The Benefits of Dry Body Brushing with Jo Clark and Bec Jakstas

Bec Jakstas is definitely someone who practices what she preaches. In this episode, Bec explains a technique known as dry body brushing. It’s a simple, yet powerful self-care technique that provides countless benefits to your body(lymphatic system), mind (reduces stress) and soul (nurturing).

Slowing down, becoming more in-tune with our bodies and incorporating nurturing rituals as we move into the middle of life, is something that women need to consider for their long-term health outcomes. Dry body brushing ticks all of those boxes.

Bec’s passion for this ancient technique also led to the creation of her business - Stass and Co.

As I found out during our conversation, Bec’s had such an interesting life with many twists and turns along the way and the changes in midlife are providing a few more.
