Your Skin is Open!
There’s an illusion that our skin is like a brick wall that protects our organs and skin tissues, when in fact, our skin is open with particles coming in and going out continuously. The organs that detoxify and eliminate toxins are the liver, kidneys and yes, your skin. Being the largest organ, it’s the first point of contact with the elements and products. Your skin does its best to protect your inner organs from exposure, while also being the ‘tip of the spear’ when it comes to eliminating toxins; it is the primary point for eliminating toxins.
Anything you apply to your body topically is immediately absorbed into your bloodstream. The skin is a breathing, complex organ. It’s time we start being mindful of how alive our skin really is. I remember growing up I’d put lotion on after the shower and never thought about what was in the products and what effect it was having on my health. Skincare is a health issue. You can’t eat a well balanced diet and not take your skincare into consideration. At Merkaba Sacred Essentials, we’re here to support your entire well being with products and information so you’re never alone on this journey.
