Well by The Season Naturopathics

02/02/2026

February wraps up our monthly seasonal guides! 💫💓🎉

Just over a month away spring will be here, but for now the intense, bitter winter remains for us to continue to move slowly.

To channel our restless energy, this is the perfect month for planning. Plan your garden, diet changes as things bloom, a spring cleansing program, updated morning routine, plan to clean out your car or closet.

But at that same time, we can still embrace this short season with heavier meals that include meat stocks and sleeping a little longer.

This has been a long winter, but we’ve almost made it! Be sure to continue to replenish your energy reserves for the busy times up ahead.

Thank you everyone for enjoying these seasonal guides the past year. There will be a continuation of these but in a class format, stay tuned for the announcement!

Answers are posted below! 👇🏼

Slide 1: ❌ Option 3
Any event perceived as stressful or unsafe to the body can trigger nervous system stress.

Slide 2: ❌ Option 2
Ignoring emotions only suppresses them which gets stored into the subconscious mind and various body parts. This can result in chronic issues.

Slide 3: ❌ Option 1
While proper nutrition does feed the nervous system, it does not cancel out stress altogether.

Spring is right around the corner which is the perfect time for a liver cleanse!

I’ll be hosting a class this March on spring cleansing options with handouts to take home and apply right away. Stay tuned for the official date.

🌿✨ SIGNS YOUR LIVER IS CALLING FOR HELP ✨🌿
(and why it matters more than you think)

Your liver is one of the hardest working organs in your body 🧠🫀
It filters toxins, balances hormones, processes fats, supports digestion and works hand in hand with your lymphatic system.

The thing is
👉 it doesn’t scream when it’s struggling
👉 it whispers

Many of us are dealing with liver overload without realising it. Modern life places an enormous burden on the liver through chronic stress, hormone disruption, medications, processed foods, environmental toxins and long standing inflammation. The liver was never designed to carry this load alone.

Here’s how those whispers often show up 👇

🌙 You’re exhausted especially between 1 and 3am
This is peak liver regeneration time 🕰️
When the liver is overloaded, sleep becomes light, broken or restless.

🤢 You feel bloated, nauseous or heavy after meals
A sluggish liver struggles to produce and release bile 🧪
Poor bile flow affects fat digestion and leads to bloating, reflux and nausea.

🧠 You experience brain fog or poor concentration
When toxins are not cleared efficiently, they recirculate 🌀
This directly impacts focus, mood and mental clarity.

😤 You feel irritable, anxious or emotionally overwhelmed
The liver plays a major role in hormone clearance ⚖️
Excess hormones amplify emotional responses.
This is biochemical, not weakness.

🌿 You have skin issues like itching, rashes, acne or dullness
Your skin is a secondary detox organ.
When the liver is overwhelmed, toxins are pushed out through the skin.
Night time itching is a common clue 👀

💩 You struggle with constipation or notice pale or floating stools
Bile gives stool its colour 💛
Low bile flow slows elimination and allows toxins to build up.

🤕 You experience headaches or pressure behind the eyes
The liver supports blood filtration and circulation 🩸
Congestion can increase pressure especially after certain foods.

🤰 You gain weight around the midsection
When detox pathways are strained, the body stores fat as protection 🛡️
This is survival physiology not lack of discipline.

🌬️ You notice bad breath or a metallic taste
This can reflect toxin build up and impaired detox pathways.

😮‍💨 You are sensitive to smells, alcohol, supplements or medications
When detox pathways are overwhelmed, even small exposures can trigger nausea, headaches or fatigue.

😴 You feel tired after eating instead of energised
When liver energy and bile flow are low, digestion becomes exhausting rather than nourishing.

🧬 Why this matters
Your lymphatic system drains into the liver.
If the liver is congested, lymph stagnates.
If lymph stagnates, inflammation rises.

The liver does not work in isolation. It relies on healthy lymphatic flow to move toxins, excess hormones and inflammatory waste out of the body. When lymph slows, liver congestion increases. When the liver is congested, detoxification stalls.

Over 500 metabolic processes depend on healthy liver function.

✨ Healing does not begin with restriction or punishment
✨ It begins with support

Support looks like nourishment, drainage, rest and patience.
The liver heals best when it feels safe.

Your body is not broken.
It is communicating 💚🌿

Health begins in the soil. There is much to rebuild.

The use of pesticides in agriculture has long been a contentious topic. While they may appear to offer immediate solutions, the long-term consequences are far more severe. As the United Nations report highlights, pesticides contribute to the deaths of 200,000 people annually, a number that continues to rise despite ongoing awareness efforts.

This grim reality is a wake-up call for all of us. It’s essential to reconsider how our food is produced and the impact it has not just on human health but also on the environment. Pesticides may promise to increase yields, but at what cost?

Moving forward, embracing sustainable, organic farming practices is key. It’s time to rethink our reliance on harmful chemicals and choose methods that nourish the land and our bodies. Let’s come together and demand healthier, toxin-free food options for all. 🌱💚

This is our trash can of the body. It doesn’t have a pump to move on its own so it’s up to us to move it daily! Anything to get it moving is going to be benefitcal…. Including walking, stretching, the big 6 routine from YouTube, and castor oil packs.

