But focusing on your face can make you look younger.
Over time, scrunching facial muscles leads to wrinkles.
The easy way to DIY
The pros might apply mask after mask to your face for an hour.
Step 1Apply a rich cream that won’t sink in too quickly.
(Skip gels or lotions.)
Don’t rub it all the way inthat’s next.
Step 2Lie down, then place your right palm between brows and slowly glide it up your forehead.
As your palm moves up, let your left palm follow.
Continue this motion for one minute.
Step 3Move both pointer and middle fingers from the center of your forehead out; circle temples.
Repeat for one minute.
Or do a pose or two during the day when you’re feeling frazzled.
Take a long breath.
Use your palm to pull your head gently toward your right shoulder.
Hold for 30 seconds.
Step 2Lie on your back; hug both knees to your chest.
Then extend left leg parallel to the floor; hold bent right knee for 30 seconds.
Peace-Out Soak
Splish splash, take a 15-minute bath.
Do it right before you hit the sack and fall asleep faster.
A bath can be as routine as a shower: Rinse, scrub, repeat.
But if you’ve got more time, pamper yourself.
Step 1Skip the bubbles.
Instead, add a few capfuls of bath oil right before you slip in, Holtz says.
“Bath oils are moisturizing.
Step 2Get in once the tub is a little more than halfway full.
Step 3Keep your chest above water.
“Submerge your body to just below heart level,” Holtz says.
“Immersing yourself more than that can cause overheating and make you feel anxious.”
Relaxing Rubdown
You know that not-a-care-in-the-world vibe you have after a massage?
It’s not only because your muscles feel like jelly.
It has other perks: Using rocks, not hands, lets you put more pressure on tense spots.
Plus, the warmth stimulates blood flow.
Beardshear suggests this tranquilizing treatment.
Cover yourself with a blanket or towel for 20 minutes.
Can’t reach your back?
