Facial Exercises
Yoga and most energy exercises give you whole body fitness. So, the effect is visible in your face too. However you can use some facial exercises separately to improve your appearance and sense of well being.
With the flexibility of movements and stretches, you get a radiant, glowing, fresh skin.
These exercises tone the face muscles. Just like any other exercises, breathing is important. Don’t hold your breath while doing these exercises. Just let it flow.
