say, hey, gear up for this neurotoxin.
Host
Wow.
Mystique Skalski
Not going to be able to go to your liver and say, hey, get ready. Or to your throat and say, hey, produce these. These cells because you just came in contact with the bacteria. So we need a healthy, functioning lymphatic system because it is that conduit of electricity, of redox potential, like I said, of our immune health. When people talk about their immune system, they're actually talking about their lymphatic system.
Host
Interesting majority of the time never knew that. So I've had a low white blood cell count on every blood test I've taken. Is that a sign my lymphatic system is compromised?
Mystique Skalski
Sign your lymphatic system is compromised, that your cellular energy might be depleted, which you're surrounded by, you know, artificial light.
Host
All day, all day. 5G wi fi, 5G wi fi.
Mystique Skalski
And 5G is probably the least of our issues right now. It's really 5G is detrimental when you're on your device. And of course I know like we're turning towns into like microwaves, but some of those 4G towers, they have the ability to be laser beamed.
Host
4G is worse than 5G.
Mystique Skalski
I wouldn't say necessarily worse, but some of them have great, yes, a greater impact on the like the 4G LTE towers that can be like a beam. But that's why we need 5G towers so closely everywhere because they don't have the ability to penetrate some of like the walls and things like that. They need to be close to us for that to happen. I see 5G really affecting the body when you're using your device. So I tell people, don't put a cell phone up to your head after, you know, just 30 seconds, 30 to two minutes. It's punching holes in your brain.
Host
Why?
Mystique Skalski
It's causing short term memory loss for a lot of people. Which if we're electrical magnetic beings, it would make sense that these artificial man made, every bandwidth on the planet has been bought and is being used against us. So it makes sense that that is throwing us off. So I always tell people we're not going to avoid it completely. You can even be up in the mountains and you're going to get some form of like radiation. But what we need to do is to think of our health and our consumption. On what frequencies are we exposed to most of the. If you know you're going to be exposed to electromagnetic frequency or for you, this is a part of your job, you're going to be around artificial light continuously. You know, that is depleting the water in our cells. So when we talk about hydration for the lymphatic system, it goes beyond the water you're consuming, but it's the water being produced by your mitochondria and if these EMF waves are completely dehydrating us, where we don't have that fluid, that connectivity, our electricity can't be conducted. And that's why a lot of people are going through, like, you know, a lot of spiritual or mental health issues, is because we don't have that conductivity to even tell our body to gear up or how to process certain emotions. That's what the workshop that I just did with Elizabeth Carson, it was. It's called Fractals and Fluids.
Host
Yeah.
Mystique Skalski
And we delved in of how to produce water in your mitochondria so you can produce your own hydration for your lymphatic system outside of what you're drinking.
Host
Really?
Mystique Skalski
Yes. And drinking water, of course, is important. So like you said, glass is a big thing. Purified water or spring water, if you're getting from a natural source, it's already structured. But we're going to get a little bit of chemicals, we're going to get some pesticides and heavy metals or heavy metals and things. But you have to do, like, the risk to reward evaluation. If you get structured water, meaning it's individualized H2O, it can seep inside of your cell, but you're going to get a little bit of toxicity versus if you're drinking strictly purified water that's not structured, that doesn't have minerals, is clean, which is a good thing. It doesn't have all those chemicals, but now it's just flushing right through us. So the water that we're drinking right now, at the end of this, it's going to probably come out our urine.
Host
Yeah, this is pure fun.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah, it's going to just come out our urine. But there are ways that we can structure our water that we consume. You can drink out of glass. You can add certain trace minerals to it. So some people do like Celtic salt, pink Himalayan salt. I use the brand concentrate minerals, and then there's another trace mineral which I might circle back to and explain a little bit, but that's monatomic gold that you put in your water. And all of those things are going to make it more alive. And when we're talking about structured water, you can think of every H2O molecule like a snowflake. And if we're drinking regular water, we're drinking like a Snowball full of H2O molecules. Now, all those H2O, H2O molecules are too large to fit inside of our cell because the cell membrane needs things to be micro to actually seep through. When we drink structured water, that has been either structured through a natural source like glacier runoff.
