The Aging Mask- A Lifestyle Medicine Podcast
The Aging Mask is a Life Style Wellness Podcast, where Lifestyle Medicine meets curiosity, learning and great conversation.
The Aging Mask is a Podcast dedicated to exploring the transformative power of Lifestyle Medicine. Here is where I will share with you what I have learned, and continue to learn as an "Ayurvedic Health Counselor".
Life Style Medicine is a complete healing system focused on giving you the tools and practices to create greater health and happiness on a daily basis by using your innate healing ability. We will also discuss, and do a deep dive into the
six (6) most important pillars of health; which are; sleep, movement/physical activity, healthy emotions, meditation, nutrition and self-care.
There is no" one size fits all" prescription for your well- being, it is experiential, which means the choices you make about your experiences shape your body and mind, including your choices about food, personal relationships, sensory experiences, sleep, work social interactions and daily routine. As you shift your experiences, your biology will shift because your biology is the metabolism of experience.
Please join me for engaging and educational discussions that highlight how every aspect or your lifestyle contributes to your overall health and happiness!

Dry Brushing 101: The What, Why, and How
Dry Brushing is not new, it is an ancient, global practice rooted in self care, purification, and healing.
Whether is was to prepare for sacred rituals, enhance beauty, or promote circulation, cultures around the world have long valued the skin as a powerful channel for wellness.
Dry brushing supports many things on and in your body, it detoxifies, exfoliates the skins outer layer, and stimulates the sweat and oil glands providing more moisture for the skin. And one of the most overlooked benefits of dry brushing is the support it gives to your lymphatic system.
Dry brushing is exactly what it sounds like, brushing your skin with a DRY, firm bristled brush. No water, no lotion or oils; just you and the brush.
Dry Brushing is not a new trend, it has deep historical roots across so many ancient cultures each using it for therapeutic, cleansing and ritualistic purposes for over 5k years.
The goal with Dry Brushing is to GENTLY exfoliate the skin, stimulate circulation, and engage the lymphatic system. It is a rhythmic intentional practice where you brush in specific directions toward your heart.
Whether you are brand new to the idea or already hooked, you will walk away with a deeper appreciation for this powerful, time tested form of self-care.
Enjoy!
