From the Archives : Downward dog position for dark circles {Skin Care}

Swathy · September 7, 2013 · 3 Comments

Downward Dog position is one of the important and easiest yoga postures and carries a multitude of health benefits. It helps stretching your spine so relieves you of painful backaches in the long run. It calms your mind and improves your concentration.

It relieves headaches, indigestion, stress, insomnia and strengthens arms and legs. It is also good for high blood pressure and asthma patients. But, apart from all the health benefits, there are a lot of beauty benefits which can be derived if one practices this yoga position everyday.

Let us look at the beauty benefits. Check out here for a step by step instruction on how to perform the downward dog position.

  • It uplifts the face and firms the skin giving it a natural glow as all the blood flows to the face when you are bent down in the downward position.
  • Since there is more blood flow towards the eyes, your eyes look more bright and alive. 
  • It is a perfect cure for dark circles and puffy eyes.
  • There’s more blood flow towards the scalp too which helps in providing nutrition to the hair follicles and promotes hair growth. 
  • Double chin disappears in gradual time and the neck firms up.
  • The skin tone and color improves and the discoloration disappears leaving an even color all over the face and neck.
So, start doing this yoga position everyday for 10 times holding each position for 1-2 minutes approx and see the difference in a few days. The best part of this position is that it also helps in weight control all over the body.

So, have you tried this position?