Host
Yeah.
Mystique Skalski
Or we've structured it, meaning we've vortexed it. You can put minerals in your water and spin it with like a crystal quartz, you know, wand, or some people use copper. Anything that conducts electricity. Or you can just take a butter knife and spin your water. Anything like that. You're going to structure the water and individualize those H2O molecules. That way, when you drink the water, it's more alive, and it's like drinking individual snowflakes of H2O. They're small enough to actually see inside your cell. That's going to get hydration. But beyond that, you can produce your own water in your mitochondria. And that is your body produces the best water when you're barefoot on the ground because you're getting those electrons from earth and you're able to release a lot of that dirty electricity from the EMF waves. So if we're accumulating all this energy every day because we are giant conductors, we are semiconductive beings, then that dirty electricity is going to bog us down, going to make us have those mental health disorders. But if we can release some of that back to the earth. A lot of people think of earthing as just sucking up all those free electrons, But I always talk about the other side of things. We're actually releasing some of that back to the earth and we can empty some of the stuff that we're exposed to. So when you go home, you know, even if it's just a small patch of dirt, take your feet off, get on that, and you can release some of that that you've accumulated.
Host
That's good to know, because on days I film a lot of episodes, I definitely feel pretty drained after.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah. So you can start to reduce some more of that mitochondria water by doing that.
Host
Yeah.
Mystique Skalski
Sunlight also produces. Allows that to be produced in the mitochondria. When you're getting in contact with the sun, you're getting so many rays of, you know, not just the UV ray, which is just a 10 of the spectrum, but you're getting a lot more healing capabilities that way. You're structuring the water in your cell, producing more when you are outside by a bonfire, if you go, you know, anytime you're in heat. So like sauna, infrared, saunas, all those things will actually hydrate your being from the inside out.
Host
Really? That's kind of ironic, right?
Mystique Skalski
You think of heat, you think of sweating on. Oh, I'm like, so dehydrated. It's so hot outside. You're actually upping the water in your mitochondria, which is going taking us back to those redox molecules and you're upping that.
Host
Wow.
Mystique Skalski
So excuse me. That's the ATP of the cell. So to make it plump and have the energy for you to have some of these spiritual awakenings or for your lymphatic to truly do what it needs to do, then it's really simple. We have over complicated our health when really we can just structure our water, clean our lymphatic system, and that would get rid of probably like 90% of our issues.
Host
That's crazy.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah. Most things that people get diagnosed with, my teacher would say like 90%, but that can be argued, of course. But every single thing that you're getting that people are getting diagnosed with are actually symptoms of a congested lymphatic system.
Host
So that's the root cause then?
Mystique Skalski
That's the root cause. And that's why I'm really grateful for my understanding because, you know, I could have went the route of symptomology where we're just getting you by, which is good. You know, you want to be pain free. And I'm a firm believer that you can't heal when you're in pain. So I don't demonize completely like the western medicine, but we need to balance it with that holistic perspective of why is this actually happening in the first place, you know, so if you have a congested lymphatic system, you're going to get things like not just Alzheimer's and those neurological disorders, but you're going to get fibromyalgia, arthritis. You know, if I touch somebody and they're overly ticklish, which is the first sign of lymphatic inflammation. Yeah. Everywhere you're ticklish, you have to think that's where you have lymph nodes, your armpits, your axillary nodes. Wow. Your groin, underneath your jaw. You know, your neck is one third of your lymph nodes. 50% is your gut. Axillary, groin, a little bit behind your knee. You know, everywhere the body is supposed to be moving. Well, of course, we're like sitting in cars and stuff like that. So. Yeah, you and your fiance can go so soak your feet.
Host
I need to get her drained pump.
Mystique Skalski
Above your guys's collarbone.
