Hi guys my name's Danielle Collins and I'm the world
leading face yoga expert and I'm just going to show you
three of my top face yoga techniques for helping to
reduce and prevent jowls. So this area along the jaw
really helps to tone the jaw, lift the jaw but also very good to
do if you hold a lot of tension in the jaw. So ideally do this with a
clean face clean hands. You could apply a little bit of
fusion by Danielle Collins moisturize and seal just allows
you fingers to glide beautifully and it has all
those amazing nourishing anti aging ingredients in as well.
All accredited by the Soil Association so you then just
make a little hook like this with your index finger and your
middle finger and you just glide all the way up. So with
this lifting technique you can do it for up to one minute.
It's very good for helping to stimulate lots of lovely
acupressure points. So helps the benefit well being as well.
Very good for helping to firm the skin by helping the
skin to produce more collagen and elastin by helping to boost
the circulation.
And we're also letting go of built up tension and when we
let go of built up tension we're less likely to hold
things deep set expression lines which tend to cause those
wrinkles in the skin. And it's also just beautiful. This for a
sense of relaxation overall. So bring your hands down after
you've done that for about one minute and then just tap.
Under the chin to try and bring the chin parallel to the
floor here.
Now this tapping action really just helps to tighten up the
area underneath the chin and it's really rare that we
actually bring our chin parallel to the floor. Often we
squeeze out chin downwards particularly if we spend lots
of time using phones or laptops writing or reading. So just
bringing the chin parallel to the floor just helps improve
the posture. And this is all going to help that jowl area
And that jaw area.
OK. So a little bit there and then we're going to do a
really nice exercise which tones this area.
So you're going to make a smile shape with the lips but just
allow the lips to curl around the teeth a little bit.
So we go
and then as you hold there.
Bring your two index fingers and smooth any lines you may
see being created remember we face yoga you don't ever want
to see a line being created during an exercise so use a
mirror to check with this exercise but also with all of
my exercises you don't want to just be pulling the face in any
old direction.
So we go
and then we're going to move backwards so we go
And again
keep feelimg the cheeks lifting here against the resistance of
your fingers.
And then hold.
You want to try and hold them for about 30 seconds
really feel this whole jaw area engaging
After 30 seconds.
You can come slowly down and to release any remaining tension
take a deep breath in through the nose and then go and really
let go of tention in the jaw.
Let's try that again.
Wonderful. So they are your three top tips for lifting and
toning the jaw area to prevent and reduce jowls. Have a great day.
See you again soon.
