It is very difficult for me to "disconnect" ... I am one of those who I don't care about always working because I love what I do. But I also know that it is necessary to make an effort not to have burnout. Of course the importance of separating personal time from working time.
*Reminder to me: If possible, do not work in the spaces of the house that I associate with rest and relaxation.
I gathe 7 small rituals to make a Sunday rest, So that we can feel really relaxed and with the batteries recharged!
"Balance is achieved through diet, lifestyle, self -care, state of spirit and use of medicinal plants"
Wake up with the sun | Align the time to wake up with the natural rhythm of the sun supports the body's circadian rhythm and promotes vitality and energy.
MEDITATION | Start the day with meditation (even if only five minutes) cultivates mindfulness, reduces stress and promotes mental clarity and emotional balance. I know it seems a little redundant but I guarantee it makes all the difference! Even if it is to look at little good things that happened during the week and reflect a little on them. Write about what we liked to happen - or make a to-the list To start the week well also works.
Scrape | The scraping of the tongue helps to remove toxins that accumulate in the tongue at night and promotes a general detox. You can see more here.
Skin care | Establishing a simple daily skin care routine you can follow in the morning and evening is very important. You can see my routine here. Enjoy that it is Sunday to apply this Mask, your skin will thank you! My "sucks" all the benefits of honey and acai, and is regenerated, nourished and super soft. I pity not to remember to apply more times a week because besides making me super relaxed, I don't know if it's still funny to apply a "honey paste that smells so well that you feel like eating" by the face. Then leave atura for 15/20 minutes and pass through warm water. Already this !! It costs nothing and it's really worth it!
Breathing exercises | I knew that deep breathing and scientifically proven in helping to calm the nervous system?I love to practice breathing exercises during skin care, mainly because during the week who remembers to breathe deeply? Conscious and deep breath. One of the magical breaths I use is the 4-4-8 method: inspire counting up to four, sustaining breathing counting up to four. and expiring for eight counts. Repeat several times until you feel calmer and less anxiety. This video It helps to realize the breath I talk about.
Facial massage | Incorporate a facial massage, anyone. Always in partnership with a serum promotes lymphatic drainage, stimulates circulation and toning/sculpting the face. In this case I am talking specifically of Gua massage. This practice of traditional Chinese medicine is highly rejuvenating! It helps instantly reduce tension and swelling while highlighting the natural shine of the skin.
You can see this "vintage MPL" video that explains how to use the Water.
Practice gratitude | Recognize and appreciate all the good that happens to us in life promotes a state of positive spirit, relieves anxiety, reduces stress and increases happiness. Therefore, as "pyrose" as it may seem it is very important to give thanks to all the good that life brings us.
