the heaviness of your legs, the soreness of your legs the next day, I highly recommend you get into a pool and tread some water, do some light swimming.

Again, not an intense workout, but compression boots can be very helpful because they basically fill up with air and compress your lower limbs and then pulse your lower limbs to move that lymphatic fluid up toward the drainage system back into your venous blood supply.

These lymphatic boots can be very, very useful.

There is some cost to them, but if you have access to them, those can be great.

If not, just try and walk around a lot, put your legs up, do anything you can to get that lymphatic flow going.

You do not want too much buildup of fluid and waste products in the interstitial space to occur for too long.

And if you've been using a tissue a lot, there's going to be a lot of buildup of cellular waste products, which brings us to

the glymphatic system, which is basically just the lymphatic system for the brain.

In fact, as beautiful as this system is and as delighted I am and everybody else is that in 2012, it was finally verified that the brain also has a lymphatic system.

I don't like the branding.

I don't like the naming.

Yes, glia are involved, but by calling it the glymphatic system, people think that it's entirely different.

And in fact, it's just somewhat different from the rest of the lymphatic system.

And I think this so-called glymphatic system, which is the lymphatic drainage system of the brain, is so important to all of us.

If you understand a little bit about how it's

designed, it's architecture.

There are some very straightforward protocols that we'll discuss in a moment that will allow you to experience less brain fog, less swelling of your face in the morning, less bags underneath your eyes, and in general, improved wakefulness and cognition.

And that just cascades into everything we know about how to support health.

i'd like to take a quick break and acknowledge our sponsor eight sleep eight sleep makes smart mattress covers with cooling heating and sleep tracking capacity one of the best ways to ensure a great night's sleep is to make sure that the temperature of your sleeping environment is correct and that's because in order to fall and stay deeply asleep your body temperature actually has to drop by about one to three degrees and in order to wake up feeling refreshed and energized your body temperature actually has to increase by about one to three degrees
