Teacher Sisii pointed out that the job of the lymph is to recycle the body's old waste. There are more than 600 lymph nodes in the body, of which more than 300 are located in the chest. Basically, if the lymph nodes are blocked, the body will not be able to metabolize smoothly, and the excess substances will cause edema, or accumulate in the body in the form of cellulite, affecting the body's circulation and causing illness.

Lymphatic flow yoga is most effective when done in the morning and evening

It is recommended to stretch in the morning before breakfast to mobilize the joints and promote blood circulation, which will make the mind clearer. At night, the purpose is still to relax and induce quality sleep. It can be done before going to bed at night. Through slow stretching of the body, the body and mind can be relaxed.
