The Fountain Of Youth - Friday, January 15, 2010

I started incorporating the Epsom salts baths and skin brushing Tuesday evening into my daily routine. At least I have been attempting to make it a daily routine. Sometimes life's obligations interfere with the ability to be consistent. Nonetheless, I have been able to do several rounds of each. Interestingly enough, very early this morning, while still in a semi-conscious state, I noticed that my elbows were not achy. That may not seem like anything noteworthy to someone else, but to me, it was a sign of progress in the battle against inflammation. However, the rest of my body was a different story. But the good news is that, as I got out of bed today, instead of feeling 86 years old, I only felt eighty. Perhaps the fountain of youth is not so much related to age-reversal as it is to anti-inflammation.
