Grow Younger Face Yoga

26/05/2022

When I started Face Yoga I was already doing yoga for many years and just have finished my Yoga Teacher Training in India.
It’s interesting to observe how many doubts I got after doing Face Yoga training. More specifically I felt like I have to choose what to teach. Like getting better in one practice will take the attention and the improvements in the other.
But more knowledge will never harm us, it can only add value to what we do now. And if for some time you take a step back and reevaluate the things that are currently present in your life, that’s not a bad thing.
I really tend not to see this, and would more often stress and fear. But with a new information there is never a loss, and if we choose differently than before that comes from a more enriched experience and knowledge.

And yes, face yoga is a perfect add on regular yoga practice! ✨

Have you ever felt the similar way? 🤍🌸

Why do we age - visibly in our face = WRINKLES
1. After the age of 25 we starts to produce less and less of collagen & elastane. This creates loss of firmness & wrinkles
2. After contracting the same facial muscles through our unconscious expressions over the time the wrinkle turn from temporary into permanent
3. The GRAVITY is pulling our skin, muscles and even bones every single moment causing the sagging, droopiness & fine lines
4. The pillow you sleep on very likely is responsible for the compression wrinkles you see on your face (the ones you have no idea where are they coming from)

P.S. If you wanna learn more & get to practice with us leave a heart below and I will send you the link for our next face workout ! 😍❤️

Hey there!

I am sure there are some of you that don’t know much about me so I will reintroduce myself.

I am Ivana. 🌺

•Founder of Grow Younger
•Certified Face Yoga Teacher
•Certified Hatha & Vinyasa Yoga Teacher
•Former flight attendant

BUT

What I am really all about is doing the things that I love. I strongly believe that’s what everyone deserves - to be able to do things they love.

Teaching yoga & face yoga are part of those things that really makes me feel so PRESENT.
I always say there was no a single class, workshop I did with people that I wasn’t enjoying it. It feels just right to share the ways to FEEL & LOOK RADIANT, YOUTHFUL and ALIVE.

Now that you know a bit about me, I’d love to know more about yourself below! 👇🥰

The truth is…
• The way we take care of our body and our mind - our face will show •

Not only that the way we choose to live is gonna affect our appearance (exercise, food, work, sleep etc.) but also the way we feel is gonna show up on our face. The emotions are expressed mostly by contracting our facial muscles.

What emotion do you wish to see on your face? 😊

It’s beautiful how we become more aware of the way we feel once we start observing what our face is doing and vice versa.

Have a beautiful day & greetings from one of the most beautiful places I ever seen

After finishing yoga class with beautiful I got a thought (more like a strong feeling translated into words) and it was something like: It is important.

Practices and teachings that we do - they do matter!
It’s hard to explain this moment, but it went through me - if we all do the work on ourselves as much as we can, the need to harm would barely exist! When did you say something rude while being in a great state of mind? Think about it. 🤍
I had moments when I see so many teachers out there and I ask myself am I really necessary or should I simply provide the value through different ways. But, I really can’t accept to live my life without meaning and joy &
both yoga and face yoga are truly the practices I love to share, and I am glad I sticked to them long enough to be able to say this. Those are my ways to maybe give others space to look into themselves and eventually improve their way of living.

Whatever you do can be meaningful. We connect to each other every single day. Those are all the chances to share your kindness. This way people can learn from you good ways of treating life.

What About Sun Tanning?

It is one of THE things that prematurely ages our skin, makes it rough and wrinkled.

Does this means to avoid the sun completely? Absolutely not. First thing in the morning I do is to get out and absorb daylight through my eyes. We need to be outside as much as possible during the day for our body to function well.
But, this doesn’t include spending hours on the sun without any protection. It will damage your skin 😬

Let’s not stress to much about it but start with baby steps - for example YOUR FACE! You want it healthy and youthful in the years to come.

P.S. I can’t say I am 100% protecting my skin (face I do though!) - I tend to forget too.

There are 2 ways to look younger on photos (not talking about filters)

1. Put the camera above so your face looks firmer, less wrinkled, in general a bit younger

OR

2. Exercise your face to actually have that more youthful, healthier, firmer & radiant look

Which one do you prefer? 😉

And yes, there are plenty of filters we can use, but that won’t change us in reality. 😬

Have a lovely day!

Greetings from Bali,
Ivana

A small weekend reminder for all of us (including myself 😬)

We mustn’t give up on ourselves. ❤️

I felt a bit overwhelmed with the amount of my thoughts, uncertainty and clarifying my own desires. And the state where I questioned the things that I used to be totally in love with was the most difficult to bare.
After coming back to them without forcing myself but feeling a desire to do them again, my belief got reinforced.
What is truly ours won’t go anywhere.

Don’t feel guilty if you take a break from whatever that used to matter to you.
You can leave, explore, come back.
Identity that we build on the things we do can be recreated, but what I see that is even more powerful is being aware that we are more than that identity. We can adjust our behaviors the way we want, and we always always and always have the freedom to choose what are those gonna be!

Feel free to share your thoughts ! I’d love to hear from you 🥰🙏🏻

Much love,

Ivana🌺
