introduction introduction ancient wisdom, modern beauty With the passing of time, your lifestyle and personal experiences, both good and bad, can start to show on your face. From your early twenties onwards, every laugh and frown that you express begins to leave its cruel imprint in the form of tiny lines around your eyes and mouth. Add to this the effect of traffic pollution, sunshine vacations, the stresses and strains of modern life, too many late nights, and all the other abuses you’ve subjected your body to and, before you know it, you’re starting to look older than your years. The good news is – it doesn’t have to be like this. We have devised a technique called face lift massage that can give you a natural face-lift. With the simple moves shown in this book, you can delay the aging process by means of facial massage, the stimulation of pressure points, natural beauty treatments, and other well-proven techniques that have their origins in ancient Indian traditions. This treatment not only helps to reverse many adverse effects to your skin but can go a long way to delaying or preventing further damage in the future. If that’s not enough, a face lift massage can leave you feeling relaxed, stress free, and at peace with the world. It sounds too good to be true – but it does work! Step by step, this book will help you get to know your skin, the underlying tissues and the facial muscles, and show you what you can do to stay looking younger for longer. Drawing on the wisdom of Ayurvedic healers, who practice an Indian healthcare system dating back thousands of years, and combining this with other tried and tested therapies, such as yoga, energy balancing, and Ayurvedic massage, we will show you how to carry out a simple but effective facial care program that will leave you looking and feeling rejuvenated, energized, and ready for whatever life has in store. As well as our unique massage system and skincare routine, we offer practical advice on healthy eating, getting a good night’s sleep, managing your stress levels, and regulating many other aspects of your lifestyle that can bring immediate – and lasting – benefits to your mind and body Be warned – this book can change your life!

1 the art and science of face lift massage CHAPTER 1 the art and science of face lift massage what is facial rejuvenation? Facial rejuvenation may sound like the stuff of science fiction but our system of beauty care draws on ancient wisdom and well-established techniques, combined with many modern approaches, to provide a truly “holistic” – or “whole body” – treatment. This unique method requires no oils, equipment, surgery or drugs. All you need is a quiet, comfortable place to practice and a little time to spare. For some exercises, you’ll need a pair of willing hands to massage you, or you can learn how to help others to look younger. Why not practice with a friend, partner or family member so you can all enjoy the benefits? Under the hands of an expert, you can usually see a difference after just one treatment. But even a novice can make a dramatic improvement by helping to free up the restrictions in the tissues that are the principal underlying cause of lines, wrinkles, and sagging flesh. The more you practice, the sooner you’ll see results, which in some cases can only be described as truly amazing. You’ll clearly see how the skin has been rejuvenated – it looks “lifted up” and also feels softer and more supple.
