5 Exercises For A Glowing Skin
Let's have a look at some simple, easy-to-do exercises that will eventually help you get glowing and healthy skin!
1. Neck exercises
Neck is an important part of the human body, it connects the face to the rest of the body.
When the neck is tense it ends up stressing the face. Neck exercises help release the tension, improve the blood circulation to and lymphatic drainage from the head and face.
A simple way to ease the tension is to turn your neck from left to right, back and forth slowly.
Neck rotations are another way. Repeat it 5 to 7 times once or twice every day.
2. Fingertip massages
The skin on your face is much more sensitive than the rest of your body.
Extremely aggressive massage is definitely not the best choice for the face but the tension on the face needs to be relieved too.
When stressed or working, we end up frowning which may build some tension/pain in the forehead and eyebrow area etc.
One way to tackle this is to massage the pain points on your face with your fingertips.
You may even use a facial oil to smoothen the process while also helping you hydrate your skin.
3. Jaw movements
Jaw is also one of the most important and used parts of the face.
Speaking, eating, drinking, laughing -- it does it all and thus moves often too.
When you are idle, simply, open and close your jaws to relax.
4. Eye exercises
Your eyes are wide open throughout the day (unless you’re sleeping, of course). You are constantly staring at a screen or something else.
You need to relax your eyes for some time apart from the time you sleep.
Close your eyes tight and open wide, look in every direction keeping your face stationary.
This works for your eye muscles and helps reduce puffiness in this area and releases the stress.
5. Breathing exercises
Facial exercises and/or facial yoga is not complete without breathing exercises.
Respiratory changes affect the skin and body, as well as your moods.
Breathing slowly and paying attention to your breath helps you relax and reduce stress which results in improving blood circulation and your skin’s overall health.
Practising 10 to 15 minutes
