2) Mark your calendars! The 2 LIVE GROUP ZOOMS will be held: Tuesday May 3rd at 12:30pm PDT and Friday May 6th at 11am PDT. If you can’t make it to the LIVE, you’ll get an email with a recording to watch it at your convenience. Zoom links on the 4 Day Cleanse page here. 3) A journal to write down your dreams, manifestations, intentions, emotions and observations (Don’t skip this step. I am a BIG BELIEVER in writing down your goals. Get specific. Believe in your DREAMS. Anything is possible! 4) Focus on your gut health. Take a probiotic daily. I like the brand SEED. I also love Digestive Juice and the Probiotic by Organic Olivia but if you already have one you love, then make sure you’re taking it during the cleanse. 5) Move your body daily. Go for a walk every day. Set a goal for yourself and try to meet it each day during the cleanse- whether in minutes, miles or steps. In addition, you can take a bike ride, jump on a trampoline, dance, swim, do yoga or any other type of exercise that you love. Exercise can increase your lymphatic circulation by up to 10x! I’m a big fan of wearing Elastique Athletic sports bra and leggings when I work out to boost lymph flow. Elastic Athletics is giving you all a 15% discount on their products! Use code LISA15. During the cleanse you will also receive a Pilates workout video from my friend and Pilates expert Briana Masson! Be sure to try it out, I know you’ll love it! 6) Get a good nights sleep. It will help EVERYTHING! Try getting into bed early with a good book and a cup of mint tea. Sleep is essential for lymphatic health. Your Glymphatic system works with the cerebral spinal fluid when you sleep to wash out amyloid plaque from your brain that’s indicated in neuro-degenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and MS. Studies have shown that consistent sleep can help you lose weight. If you’re working on gut issues and you love chamomile, I recommend The Healer Tea by Organic Olivia. It’s a gut healing tea made with soothing herbs for your digestion and bloating- a great companion during your cleanse! 7) Get a good organic cold pressed Olive Oil. Too many commercial olive oils are actually rancid! I love Wonder Valley’s Olive Oil. It’s extraordinary! They hand pick their fruit when it’s under-ripe, when the olives are still green, which packs in brighter flavor and a healthy dose of polyphenols, the powerful antioxidant- free radical fighting properties that aids digestion, brain health and protects against heart disease and cancer. Wonder Valley is giving you all a 10% discount code that you can use. Just use the code: LISA at checkout. 8) Don’t forget the flavor! Just because you’re on a cleanse doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice flavor. Be sure to stock up on herbs and spices to add to your recipes. Our friends at Darkhorse Organics have some delicious Japanese Umami inspired staples to add flavor to any dish. They have graciously offered 20% off one order. Just use the code LYMPH20 at checkout. 9) Let’s talk about caffeine. I’m NOT going to tell you to give up coffee! But if you are going to have some, please drink it black (NO added cream or sugar) and drink your lemon water in the morning BEFORE your coffee. Green tea is a great choice if you like caffeine. It has so many health benefits! It’s a potent antioxidant that prevents cell damage and also fights cancer. It’s rich in polyphenols known to reduce inflammation and help your heart by increasing the level of antioxidants in the blood. 10.) DO plan to come out of your cleanse slowly, mindfully. Don’t add the restricted foods back in right away! Try to keep going as long as you can. You’re developing new routines, and your body will continue to crave healthy meals for a while. Consider this a jump start- one that you can return to it anytime you need a reset. Lastly, we created a Home Page for you with all the Cleanse Details and Replays for easy access. Find it here.
Looking forward to cleansing with you!
In Lymphatic Health Always, -Lisa
