"Throw the tablets away and relieve your pain with Yoga."

Yoga asanas have several benefits for your health. From digestion to mental health, it helps relieve and cure every pain and problem. From basic to advanced, there are several yoga asanas which serve a various purpose. Like most of the pain and problems, yoga succors in easing the painful cramps during the period. 

Many women suffer from the pain of extreme period cramps and mood swings. Only a few don't face much trouble. Some even faint from the pain, imagine how painful it could be? There are some women who have to be warded in the hospital because of the pain and blood-loss. I can go on and on about this- but let's talk about the potential help one can get to free themselves from the dreadful pain. 

Medications are always on the top; but, too much medicine could make your situation even worse. So, try to minimize the tablets and chemical intakes, and prioritize exercises and yoga asanas that help to ease the pain. Yoga has proved to be really helpful. Many even recommended others to atleast do simple stretch and breathing exercises despite the hectic schedule that one may have, to ease the pain. Here we have brought the most effective yoga asanas to ease your period pain. 

Baddha konasana- Bound angle pose

Baddha Konasana is practiced by several people, especially the ones with problems of digestion. However, it is also suitable for easing the period cramps. It contracts your uterus, which is not pretty fun but can be of great help to ease the pain. Moreover, it stimulates your ovaries making it a reproductive health power pose. If you’re feeling fatigued, spend some time in bound angle—it’ll revive your energy too.

Steps- Sit on the floor with your legs stretched forward. Slowly pull your feet towards your pelvis and hold your feet pressing it towards the floor. Keep your back straight with the crown of your head reaching higher. And hold the position as you slowly breathe in and out for a few minutes.

Supta Baddha Konasana- Reclined Bound Angle

Supta Baddha Konasana is pretty similar to Baddha Konasana, you just have to lean back rather than forward. It is best to resolve period-induced anxiety and stress. Period pain and all the hassle may make you go crazy sometimes. But, with this yoga asana, you can relive all those pain and relax. As you lean on your back in this pose, the abdominal muscles relax which eases the period cramps.

Steps- Follow the steps of Baddha Konasana after laying on your back.

Balasana- Child's pose

The easiest and the most convenient yoga asana's on the list is Child's pose. This pose not only relaxes the tension from your muscles, back, and joints; but also has calming effects on your mind. With a few steps of easy and simple bends, you can attain peace and relaxation. Balasana is highly recommended for people who have extreme pain in their joints and muscles, and can barely do anything during the menstrual cycle.

Steps- Sit on your calves with your knees bend. Bow forward and face the ground. Spread your hands forward and breathe.

Upavistha Konasana- Wide-Angle Seated Forward Bend

Relieving your cramps is important, but so is having peace of mind free from any sort of distractions and distress. You can practice this asana even when you're not on your periods- when life gets all hard and stressful. Moreover, as you bend forward in the pose, your abdominal organs are stimulated- as a result, you get less painful cramps.

Upavistha Konasana

Steps- Sit straight on the ground with your legs spread side-by-side to the maximum extent. Place your hands on the floor in front of you and bend forwards.

Bharad Vaja- Reclining Twist

Like the rest of the yoga asana on the list, Bharad Vaja asana also has multiple benefits. Firstly, as you twist your hips and legs from side-by-side- your back and hips will get a great stretch much needed to cope with period pain. And secondly, your digestive organs also get stimulation from the free blood flow.

Skin care routine for acne prone skin

27th October 2020
"Keep calm and keep sticking to these skin care routine."

Due to inopportune breakouts, are you always canceling plans? Despite any effort to hold them at bay, do acne signs haunt your life? Any girl's adversary is Acnes, but some get it worse than others. There's no safer choice for the unluckier ones than a ride to the dermatologist for heavy-duty acne care. But we've assembled a list of skincare habits for those who experience minor, infrequent breakouts triggered by food, lifestyle, fatigue, or just that time of the month.

Although everyone’s skin is unique, there are five main types

Dry, Combination, Normal, Oily, Sensitive

Cleansing (Morning And Night)

cleansing

Regardless of your skin type, cleansing should be the first step in every skincare regimen.

It’s essential to effectively cleanse your skin twice a day, especially if you have acne-prone skin. This helps eliminate all the impurities, oil, and dirt which may clog pores and result in blemishes, whiteheads, or blackheads. You need to wage a very gentle war with the help of a sulfate-free, mild cleanser that does the job of dissolving bacteria, dirt, and excess oil without stripping your skin or leaving it irritated.

Don’t massage or rub any product onto your skin. This will aggravate the acne.

 

Toner (Morning and Night)

The next move after washing is to apply a toner for the pores to open up. For the next stage, toners aim to prepare the skin so that the ingredients can be thoroughly absorbed.

Toners may assist in removing additional oil, combating blemishes, blackheads, and hydrating the skin. Take a ball of cotton and apply a few toner drops to it. Apply carefully across your forehead and ears.

For an oily skincare regimen that is susceptible to acne, astringents are suitable because they are meant to remove extra fat. For dry, acne-prone skin, hydrating toner is the ideal skincare regimen. 

 

Use a moisturizer ( Morning and night)

moisturizer

Hydrated skin is skin that is happy. A moisturizer helps to heal the skin, hydrate it, and preserve it. Moisturizing already oily skin might seem to be counterproductive. By comparison, all skin types require regular hydration, including a skincare regimen for acne.

The glands go into overdrive without a moisturizer to compensate and land up accumulating extra oil, resulting in clogged pores and painfully shiny skin. Your skin is desperate for moisture after acne therapy. A light moisturizer prevents dried and peeling skin, once in the morning and once at night.

 

Using sunscreen

It is non-negotiable, regardless of the skin condition, to use SPF every single day.

There's no tradition of playing nice with sunscreen and acne-prone forms of skin. Most individuals miss sunscreen because dense SPF normally obstructs pores and induces more breakouts. Please reconsider if this is one reason why you are steering clear of this item.

Sunscreens should be an important component of your regimen for acne skincare because certain drugs for acne treatment leave your skin susceptible to sun exposure. You are also vulnerable to symptoms of premature aging, damage to the skin, growth of skin cancers, etc. Be sure to use a sunscreen designed for the face.

 

Acne treatment products

The cornerstone in every skin-care regimen is treatment materials made with active ingredients, and this is the stage where the miracle really occurs. To intensify your acne's downfall, couple your night skincare regimen for acne-prone skin with targeted acne medicine such as spot treatments.

Potent additives that reduce pimples and lighten wounds are used in acne remedies. It's safer to use a dermatologist on prescription medication. Before you see results, allow your skin enough time to conform to the skincare regimen for acne-prone skin. You ought to use a substance for at least six weeks, and once or twice a day, to make a difference.

 

More:

  • Try not to touch your face

  • Stay as far as possible out of the sun

  • Exercise on a regular basis

  • Try not to stress much

  • Get yourself hydrated

  • Opt for a wholesome diet

  • Don't pick the pimples or pop them.

  • Change your sheets more often