Host
She'll start freaking out when I take her.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah, see that, That's a sign of that. Or somebody is painful. Everywhere you they touch. We call them like cement people.
Host
Tender, right?
Mystique Skalski
Yep. So I would Rather somebody be ticklish than in pain, because if they're ticklish, then at least, at least lets me know that their immune system is intact.
Host
Okay.
Mystique Skalski
Some people become so toxic and crystallized that their body doesn't even respond anymore. And those are what we call like the cement people where everywhere you touch is really hard. Or the people that are like super muscular and you think they're really in shape, but they can never on flex. Like your muscles only supposed to be hard when you're flexing. No matter how big it is, after you relax, it's supposed to be pliable and soft and that's, that's where you get to the point where your body doesn't even react anymore. There's still issues that are happening internally, but you get hit with a toxin, it doesn't say, hey, let's try to dilute it with inflammation. So inflammation is a good thing. We just don't want it to be like chronic, like right in and day out.
Host
There's a lot of bodybuilders pass away super young because they're probably super inflamed. Right.
Mystique Skalski
There's two, probably a lot of other reasons as well, but they're super, they're super inflamed or they're not inflamed enough because they're just becoming so hard. These lymph vessels are really thin. They're almost see through. So if we are continuously taking protein that can't be digested, if we're having low quality like whey protein or creatine or some of these things that people could get in their raw form, but they're getting it like with the artificial flavors and all of that stuff. Like my brother showed me, he, he does bodybuilding. He showed me his protein is like Fruity Pebbles. Oh my gosh, that is, that's trash. You know, it's not going to actually help you cognitively like whey protein would. So yeah, there's a few ways that you can help your cellular energy, but all, all of it's going to come back to draining your lymphatic system. Like when we talk about, even people that are like trying meditation and trying to be calm and do some of these practices, it's hard when they don't have like the mental capacity to even sit with their self. But because they don't have that cellular energy because their lymph is full of everything else instead of the water, which is supposed to be made out of.
Host
Right, yeah. What's your opinion on stem cells? Because I've heard mixed Things.
Mystique Skalski
So stem cells. I. I wouldn't say I'm like, educated enough in stem cells to promote it, but I like to do things that are like, natural with the stem cells. So I think it's amazing. The. I know there's clinics where people are going to get them injected, and I've seen like, transformations like no other. I don't do that in my practice, but I will tell somebody to go to like a cacao ceremony, get ceremonial grade cacao, because that will produce stem cells in the body. It has more magnesium than any other food known to man. And when you consume that, you're going to help the blood vessels in your heart to open up. That's going to help your lymphatic system, and you're going to produce those stem cells naturally. So I'm, I'm more of what can we do? I think some of these, like, really expensive biohacking technologies are great, but there are very simple things that we can have contact with every single day. Like there's some amazing machines that structure water that you can go spend 100,000 on or 2,000 on or depending on what level. And those are awesome. But if you can go outside and put your cup of water with some salt and have it, have that contact with red light or with, you know, the sun, the infrared waves, then you're structuring it yourself and you don't have to spend all that money. So however, we can make this knowledge more accessible to, you know, humans, to humanize us so we can become less of those, like, nanoparticles that are stealing all of our electrons. Then everyone will be off in a lot better state when they started.
Host
So bring in the water in the sauna. The red light sauna will help the water. Wow, I didn't even know that.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah, it'll help. It will. Like I said, it'll individualize those H2O molecules so that way we can actually absorb to drink them.
Host
Nice. What are you doing next? Are you doing some more stuff with Billy and Elizabeth?
Mystique Skalski
So. Oh, yeah, definitely.
