Whether it’s Facial Yoga, Facercise, Facial Magic or Facerobics or a half dozen of the other facial exercise programs – they all seem to have the home remedy for dissolving our wrinkles as we age. I guess wrinkle creams are one of the biggest advertisers and sellers on television and in magazines. I can’t even remember the last time I wore foundation makeup – but I am a fanatic about skin care and the more natural it is the better I like it.
Years ago – and I can’t even remember exactly how many years ago – I discovered that there were facial exercises that would smooth wrinkles and dissolve a double chin and all of the other things we like to do to our faces as the years roll on.
Just recently, I discovered Facial Yoga and found that it’s a facelift right in my own fingertips. And after using it only a few times a few weeks ago – I can assure you – if you do it daily and keep at it – it works!
They say the eyes are the windows to the soul. But you wouldn’t see very far into my soul if you looked in my right eye because it is always sagging. I even had a kind elderly lady ask me at church yesterday “Honey when are you going to have that eye surgery and lift that eye?” I said “NEVER – because I’ve discovered facial yoga and I’m going to lift it myself.”
Facial Exercises by Many Names
I had actually found facial exercises years ago but they called it Facercize back then.
THEN came Facerobics and Facial Magic and so many other ways to lift the eyes and smooth out the wrinkles with facial exercises.
You see – these books and video’s on all the ways we can do facial exercises all tell me that we can strengthen and tighten the muscles of the face and neck and chin and beyond – just like we can tighten our tummy muscles and our flabby legs. YES WE CAN!!!
After being told by my doctor several times that I needed to schedule the surgery for droopy eye – I decided to look for a home remedy for even THAT.
And yes I tried the tape from China and NO it did not WORK!
I tried a eye lift glue and all it did was make me look goofy and it gave Geezer a big laugh…but it did not ONE THING for ME.
After much research – late last spring I decided to begin one of these facercize programs and I chose Facerobics.
Peta – the instructor is SO friendly on her videos and down to earth. AND she shows her before and after photos and says she still works at it daily to keep her new and youthful look that only took her a few days to see improvement in.
Over the weeks and the last 3 years – she has transformed her own face to look like a much younger twin sister – if that’s possible.
Just look at Peta’s before and after below – the difference is amazing and she’s only been doing this 3 years total and she began to see a difference within days.
The Day I Joined Peta at Facerobics
That photo above is what sold ME on Peta and her Facerobics – because my face has that same harsh look as Peta’s does in the photo to the left. I have sags and bags and not one thing flattering on my face and that’s just not acceptable. So I took my before photo and my face had that same harsh look just like Peta’s does here – in my before photo. I had been emailing back and forth with Peta and she was very encouraging and asked me to email her the photo. I did and when she regained consciousness – she said “YOU CAN AND MUST DO THIS!!!” “You can do the same with your face that I’ve done with mine.” Peta said. AND her video’s are FREE!!!
SO I started that morning and I followed her instructions to the letter and I swear to my soul – I had a couple people after that first week – ask me if I had lost weight. I just said “No” because I didn’t want my secret out until I had made huge headway. But then our son’s home was flooded by a major flood in Paducah, Ky and I was working right along side him 7 days a week for 10 and 12 hours a day for 6 weeks and there was just no time for facercise and my sags and bags began to droop again.
Initially – my right eye drooped so badly that I’d have to hold it open many times to drive or watch tv in the evening. I play piano at church and it had gotten so bad I’d have to pinch the eye brow and around the eye real quick between songs – just so I could see to play the next song. But after just 2-3 days of following Peta – it just opened right up.
NOW – it’s right back where we started from and on especially stressful days – it just won’t hardly stay open at all and just closes on it’s own. lol THAT’S why the elderly lady asked me yesterday when I was going to have the surgery. I was tired – the day was stressful – and the more stressed I am the closer my eye comes to closing completely.
But I’m back with Peta now and going to be working daily on this and I just wanted to give you a heads up and give you the chance to do the same. One thing I LOVE about Peta – you can email her or post on her facebook page and SHE WILL ANSWER YOUR QUESTION 🙂
YOU can start today with Peta’s video’s on youtube and all you have to do is type in Facerobics and you’ll find dozens of them for each area of the face and more – and by the end of this week YOU WILL be able to see a difference if you keep at it daily like she says. AND it only takes a very few minutes a day and you can do this while doing some of your chores or even driving to the grocery or whatever.
Listen folks – we will never try to encourage you to do anything we don’t firmly believe in. I’m doing this myself – I just started over yesterday and IT WORKS!!! When I see the dramatic results of Peta’s photo – THAT is exactly what “I” want for ME. I don’t need fancy clothes or a fancy car or a fancy anything. I don’t even need make up and jewelry – I just want one of my chins gone and my jowls to be history. And Peta’s facerobics can make that happen in no time. Check out this video and see what you think. And then you can go to her website and also youtube and just watch dozens and dozens of her videos – ALL FREE!!! Each one only takes 2-3-4 minutes a day – and I was doing them 3 times a day back in the spring and will begin that same routine immediately.
“Your Best Face Now” –
I’ve recently bought the book “Your Best Face Now” – “Look younger in 20 days with do it yourself acupressure facelift. That book is priceless and I’ll be talking more about it in a few days. But it really goes into detail about how and why different parts of our face sag more than others. And how just pressing a few pressure points – which are clearly shown in the book – will make you feel a difference immediately.
This book – written by Shellie Goldstein says that if we have bags under our eyes – it means our adrenals are exhausted and we need to take steps to rest those adrenals UP. I’m working on my own adrenals as we speak – because mine are definitely exhausted I know – from looking at the bags under my eyes.
We’re going to be doing a lot more here at Love, Home and Health on facial yoga and Facerobics! Just a few days of doing this just a few minutes a day can make such a huge difference. I absolutely and firmly believe in it. Because in just 2-3 days I could easily see it working on my own face. Stay tuned and I’ hope you’ll join me in our own at home facial yoga class.
