ポジティブに生きるドライブラシ

Living Positively is all about the simple gestures that can make a big difference in the way you live and feel. One my all-time favourite beauty and self-love rituals is dry brushing –  and a wonderful way to take a few minutes out of your day to do your mind and body some good. So what is dry brushing? It’s pretty much exactly what it sounds like, brushing the skin with a dry brush!

ドライブラッシングの利点

この自己愛の儀式に数分かけることによる瞑想的な利点の他にも、いくつかのボーナスが期待できる。

Stimulates Lymph Flow: The lymphatic system is part of the body’s circulatory system and is vital to our immune system. Lymphatic vessels carry lymph toward the heart which is why we brush directionally towards it. When we dry brush we stimulate the flow of lymph which helps to reduce toxins and aid in lymphatic drainage. It is a powerful detoxifier
Exfoliating: The process of brushing removes dead and dry skin, unclogs pores and leaves the skin really soft and tight. All of which are super helpful during this season we call winter.
Reduces Cellulite: Dry brushing helps to soften hard fat deposits below the skin and distributes the fat evenly. There are a lot of women who have claimed that it helps them smooth out their legs
It’s Energizing: because of the buzz and invigorating feeling your skin is left with it’s a great way to start your day. It feels really good and becomes addictive
There is a slight process to it and it’s best to do before you shower. You always want to brush toward the heart, which is best for your lymphatic system as well as general circulation. Start at the feet and make your way up the body from your legs to your arms, chest, back and stomach. You’ll want to avoid your face. You can also add essential oils to your dry brush by putting a few drops of the oil on your hand first and then rubbing it into the bristles.

ほとんど瞑想的なプロセスになるので、時間をかけて、ブラシが肌に残す振動に集中してください。朝、シャワーを浴びる前に行うと効果的だ。

天然素材の毛を使った高品質のブラシに投資したい。私が愛用しているのは、P. JentschuraのEnergyBrushだ。このブラシの毛には本物の銅と亜鉛が含まれていて、ミネラルを直接肌に吸収させることができる。(今まで何本かドライブラシを試したが、このブラシは肌に素晴らしいピリピリ感を残してくれる。

ドライブラシのセッションは2分～10分程度で終わる。あなたの肌は内側から輝くでしょう。約束します。
