Advice from Japanese Grandmothers on How To Be Beautiful

10/8/2014

Comments

 
This advice is so simple, classic and timeless it has always been on of my favorite basic beauty "to do" lists.  It is something I learned when I took my first Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture certification course back in 2006.  Yes, this is a list about attitude as much as it is a list about at basic home care for avoiding facial wrinkles, but you know what - it works.

If I were to rename this list, I would call it The Zen of Being Beautiful and all of this advice is right in line with my Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture training and teachings. To truly look and feel beautiful, it has to come from the inside and then be nourished by your activities outside - that is the heart of Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture treatment.

This list is so synergistic with my work, I had to share.  It comes from the book Inner Peace, Outer Beauty: 

Natural Japanese Health & Beauty Secrets Revealed by Michelle Dominique Leigh

  • Protect your skin from the sun. 
  • Drink pure water, breathe good air, live in a clean house. 
  • As you grow older, don’t envy the fresh blossoms of spring 
  • To have clear, smooth skin, care for it diligently by cleaning it completely, protecting it with loofah vinewater, and keeping a relaxed mind. 
  • Good skin comes from a clean body, so make sure to eat foods that purify the body. 
  • Eat the peels, rinds, and skins of fruits and vegetables. 
  • Too much makeup pollutes the skin. 
  • If your bad skin is inherited, you can change its condition by eating properly. 
  • Sleep at least eight hours a night, and go to bed before eleven. 
  • Be in love. Be active. Get exercise. Enjoy your life. 
  • Don’t sit around worrying. 
  • Control your desires. Don’t always want what you can’t have. This unsatisfied-yearning habit makes a woman ugly. 
  • Accept your age and the changes in your beauty. A beautiful old woman is beautiful because her mind and spirit are wise and graceful. 
  • At the age of forty, the mind is visible on the face. 
  • Practice facial massage every day to prevent wrinkles and age spots, and to keep the skin fresh and supple. 
  • Eat a wide variety of foods. 
  • Don’t complain; don’t be envious; don’t be irritated. Your health will deteriorate and your skin will look terrible. 
  • If your shoulders are tense or stiff, you will have lines and wrinkles on your face. Practice massage. 
  • Enjoy lovemaking. You will have glowing, shiny skin and a relaxed face. 
  • Enjoy nature. Be tranquil and calm. Eat simple foods. 
  • You can tighten your skin by massaging it: face, head, and neck. 
  • If you breathe deeply, you’ll become strong and healthy, and more attractive. 
  • If you are tired or suffering from stress, you must exercise. 
  • Everybody gets wrinkles, but try to prevent ugly wrinkles by controlling your mind and emotions. Wrinkles are a reflection of your thoughts and feelings. 
  • Clean skin, not makeup, is the secret of beautiful skin. 
  • If you just cleanse, nourish, and massage your skin, it will function well and look good. 


Naturally Rejuvenate Skin

Picture
In my Facial Rejuvenation treatments I seek to naturally lift, firm and tighten the skin while removing facial fine lines and wrinkles by strengthening the constitution, calming the emotions, nourishing the skin and re-sculpting the face with acupuncture, gua sha, cupping, facial massage, and natural Chinese herbal facelift treatment masques and products as needed.

I have to say that I love this advice because if you follow this advice AND do natural facial lift treatments like Facial Rejuvenation, the results are so incredible its hard to describe.  The difference is visible, but more than that it is something you feel - my patients often report feeling more confident, beautiful, sexy, more themselves.  Facial Acupuncture seems to help them navigate the world of aging a little more gracefully because they feel supported and nourished as their bodies age and change. 

Just like the quote above - everybody gets wrinkles - but truly some are due to natural aging, and some are due to expression which does make them a reflection of our thoughts and feelings.  If you change your thoughts and feelings to be more positive, you can change those expression lines too.  And if you need a little help, Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture may be just the thing to help you turn back the clock and learn more about caring for your skin as the natural course of aging progresses along.

If you want to know more, please call, email or book online! Facial Acupuncture is unique and deeply healing and relaxing - everyone should try it at least once you know! 

Until next time,
~Rebecca
