Health, Skin Care, Beauty: Cleanse your body, cleanse your mind — part 3.
by lyndsie - August 3rd, 2008
A lot of you will be very happy to know that cleansing your mind, body, and spirit can involve a little pampering as well. For instance, you can go a long way towards emotional and spiritual health by setting up a spa right in your own home. If you choose to turn to alternative or holistic medicine, you can begin each day with a gentle tongue scrape. Of course, you only have to go that route if you are comfortable with it.
You can also take contrast showers. These act as a preventative measure against colds, but they also improve your circulation. All you have to do is take a shower just like you usually do, and then alternate, or “contrast” warm water with cold water – three minutes of warm water with less than one of cold, repeated at least twice, and try to end with cold water.
And never underestimate the value of a nice, long candle lit bath – using soy candles is particularly cleansing.
