Healthy Routine In 5 Steps To Start The Day
Discover the benefits of a daily routine that improves our mood, our health and our appearance. And without having to wake up first!
I am not in favor of monotony, I do not propose a “routine” that will bore us, but rather to acquire a series of daily habits that in the long term improve our quality of life.
How to start your day
When we sleep, our body, in addition to resting, takes the opportunity to regenerate, nourish and replenish itself to start a new day. That is why it is very important that when we wake up we take a few simple steps to activate ourselves.
The first thing is to do some stretching to oxygenate our blood, then I am very much in favor of morning showers, since they help us to clear ourselves after a night of rest. I invite you to start by trying this routine:
1. Brush your skin before you shower
You need a natural vegetable bristle brush to gently brush your dry skin before you shower. Start with your left leg and work your way up to your arm. Repeat the ritual for your right leg to the right arm.
With this, you will activate the blood microcirculation and your lymphatic system, responsible for the elimination of toxins from the body, and you will eliminate dead skin cells. You will oxygenate the skin and activate the elimination of adipose cells, resulting in the gradual elimination of the dreaded orange peel skin or cellulite.
2. Don’t take a shower with very hot water!
Always try to keep the water at body temperature and always finish with fresh water. This will help you close the pores on your skin and make it firmer as a result. It will also wake you up completely.
Finish your shower with fresh water to close the pores of your skin and help it to be firmer.
3. Hydrate your skin with oil
Before drying off, hydrate your skin with some vegetable oil. You only need a small amount: a few drops in your hands are enough for your whole body.
You can use olive, almond, argan, rosehip, coconut oil… You choose! And let your skin absorb it. Once absorbed, pat yourself dry, remove excess water and oil, and you’re ready to get dressed!
4. Wash your face with cleansing milk
Remember to always wash your face with a cleansing milk and apply tonic or floral water, as this will regulate the pH of your skin, which will look smoother. Always hydrate it before using your makeup.
5. Drink hot water with lemon
To start with more energy, before breakfast, drink hot water with a few drops of lemon. This little ritual will help you cleanse your digestive system, activate it and give you energy in the most natural way!
And beware: it also helps to burn excess fat! So surprise yourself, you will feel lighter during the day.
