#27. Your body's hidden superhero: Exploring the lymphatic system with Leah Levitan

from Make Movement Matter with Wendy Welpton · host Wendy Welpton

I learned so much in this episode with Leah Levitan about a system in the body I knew very little about; the lymphatic system, perhaps the unsung hero of our bodies. Leah made a great case for the crucial role the lymphatic system plays which can often be overshadowed by the better known cardiovascular system, despite their close connection.  You'll learn to recognise signs of poor lymphatic function, discover how simple, gentle movements can keep your lymphatic system flowing. Leah shares her passion for lymphatic work and gives us practical tips, including morning routines that jumpstart lymphatic activity. We discussed the role of movement, fluid intake, sleep, dry brushing and much more and ended up talking about an important area for women about why allowing your breasts to move freely can enhance lymphatic health. Get ready for an engaging discussion packed with relatable insights and easy-to-follow advice to help you support your lymphatic system and improve your well-being!
