TLDR;
This video explains a simple morning routine involving facial muscle stimulation to improve skin health, reduce stress, and awaken the nervous system. It covers techniques like palm stimulation of the eyes and ears, scalp stimulation, and facial tapping to promote blood flow, collagen production, and overall well-being.
- Stimulating facial muscles and nerves can improve communication between the brain and body.
- Specific exercises can increase collagen production and keep skin healthy.
- Simple techniques like tapping and rubbing can promote blood flow and reduce stress.
Introduction [0:06]
The video introduces the concept of stimulating facial muscles every morning to improve skin health and overall well-being. It highlights the importance of the communication between the muscles and the brain, and the role of collagen and elastin in maintaining smooth, healthy skin. Lightly stimulating the face aids nutrient absorption, encourages lymph drainage, reduces puffiness and free radical damage, eliminates toxins, improves oxygen flow, and balances oil and sweat glands, ultimately reducing stress.
Eye Stimulation [1:35]
The presenter draws a parallel between babies rubbing their eyes to stimulate muscles and awaken their nervous system, and adults doing the same. To stimulate the eyes, place the palms of your hands gently over your eyes and make small circular motions for about 15 seconds. This builds up heat and circulation, bringing blood to the area, resulting in rejuvenation, improved vision, and increased alertness.
Ear Stimulation [2:38]
The video explains that stimulating the ears is important for hearing and balance, as it communicates with the brain. Place your hands over your ears and whirl them around clockwise or counterclockwise for 15 seconds to stimulate blood flow and nervous system communication. For further stimulation, push your palms in and release for 15 seconds, which can help with tinnitus, vertigo, and balance.
Scalp Stimulation [4:03]
The presenter recommends stimulating the scalp by running your fingers through your hair or directly on the scalp. This stimulates hair follicles by increasing blood supply and nutrient delivery to the area. It also stimulates neurons in the brain connected to the entire body, promoting overall health.
Facial Tapping [4:41]
The video suggests tapping your face with your finger pads to stimulate blood supply, reduce waste toxins, increase lymph flow, and boost collagen production. Tap along your face and neck for about 20-25 seconds to experience hyperemia, a tingling sensation indicating increased blood flow. This stimulates the central nervous system, which is connected to all systems in the body.
