Bio Hacking is optimizing your brain, bodily systems, and emotional and mental health.
Once you have hacked your physical, mental, and emotional bodies you will have the capacity to dive deeper into your psyche and step fully into your limitless potential and purpose with full passion & compassion.

In the Beginning…
We Open Our Exits

One of the first things you do in your bio-hacking adventure to open your detox pathways. LET Lymphatic Detox is a great first step for this! After you detox your Lymphatic System (the trash can of your body) it’s a perfect time to get to work opening the 4 main “exits” of your body. We release toxins by sweating and detoxing
through the skin, peeing, pooping, and breathing!

This can take anywhere from a month to 3 months (sometimes longer) depending on how much detox you have done in your life. Learn how to detox and nourish your 4 exits below! Let the bio-hacking begin!

How to Open your Exits

  • ::: S K I N :::

    Your skin is the largest organ of your body!
    It is the barrier of the outer and inner worlds

    SWEAT
    Sweat in a Far Infrared Sauna everyday for 10-20 minutes. Or at least once a week. Note: In a far infrared sauna we sweat out cholesterol, fat-soluble toxins, heavy metals, nicotine, sulfuric acid, ammonia. Normal sweat produced by jogging, exercise and steam saunas is mostly water and sodium chloride aka salt. You can buy a personal sauna on Amazon for $150. (The Kind that zips up around your body.) Next Level Hack: Wipe Castor Oil on your torso and arm pits before you go into the sauna. The heat + the castor oil will help pull more toxins through the skin.

    BRUSH
    Get a skin brush and brush your skin daily towards the heart.

    BATHS
    Take a bath and put PRL Mud in it or Dr. Singha Mustard Bath or Epsom Salt or Lavender oil. Mud and Mustard pull toxins through the skin.

    COMPRESS & PACKS
    Do Castor Packs, Wheatgrass Compresses, Massage Organic Coffee Grounds on your skin before you shower.

    Your urine is made up of 95% water. The final 5% is a composition of over 3,000 compounds. Dehydration is one of the number one ways our body begins to shift towards diseases and pathologies.

    Draining your Lymphatic System is a great way to open your detox pathways, as it makes you pee and poo more!


    HYDRATION HACKS

    1.) Drink water! lol! Drink half your body’s weight in ounces. Drink at least 3 cups per day with nothing added into it.

    2.) Drink Watermelon Juice, Cucumber Juice, Chia Mylk

    3.) Do a Myers Drip IV bag at Alive & Well in Austin TX once a month to help your bodily tissues get deeply hydrated.

    4.) Add Minerals to your water (pink salt, celtic salt, spectralyte, or Micro-filtered Sea Water. (sold at Alive & Well)

    Every single organ, gland and cell in your body is affected by the condition of your colon aka the large intestine. Few of us realize that the failure to effectively illuminate toxins/waste from the body causes fermentation and putrefaction in the large intestine which is the underlying cause of many diseases. After you see how much comes out of you from getting a colonic once a season. You may decide to up your colon game.

    Did you know developmental trauma and fight or flight can cause your colon to become impacted? Looks like the old phrase “Scare the shit out of you” is true!
    Trauma informed Colon Hydrotherapists understand how to work with people that have severely impacted colons. ” Lets chat about this next session ;)

    CLOSED SYSTEM COLONICS
    Best place to go get a colonic with a closed system in Austin is with Jill Ward. 512.326.1955. She is a deep wise woman that cares and knows how to massage the large intestine to get it moving and fully releasing.

    OPEN SYSTEM COLONICS
    Best place to go for an open system colonic in Austin is right outside Austin in a cute town called Bastrop. With an open system you can pee and poop at the same time during the evacuation process. And you have more privacy in the process. Angel of Water is the name of the system that he actually designed. His name is Roco and he is an earth angel for sure. 512.293.9211

    Every thing you would need to know is in this very well done you tube. Great job, Olivia Budgen! You Nailed it!

    COLON INSERTS
    Colon Reflorastation! Add that good flora back into the colon after you detox the colon! Colon reflorastation therapy is the introduction of a healthy intestinal bacteria supplement into the rectum, which delivers it into the sigmoid flexure of the colon. After one hour of retention, it will colonize the bowel; in three days, it will stabilize the entire five feet of the large intestine. This procedure is designed to reinforce the homeodynamic balance of the bowel flora. Learn more here. You can also add Chlorophyll to your colon inserts.

    Important Note!!!
    All the detoxing in the world will not matter if you continue eat the foods that impact your colon. Try taking out all gluten, dairy, soy, corn, eggs, chips, sugar, alcohol, and coffee and watch your health magically take a huge leap into the land of vitality. Focus on foods that nourish the body and seal the gut. One of the top ways to seal your gut is drinking bone broth.

    Our lungs are delicate yet strong organs. We have two jobs to keep our lungs happy. Inhaling deeply and exhaling completely. When we inhale we enrich our blood with oxygen. The oxygen in our body replaces cells that wear out, gives you energy, supports your immune system, supports the brain function. When we exhale we detox Carbon Dioxide from the body. Because Carbon Dioxide is an asphyxiant …too much of it in the body negatively affects the brain. So what are some ways to get us breathing deeply and getting more oxygen into the body?
