How to avoid Wrinkles

Wrinkles are the visible lines or folds seen in our face. It is typically visible as we grow older. But it starts bothering us before we grow older. The wrinkles occur as skin starts loosing its elasticity, but there can be many reasons for the wrinkles to appear on our faces. As we grow older either the tone of the underlying muscles gradually reduce. Or it may be due to loss of fat underlying the skin or due increased dryness of the skin. All of us are familiar with the occurrence of wrinkle and also familiar with the preventive therapy. To add up to your list here are three simple ways of getting rid of your wrinkles, to say the least to reduce their visibility in your face.

1.External therapy

• Give a mild massage to your face with pure gingelly oil or any oil which does not get hardened in winter. These oils are thick and when you give a massage they seep into your skin and provide a persistent moisturizing effect to the skin.

• Neck excercise - Forward and backward bending, side stretches, and neck rotation. These movements help to tone the supporting muscles of your face.

2. Internal therapy

Oil Pulling- Swishing of oil around the mouth. We can use any edible oil. Take one teaspoon of the oil and put it in your mouth and start swishing for 5 to 10 minutes. The movement of swishing as well as the absorption of oil within your mouth help in toning the facial muscles.

3.For Internal Intake

• Drink sufficient water- Keeps your body hydrated. An age old method, keep drinking as many as 5-6 large glasses of water everyday.

• Add one teaspoon of fenugreek seeds into your diet at least three times in a week. You can soak it overnight and swallow as it is. Or make a sweet dish out of it and use them like Menthe Ganji . http://cookshup.com/pins/menthe-ganji-thangerre-kanjji

A Moment with ME

Just as we go about our daily routine, let's also make a practice of spending few minutes with ourselves. Those few minutes should have no jumbling of thoughts, no worries, no stress; but just ME, ME, and ME.

It's a simple procedure....which will make you feel everyday is a SUNDAY.

                                        Sit comfortably in a chair, or lie-down on a sofa or bed. Place your hands one over the other, legs NOT overlapping each other. Close your eyes, just focus on the tip of your nose. Now comfortably take a breath in and comfortably leave a breath out. Do not do any deep breathing. Repeat this as much as you can, till you fall into a relaxed state of mind. After few minutes slowly move your fingers, move your toes, stretch your hands and legs, rub your palms to make them warm and using your palms give a gentle massage to your face and neck, slowly blink your eyes and open them with a broad smile.

Then just see the magic, notice how different you feel. You feel as if you are boosted with few power punches.

The only person who supports us 24/7 is our self. So spend some time to boost it at regular intervals.

Love yourself, Make a committed friendship with yourself. That's the Mantra for Health.
