Your lymphatic system has no pump — it moves through muscle contraction, deep breathing, and hydration, which means a sedentary, stressed, sleep-deprived lifestyle slows it to a crawl. Courtney explains how declining estrogen affects lymphatic function in midlife and gives you three simple, evidence-backed daily practices to keep this critical system flowing.