Host
I love those guys.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah, they're awesome. Elizabeth and I worked together for quite a while, like eight, nine years ago at this point. And she was the director of a mental health facility that I had my practice out of when I first graduated. And she became a client of mine as well. And we both. She has helped me elevate my life in so many ways, but in turn, she has totally was engulfed in lymphatic drainage where she was trying to book with me, like, every single day. Like, no let's give your body some time to process. But I see that with a lot of people, they spend all this money and things on, like, their health, and then they come in contact with the most simple thing, and they're like, wow, this is life changing. Like, yeah, we. We have the power within us. So I'll definitely be doing more things with them. Actually tonight when I leave here. Yeah, I'm gonna hop on a call with her. We're gonna go live on her channel. So we'll go live and we'll talk about monatomic gold, which is the trace mineral that I was bringing up. Just however we can make our bodies more conductive, you know, and that's what the whole entire basis of lymphatic drainage is about. And the entire basis for lymphatic drainage in general is to increase the increase and exercise the influence over one's personal world. So if we have a functioning lymphatic system, we have the energy flowing, we have more authority over our health. So that's, of course, what they're all about, you know, forbidden knowledge and whatnot. So I think they make a great team because Elizabeth is really on the physical of how to operate some of these things. And Billy brings in some of that ancient knowledge, even with monatomic gold that.
Host
I've seen him talk about that.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah. With the trace minerals, I use it just to structure my water. But he talks about like it was the elixir of life. And there's so many other origins.
Host
It's liquid form, right?
Mystique Skalski
Yeah. So you can get it in liquid or powder. And it's really interesting with the monatomic gold because it's something we're physically taking, but once you put it in your body, it's distributed and your body releases it quite quickly. So it doesn't stay in there for long, but it acts as a frequency when you consume it. So it's kind of like. Like what I do with my practice is I try to amp up the cellular health before we detox. So I do that with a machine called microcurrent. And that's really low electricity that seeps inside the cell, increases the ATP and that redox like we were talking about, but that gives people the energy to detox.
Host
Wow.
Mystique Skalski
But in a similar way, the monatomic gold is that trace mineral that you can put in your water, and we have it naturally in our body. But when you put it in your body, it acts as a frequency, and it becomes like frequency medicine. So every time you take it, you're Setting a new baseline for your body. And it starts not physically accumulating, but that frequency starts to accumulate. So it's kind of like if you listen to like Mozart all day or you got a sound bath for like a week straight, eventually your cells are going to know a new frequency outside of like the music and the EMF waves. They're going to understand, oh wait, we are structured, crystalline, beautiful water and that can make us magnetic where we actually draw things towards us. This monatomic gold, though, if you research it, it will sound like snake oil.
Host
Really.
Mystique Skalski
It's really like so bizarre sounding. It's so bizarre. But there is a study, the Alpha Learning Institute, which is the brain training institute. Yeah, he did a, they did a study showing. So it's the. Excuse me, it's the Alpha Learning International and they did a study showing how it has brain training capabilities. So neurofeedback is like where you get probes hooked up onto your head, onto your earlobes and it reads the frequency your brain is admitting. Every time this high tech machine detects a skip in your brainwave, it gives you like an audible or a visual skip. So every time your brainwave skips, it will skip the music. When you hear that skip in the music, it's kind of like nudging your brain to be present or like somebody walking with you all day. And every time, like you start daydreaming, they tap you on the shoulder or every time you go back to a trauma or a pattern, they tap you like, come on, get present. Yeah, be back. And it's training you to be here. Now while there's a brain training institute that was doing this research of this monatomic gold, they had the brain map hooked up to somebody in live time so that way they could see what's happening. And as soon, instantaneous, as soon as this monatomic gold hit the tongue, the saliva of the person, instantly they had a balance of hemispheres. So the left and right brain instantly started to correct their self. And they, it had a brain training effect because the brain started to mirror itself to the perfect balance of the gold. So the brain is, excuse me, the brain is attracted to the perfect balance and starts to mirror that. So if you're somebody that is very like logical, gets stuck in like the details of things, it will help balance the right side of your brain, which is like that creative, the, the broad picture and then vice versa. If somebody is, you know, they're so good with the flow and they're always looking at the big picture. But they can't get some of the more logical, intricate details in order. It will help balance that.
