Your body has a powerful detoxification system that often gets overlooked, the lymphatic system. Unlike the circulatory system, the lymphatic system does not have a pump and relies on movement, hydration, and simple self-care practices to keep lymph fluid moving throughout the body.

When lymphatic flow becomes sluggish, toxins and cellular waste can accumulate, which may contribute to inflammation, fatigue, and even hormonal imbalance.

In this episode, Dr. Rekishia McMillan explores the important connection between lymphatic drainage, hormonal health, and self-care practices that help support the body’s natural detox pathways. She explains how techniques like dry brushing, massage, movement, and hydration can stimulate lymphatic flow and support the body’s ability to process and eliminate hormone by-products.

Dr. Rekishia also shares how she incorporates dry brushing into her weekly self-care routine and discusses an interesting historical connection to purification practices described in the story of Esther.
