Everyday Beauty Rituals That Improves Your<br />
Health And Wellness<br />
By Hannah<br />
What do we expect<br />
to see when we<br />
look at ourselves in<br />
the mirror every morning?<br />
Yeah….we expects to see<br />
ourselves look better than<br />
we were yesterday! That’s<br />
why there is always a look of<br />
disappointment when we do<br />
not see what we expect! Oh yes,<br />
there are those days…<br />
The truth is ‘your health<br />
reflects on your skin’ and<br />
perhaps vice-visa. So the<br />
healthier you are internally, the<br />
more beautiful the exterior. It’s<br />
a win win. And when we talk<br />
about health, we also mean<br />
stress levels and happiness.<br />
Our skin shows those, too.<br />
What this means is that the<br />
everyday beauty measures we<br />
take affect our health one way<br />
or the other, isn’t that lovely<br />
beauties? Wow, it sure is!<br />
However, while we will never<br />
cease to slather ourselves with<br />
lovely oils and use natural<br />
minerals to perfect our<br />
complexions, there are more<br />
ways to enhance our beauty…..<br />
and health naturally.<br />
Here are some of my favorite<br />
tips shared by Hope Freije.<br />
Enjoy!<br />

drinking water<br />
Don’t roll your eyes. Maybe you<br />
knew this was coming, but it<br />
has to be said. Dehydration makes<br />
wrinkles more apparent and keeps<br />
your body from doing the things it<br />
needs to do.<br />
Sweat It Out<br />
About 20% of the body’s<br />
elimination occurs through<br />
perspiration. Keep things<br />
circulating by sweating. Sit in a<br />
sauna, exercise, or do both!<br />
Bikram yoga, cycling, or going<br />
for a jog are great ways to work<br />
up a sweat. Do whichever suits<br />
you! Make sure to wash your face<br />
before working out, especially<br />
if you wear makeup. When you<br />
Drink Water<br />
Drink water slowly throughout<br />
the day, every day. If you try to<br />
compensate by chugging a gallon of<br />
water after dinner, you won’t absorb<br />
it all (and you’ll have to get up to go<br />
pee while you should be getting your<br />
beauty sleep!).<br />
If you drink beverages that make<br />
you dehydrated, such as coffee and<br />
alcohol, hydrate before and after to<br />
negate the effects. If you love your<br />
morning coffee, I’m not saying you<br />
should give it up. You brew you! But<br />
challenge yourself to drink a glass of<br />
water first thing in the morning.<br />
The body uses water to cleanse. If we<br />
can’t flush them out that way, they<br />
build up in other places or show up<br />
on our skin.<br />
Get Naked of Make-Up<br />
once in a while<br />
mineral<br />
makeup<br />
Our good pal Kris Carr recommends<br />
going makeup-less one day a week.<br />
This will give your pores a chance to<br />
breathe.<br />
If going without makeup doesn’t sound<br />
fun to you, make sure you use mineral<br />
makeup so your skin doesn’t absorb<br />
toxic chemicals.<br />
sweat, your pores open up and<br />
invite whatever’s around to come<br />
hang out. A.k.a., your makeup, dirt,<br />
and the other remnants of your day.<br />
Shower right after you work out to<br />
avoid reabsorbing everything you<br />
just sweat out.<br />
Exercising also releases endorphins,<br />
and we know being happy makes<br />
you that much more beautiful!<br />
Plus, getting your heart rate up will<br />
give your cheeks some color, while<br />
keeping your heart healthy.