🌿 Rebounder vs Weight Training vs Dry Brushing vs Vibration Plate

Should I do EVERYTHING?! 😮

Let’s make this fun, factual, and non-overwhelming — the Lymphatica way.

Every day you hear:
“You must rebound!”
“No, lift weights!”
“What about dry brushing?”
“Get a vibration plate!!”

And suddenly your brain goes:
“Do I need ALL FOUR to fix my lymph?!”

Short answer: NO.
Long answer: Each one supports your lymph in a different, beautiful way — like the four corners of a gentle healing home.

Let’s break it down with joy 👇💚

✨ FIRST — Your Lymph Has LAYERS

And each tool works on a different layer:

🔹 Dry Brushing → Surface lymph (just under the skin)
🔹 Rebounder → Full-body rhythmic lymph movement
🔹 Vibration Plate → Deep lymph + fascia stimulation
🔹 Weight Training → Muscle-pump driven lymph flow

You don’t need every tool.
You only need the one(s) that support your layer of stagnation.

🪮 1️⃣ Dry Brushing

Gentle, calming, surface-level support

What it does:
✨ Stimulates superficial lymph
✨ Softens the skin
🌸 Calms the nervous system
🕊️ Reduces minor swelling

Why it works:
Your lymph lives right under your skin — a feather-light brush wakes it up.

Best for:
✔ Sensitive bodies
✔ Lipoedema
✔ Low-energy days
✔ Daily rituals

Avoid if:
✖ Skin is irritated
✖ Brushing too hard

Lymph score: ⭐⭐⭐ (A lovely add-on)

🟩 2️⃣ Rebounder (Mini Trampoline)

Joyful full-body lymph flow 💚

What it does:
✨ Pumps lymph with gravity shifts
✨ Boosts circulation
✨ Lifts mood
✨ Helps leg drainage

Why it works:
Upward bounce → lymph compresses → downward landing → lymph decompresses.

Best for:
✔ Leg swelling
✔ Morning lymph sluggishness
✔ Emotional heaviness
✔ Low-impact cardio

Avoid if:
✖ Severe spinal issues
✖ High inflammation flare

Lymph score: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Queen of lymph movement!)

💪 3️⃣ Weight Training (Strength Work)

Hormone-friendly, metabolism-supporting, lymph-pumping

What it does:
💛 Muscle contractions pump lymph
🔥 Reduces inflammatory fat
🌿 Supports hormones
📉 Improves insulin
🧠 Boosts mood-long term

Why it works:
Every rep = a lymph massage from inside the muscle.

Best for:
✔ Women with hormonal imbalances
✔ Autoimmune warriors
✔ Long-term lymph health
✔ Strong metabolism

Avoid if:
✖ Overtraining (causes inflammation)

Lymph score: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Deep, powerful support)

⚡ 4️⃣ Vibration Plate

Deep lymph + fascia activation with almost no effort

What it does:
⚡ Sends micro-vibrations through tissues
🦵 Helps heavy, tired legs
🌿 Releases fascia
🔥 Improves circulation
✨ Activates deep lymph

Why it works:
Vibration causes rapid muscle contractions → lymph vessels contract → drainage improves.

Best for:
✔ Those who can’t rebound
✔ Heavy legs
✔ Chronic swelling
✔ Pre-MLD sessions

Avoid if:
✖ Vertigo
✖ Joint replacements (doctor approval needed)

Lymph score: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Amazing for deep stagnation)

🌈 SO… DO YOU NEED TO DO EVERYTHING?

Absolutely not, my angel.
You only need what works for YOUR body.

Choose your “lymph personality” 👇

🩵 THE SOFT GIRL

You like gentleness, warmth, and slow healing
→ Dry brushing + deep breathing

💚 THE ENERGIZER

You want fun, joy, and movement
→ Rebounder

🧡 THE MUSCLE QUEEN

You want long-term inflammation control + tone
→ Weight training

💙 THE EFFICIENT MINIMALIST

You want results with minimal effort
→ Vibration plate

🩷 THE HYBRID

You mix 2–3 tools depending on the day
→ Dry brushing + vibration plate + strength

🌸 THE PERFECT SIMPLE ROUTINE:

✔ 30 seconds dry brushing
✔ 5 minutes rebounder OR vibration plate
✔ Strength training 2–3x per week
✔ Deep breathing daily

Done. That’s it.
Your lymph will absolutely LOVE you.

🌿 FAQ (The answers everyone wants!)

Q1: Can I rebound if I have knee/back issues?

Yes — just do a soft bounce without lifting your feet.

Q2: Do I need to dry brush every day?

No. Even 2–3 times a week is powerful.

Q3: Can vibration plate + weight training be combined?

Yes!
5 minutes of vibration before lifting reduces stiffness and boosts lymph flow.

💛 Final reminder:

Your lymph doesn’t need perfection.
It needs kindness.
It needs consistency.
It needs YOU showing up gently — not aggressively.

And you’re doing beautifully already. 🌿✨
