Enhance Your Summer Detox Routine with Tongue Scraping
In our last discussion, we explored the benefits of exposing our faces to morning sunlight within two hours of waking up, as it supports a healthy circadian rhythm and uplifts our mood. This week, we continue our journey towards a healthier lifestyle by focusing on a habit that aids our body in the crucial task of detoxification.
If one of your goals is to maintain a clean and healthy body, you're in the right place. Organic juice can be a powerful ally in the detoxification process. By incorporating just one juice a day into your routine, you flood your body with plant-based nutrients, allowing it to take a break from digestion and concentrate on repair and rejuvenation.
Throughout this summer, I'll be sharing a weekly healthy habit that you can easily adopt and practice, helping you maintain a healthy lifestyle throughout the season. This week, we'll delve into the world of detoxification and discover a simple yet effective habit.
Summer Habit Challenge #4:
Tongue Scraping!
Did you know that the health of your tongue can provide valuable insights into the well-being of your entire body? This week, we'll learn and practice an easy habit to enhance detoxification by removing unwanted bacteria from our tongues each morning.
In Ayurvedic Medicine, tongue scraping is a widely recognized practice and an essential part of the morning routine. Our bodies work diligently to detoxify throughout the night, and the "gunky" coating that appears on our tongues is a byproduct of this process.
If we neglect to remove this coating, it remains in our bodies, which is not exactly a pleasant thought. However, by dedicating just a few minutes each morning to tongue scraping, we can eliminate the "gunk" and support an additional pathway for detoxification. Best of all, it's an easy habit to incorporate into our daily routine.
How to Practice Tongue Scraping:
1. Visit your local drugstore and purchase a tongue scraper.
2. After brushing your teeth in the morning, take a few minutes to scrape your tongue.
3. This simple procedure takes less than 60 seconds but can significantly contribute to your overall well-being this summer.
If you find yourself enjoying the benefits of tongue scraping, I highly recommend investing in a copper tongue scraper. They are durable and long-lasting, and the one I personally use is available for just $8 (link provided below).
While we're on the topic of products, if you happen to be placing an order with Living Libations, one of my all-time favorite stores, consider adding the Best Skin Ever Seabuckthorn oil to your cart. It's a fantastic addition to your summer routine, especially after a refreshing shower. Trust me, you'll thank me later!
By incorporating tongue scraping into your daily routine, you actively support your body's detoxification process. This small yet powerful habit can contribute to your overall health and well-being, allowing you to embrace a healthier and more vibrant summer. Stay tuned for next week's healthy habit challenge, and remember, making small changes can have a significant impact on your journey to good health.
