PTI:MELBOURNE: Ladies, you might want to
give those expensive moisturisers and painful botox injections a miss as
face yoga might
be the simplest and fun way to get rid of
wrinkles,
experts claim.Like regular yoga, the
moves in face yoga are named. The Marilyn, bumblebee or lion are all
designed to turn back the ageing clock and reduce wrinkles.
Women are
increasingly turning to YouTube, books such as 'The Yoga Face' and now an
iPhone application for fresher-looking faces, The Daily Telegraph reported.
Josie
Goldberg, a health nutritionist from the Gold Coast said that face yoga
was a fun activity with great benefits. "I tried it with a group of friends
and it was great fun. We sat around in a circle pulling all these funny
faces. It was hilarious," she said.
"We are always looking for the quick fix
(solutions), which are often detrimental in the long term. Techniques like
this and so many others are far more beneficial in the long run," she said.
Author of 'The Yoga Face' Annilese Hagen has
designed an app - ifaceyoga - which is helping people across the globe to
turn back the clock. "A lot of people do face yoga. Celebrities such as
Gwyneth
Paltrow and
Jennifer
Aniston are advocates and anyone who likes to look good and be healthy
and natural."