Host
Wow.
Mystique Skalski
Super interesting. Super crazy. And they did this study with a group of 10 people, equal male and female group. So it was really small. But this was done in the 80s and it was a really big deal to include women. Just a little side note to include women in studies because in 1970 the FDA actually outlawed researchers from including women in their scientific research. Yeah. So we're left out of a lot of.
Host
I wonder why they did that.
Mystique Skalski
Well, because women fluctuate so much, so our hormones fluctuate, we could get pregnant. And scientific research has to be cost effective and time effective. And surprise, surprise, women took a little.
Host
Bit more time because their hormonal cycle is a month. Guys do it in 24 hours.
Mystique Skalski
Right, right, right. So it, yeah, it takes a little bit more time and energy to work with women and fully understand that. So when this study came out in the 80s and they included five women and five men, it was very, very great to kind of set the ground. So research that we can all relate to. I'll. Unlike some of the research that's only conducted on like middle aged white males, you know, a lot of people out.
Host
Of that I know worked on both genders.
Mystique Skalski
Genders. It did have a different effect in some people. Depending on what they were prominent in. Some people got an increase of like the theta wave. So like that state right before you fall asleep where your mind is really receptive, you can program your subconscious, you know, you can seep those ideas. You can receive information from like the morphogenic field and you can get some of those, some of those like aha moments. And then the people that maybe they already had a lot of that they had an increase of alpha in the alpha wave is like how you lear learn. So it's like super learning capabilities. So if you are going to go like study or you need something that requires your focus, you can take a few drops of that monatomic gold and that's going to help balance the left and right hemispheres of your brain. Increase in majority of people it was increase in the alpha. Just a small percentage had the increase of theta waves.
Host
That's awesome. I definitely need that because I had a girl come up to me last week and said my hemispheres were so off balanced.
Mystique Skalski
How does she know that?
Host
She's like a spiritual person. Yeah, she could just see the way I was talking and moving, I guess.
Mystique Skalski
Okay, well that's what a lot of podcasters or people in the Entertainment industry in general. Yeah. You're exposed to artificial light all day long. You're not having like that blue blocking capability. And that is going to dehydrate the body in turn dehydrate the cells. And as we just kind of painted that picture, your lymphatic system is so intricate and it branches off kind of like your blood vessels, but on just a very micro size. So, yeah, it's really easy to get those hemispheres off balance for sure. And I love brain training, but I thought it was so interesting that you don't have to pay like $75 or $10,000 for the equipment yourself. You could get like a $20 bottle of Monatomic gold.
Host
Yeah, I'd rather just do that.
Mystique Skalski
Right.
Host
Love it. I'll buy some tonight.
Mystique Skalski
Yep. And that's going to help you be more present. And like I always say, if someone has trouble meditating, they need to start focusing on some of these are trouble being present. Start focusing on some of these ways to cleanse the brain, which is the lymphatic system, which is that cellular health, the redox and things of that nature.
Host
Yeah, I had trouble meditating, reading all that, staying focused.
Mystique Skalski
I did the, the Caroline Corey's seven minute meditation on my way here.
Host
How'd it go?
Mystique Skalski
It was good. It was eight minutes. Eight, nine minutes. But I told my driver, like, can you turn off the music? I'm like, let me get.
Host
Oh, it's probably an Easter ride for him. Brain fog is a big deal these days.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah, brain fog is a big deal. And like I said, because a lot of, a lot of amyloid plaque, a lot of toxins that are getting clogged into the brain. We have the blood brain barrier that's supposed to keep heavy metals and certain things out. But since we're now in this soup of electricity that's making those heavy metals available to cross that blood brain barrier. Now we're getting things that we never dealt with ever within our lifespan. So we're kind of in an interesting point of humanity where we need to step up and make some of these really simple choices. I think, like, the average child spends like only eight minutes outside a day. Wow. Like their screen time is like 10 hours.
