Your Beautiful Skin

Ayurveda teaches that all disease stems from poor digestion. Most people do not associate the skin as a digestive organ, but your skin is the largest organ used for elimination. It is responsible for eliminating up to one pound of toxins each day. If you are suffering from any of the following, your skin may be stressed and this indicates that you need to reassess your habits, detoxify your digestive system and make better choices going into your future.

• Acne, rashes, eczema, rosacea
• Extremely oily or dry skin
• Cellulite
• Wrinkles
• Premature Aging
• Skin Cancer

The Elemental Immersion is a 28 day detox program that facilitates the resetting of the digestive system. It uses your own digestive system to flush toxins in a gentle and nourishing manner. The end result is not only weight loss, but clear and glowing skin. To jump start skin health, consider the following:

• Avoid the sun. 15 minutes of sun exposure a day is good for you. More is not.
• Drink when you are thirsty. Depending on your dosha, you may drink up to 10 glasses of water a day. Vatas need the most. Kaphas need the least.
• Avoid saturated fat (animal fat) and all trans fats
• Eat tons of fruits and veggies
• Avoid refined sugars and "white" foods in general
• Avoid caffeine, alcohol, fried food and sodas
• Take a Neem and Flaxseed Oil Supplement daily

Running the Elemental Immersion has taught me that Caffeine and Alcohol are the habits that are the most challenging to break. Break these over a period of time. Don't quit cold turkey or you will suffer from withdrawal. There are lots of breathing techniques, yoga poses and herbs that can ease suffering through this process.
