Everyone wants to look good. We always try to maintain our looks, including skin and body shape. Our skin, especially facial skin, matters a lot. A clear, flawless, wrinkle-free, and sharp jawline shapes your look and makes it appealing.
Maintaining good skin for a long time can be a big task, even if your skin is naturally beautiful. No worries, a good skincare routine, a healthy and balanced diet, and facial yoga can make your skin beautiful, tight, and free from fine lines and work on elevating your skin health, increasing facial blood circulation. You don't need expensive anti-ageing creams that claim to remove aging or premature aging signs.
Along with facial yoga, you can also do some exercises to remove a double chin if you have such a problem.
What is Facial Yoga?
Facial yoga is different from whole-body usual yoga-like Savasana, or Downward-Facing Dog poses that you are familiar with in general yoga practice.
Facial yoga is just crafted for your facial skin that moves the muscles on your face into certain positions - sort of like yoga for your body.
"Yoga" is simply a catchy term for facial workouts. Doing these exercises will keep your face looking toned and young, lifting areas that are sagging, releasing, and trimming years from your visage.
- Lower Jaw Push
Keep your face forward and try to move your lower jaw forward and backward while elevating your chin. For best results, repeat 10 times.
- Roll The Tongue
Roll and stretch your tongue as far as possible towards your nose while keeping your head straight.
Repeat the technique, this time holding for 10 seconds. After a 10-second rest, repeat.
- Fish Face
Pouting is a selfie must, but doing it as part of your exercise routine will help you get rid of a double chin. All you have to do is suck your cheeks in for 30 seconds and hold them there.
Take a break and then perform the workout four to five times more.
If working with the fish face is too challenging, try working with the pout.
- Simha Mudra
Sit in a kneeling position with your legs folded behind you (vajrasana) and rest your palms on your thighs.
Maintain a straight back and head, and thrust out your tongue.
Extend the tongue as far as possible without straining it too much.
Take a deep breath and roar like a lion while exhaling. For best results, perform five to six repetitions.