Host
I spent most of my time outside as a child.
Mystique Skalski
Yeah, that's why it's like, go outside. Right. You don't come back until, like the street lights come.
Host
Yeah.
Mystique Skalski
And that was very common. But a lot of children aren't getting the outside time. And in turn, their cellular health is, you know, depleting because of that, the redux potential and like, that structured water in the mitochondria can't be produced. They're not connecting to the earth at all. So, yes, brain fog is very prevalent. And it's. Of course, there's so many layers to that. But before I even focus on like, nutrition or anything with somebody, I go to the lymphatic system because the lymph. Lymphatic drainage is the quickest way to change your brain. So of course, monatomic gold and things. Those things are great to get, like short surges and eventually accumulate into immune health. The neurological benefit is immediate, but the immune health is slow to build up.
Host
Yeah.
Mystique Skalski
So if you really want to cleanse your lymphatic system, I tell people, before you go and buy like the expensive herbal cleanse or the chelation or anything else, focus on some really simple things. Prime your lymph for about a month to three months before you go and invest in anything. And then you'll notice everything else is more effective. The trouble is people are going through like, these heavy detoxes without their passageways being opened. So your, your pathways are like your ability to sweat, your ability to have a bowel movement, and your ability to drain your lymph if all that is clogged. And we take like an herbal tincture for heavy metals, we can go chelate all that heavy metal out of your tissue. Now it's circulating through your body, but your, your. The drain in the bathroom tub is clogged. Right. You have to open up that. That drainage pathway where everything is going to above your collarbones so you can actually release it. People are becoming a lot more inflamed in actually increasing their toxic burden because they're taking all that dormant toxicity and circulating it without actually being able to get eliminated through the body. So that's why I'm so passionate about the lymphatic system. I went through a really intense schooling for four years before I got my license for massage. That schooling, it was like an unaccredited program, like through a Native American church. But they made us do everything that we would recommend to somebody. So we had to actively cleanse our lymphatic system every single day.
Host
Oh, wow.
Mystique Skalski
We had to sauna. We had to do ozone therapy, colonics. Damn.
Host
You had to do a colon?
Mystique Skalski
I had to be a colonic therapist. I had to give 50 colonics.
Host
Holy crap.
Mystique Skalski
Even though that's not my. My profession. So I learned so many things. Thing that all to say, like, I learned there's so many beautiful ways out there to heal.
Host
Yeah.
Mystique Skalski
But I realized people can't take those steps towards their healing journey when their brain doesn't have that energy. So I realized if I just cleanse somebody's lymph, eventually they're going to have the brain power to not even take the toxin. You know, because being healthy is really inconvenient. We have to actively do the things to make us healthy. We have to find the glass bott. We have to go fill it up. I've broken so many glass bottles. It's just. It's so inconvenient. But it's worth it. When you start to feel how good you are, you actually are designed to feel. Most people have no idea what their body is capable of or how good they're designed to feel because we have a new normal. Right. We're just bogged down by all these toxins. We can't think straight. So cleansing your lymph is the quickest way to actively get that authority back in your brain power where you can make some of those more positive choices.
Host
Absolutely. I love a mystique. Where can people find you and keep with your content?
Mystique Skalski
So I. If you're on social media, I'm on Instagram Lymph Nymph. So L Y M P h dot N Y M P H Because nymphs in mythology where the protectors of water. So that's my goal is to, you know, protect the water system. Lymph nymph.com it's under construction, so it can be accessed right now. But give me about a month and that will be available.
Host
Perfect. We'll link it below. Thanks so much for coming on.
Mystique Skalski
Okay, thank you.

Sean Kelly welcomes listeners to the episode featuring Mysteek Skalski, a specialist in lymphatic health. Mysteek shares her academic background and introduces the critical role of the lymphatic system in overall wellness.
Mysteek begins by discussing her research on water containers:
Mysteek Skalski [00:30]: "The one in the glass bottle had 1 to 3% petrochemicals, like, from the plastic chemicals. The one in the plastic… it had 97% holy crap, natural chemicals."
