Dry Burshing & Self- Massage To Make Your Body Tingle

Dry Brushing And Self- Massage

Power up your day with this morning ritual. This wonderful self-styled massage practice will make your body tingle from head to toe. Not only will it help you physically to relieve tension, but it will also help with anxiety and promote the feeling of being emotionally supported for the rest of the day.

 It has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries and this practice is called Abyanga.  Abyanga is Body Brushing,  which was crafted I believe to detox the upper layers of the skin and exfoliate dead tissue, the sebaceous and sweat glands can carry out their function more efficiently when pores are free from debris, sweating moves toxins out of the body better, and dry brushing helps in this process to an even better degree.

  A natural plant-based bristled brush is used, right before you get in your shower, or bath. Brush the skin with gentle light strokes starting at the bottom of your feet working your way up to your heart. Bypass the delicate areas, all the way up to your neck each limb one at a time. It is not recommended to brush the face. Follow this brushing routinely with a bath or shower using natural soap, to wash off the dead skin. Dry off and follow up with rejuvenating natural full-body self-massage using a blend of Essential Oils and carrier oils.

Instructions for body Brushing

  People usually make space in their bathroom by placing a towel on the floor. To create more atmosphere some people burn incense to purify the air or use a defuser for aromatherapy.
 With your brush start from the bottoms of your feet, and begin working your way up towards the heart. Lightly brush your body in upward strokes. Start with your feet, each leg, arms, stomach ( light clockwise strokes)  avoid soft skin areas like breasts, and genitals, and loose skin around the neck area, unless you have a softer bristle brush for neck and face, then brush your back and lower backside.

 After Bathing

Mix whichever Essential Oil you decide to use, with two-four drops off essential oil and 2-4 tables spoons of carrier oil.

Suggested carrier oils and their descriptions.

Coffee & Butter

Illustration by Simone Myles young/ www.coffeeco-op.blogspot.com Good Morning! From the home roasting kitchen of Gaia Coffee Co-op & "How to Roast Your Own Coffee" In the Morning I make coffee with my custom blend of beans I call the " Two Kings".   I make it with two exceptional types of coffee, one very earthy and pungent, the other smooth and nutty, both full body Arabica beans that rock my world. That with waking up to my cat who thinks she is holding a conversation with me. I might even believe I understand what she is saying. So as I was going through my ritual , I had a thought (light bulb), it was odd, as so many of my thoughts are this early in the morning before my first sip of Coffee. At the time I was reaching for butter in the refrigerator for my oatmeal. W hen my eyes jetted over to my coffee glass sitting on the counter.  ( a moment ) "What if you could put butter in coffee? " You might immediately make the assu...