She highlights how plastic bottles leach petrochemicals into water, significantly impacting hormonal balance and burdening the lymphatic system with toxins.
The conversation shifts to the relationship between plastic surgery and the lymphatic system:
Sean Kelly [01:11]: "So what you do is really unique. I've never seen someone do this really well."
Mysteek Skalski [02:07]: "Anytime you cut the body or you go into the system, you're breaking all those lymph vessels. So they need to heal and repair those lymph vessels."
Mysteek explains that surgeries like Brazilian Butt Lifts (BBLs) disrupt lymph vessels, necessitating specialized lymphatic drainage for optimal healing and holistic recovery. She emphasizes that while she doesn't advocate for plastic surgery, she supports recovery practices that maintain lymphatic health.
Mysteek addresses the increasing popularity of lymphatic therapy post-COVID and the subsequent dilution of its practices:
Mysteek Skalski [04:21]: "Everybody's learning about it and offering it."
She warns against "lymph fluencers" who lack proper training, stressing the importance of techniques like the Vader method to ensure effective drainage.
Delving deeper, Mysteek elucidates the lymphatic system's functions and its intricate pathways:
Mysteek Skalski [05:18]: "The lymph system runs all through our body, head to toe, throughout, every layer of fascia connected to every system of the body."
She explains how proper lymphatic drainage prevents toxin buildup, which can lead to chronic illnesses and impaired immune responses.
Mysteek highlights the pervasive issue of modern toxins infiltrating our bodies:
Mysteek Skalski [08:43]: "We're putting that right on our lymph nodes. Everywhere the body hinges, you have a gang of lymph nodes."
She discusses the alarming rise in breast cancer linked to parabens and the ubiquity of microplastics in organs, underscoring the urgent need for effective lymphatic cleansing.
Shifting to actionable advice, Mysteek outlines various self-care techniques to maintain a healthy lymphatic system:
Mysteek Skalski [21:01]: "One of the yoga teachers that I attend in Detroit, she always says like the Slowest way is the fastest way."
She emphasizes that gentle, consistent practices are more effective than aggressive methods, which can hinder proper drainage.
Mysteek explores the connection between emotional well-being and the lymphatic system:
Mysteek Skalski [25:27]: "If our lymph is mainly water, water is a conduit of electricity. If we have all these interference patterns within that electrical charge that's running through us, then emotions or energy are going to get trapped."
Proper lymphatic function not only detoxifies the body but also facilitates emotional and spiritual healing, allowing for greater mental clarity and reduced stress.
The discussion ventures into advanced topics like monatomic gold and its purported benefits:
Mysteek Skalski [49:20]: "Monatomic gold… acts as a frequency medicine."
She references studies indicating that monatomic gold can balance brain hemispheres, enhancing cognitive functions and fostering a harmonious mental state.
Mysteek addresses how modern technology, particularly EMF exposure, compromises the lymphatic system:
Mysteek Skalski [34:27]: "5G is probably the least of our issues right now."
She explains that constant exposure to electromagnetic frequencies disrupts the blood-brain barrier, allowing toxins to infiltrate the brain and exacerbate conditions like brain fog and memory loss.
Mysteek advocates for a holistic approach to health, combining traditional practices with modern understanding:
Mysteek Skalski [37:12]: "You have to do the risk to reward evaluation… if you get structured water… it can seep inside of your cell."
She encourages practices like earthing, sun exposure, and using specialized equipment like rebounders and vibrational platforms to enhance lymphatic drainage and overall well-being.
Sean Kelly wraps up the episode by urging listeners to prioritize lymphatic health. Mysteek shares her social media handle and upcoming projects:
Mysteek Skalski [61:13]: "I'm on Instagram @LymphNymph… lymphnymph.com is under construction."
Listeners are encouraged to follow her for more insights and to explore practices that support a healthy lymphatic system.
