 I can't wait to share this with you because this routine for Gua Sha is so simple and so easy. Number one, Gua Sha has been known to really sculpt faces. It is a known fact that we have so much extra fluid in our bodies at any given time that being able to take that lymphatic system and drain it, it can really take years off of your look. I have seen a dramatic difference in my skin. It also helps to give a massage to your face and bring that blood up to the surface of your skin. What happens is that blood delivers nutrients, collagen, all the things that we need to look younger. This has been so effective for me and if you have any problems with your sinuses, folds, or allergies or anything like that, that this whole area is affected headaches. All right girlfriends, are you ready to Gua Sha? We are going to be using a little bit of oil on our face today. I like to use, by the way, I am whitening my teeth with crest white strips in this video. This is the real thing. This is the morning routine, so you're getting it all. Okay, so what this is is castor oil, but it's organic castor oil and when you buy oils, make sure you have it in a dark bottle because it will oxidize a lot slower. I actually keep mine in a dark closet in addition to having the dark bottle and so you are just going to pour out some of your oil. I use castor oil because it's full of vitamins and it is just so good for your skin. I also love jojoba oil but I was out of jojoba oil and make sure that you go down onto your neck and you get plenty onto your neck and your decollete too. Don't forget your decollete. Once you have that, you're just going to use any gua sha tool. I found this one on Amazon. It came with a jade roller as well and I really, really like it. It's a little bit thicker so I, I don't know, I just like it a little bit more. So you're going to always hold your gua sha tool at a 45 degree angle and you're going to find the best curve or the best position to put it onto your face. Now I like to use this long straight part right here to do my neck and so on the neck you're going to do each of these exercises eight times and we're going to do this in real time. So do that 45 degree angle, medium pressure, nothing that's going to get anybody going or anything. I forgot how many that was. I think it was five, six, seven and eight and then we're going to do the other side one, two, three, four, five, six, seven and eight and we're straight up the neck and I'm going to chant one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. This helps so much with puffiness. Okay now we're going to go on to our jawline. The reason that I do it in this order is you're going to see at the very end how I get everything to drain. So, and I want everything lifted so I don't want to really be going down even though everything drains down right but we're going to be trying to lift at the same time. So my jawline right here is getting so saggy. So I'm taking that edge right there and I'm going right underneath the chin and I'm coming clear out to the ear and when I get out to the ear I do a little wiggle. Now why do I do that? Because as you're pushing all that fluid you're also pushing it towards where we're draining which is clear out here. So I want all that fluid that I just pushed up for my neck to go out and drain out here. Also with your length if you have sinuses that hurt, if you have a cold, if you have the flu where your nose is so backed up and you can't you know breathe or anything I do this on my husband when he has bad headaches. This is just a miracle for him for me to be able to do this. So I'm going to turn it this way in this hand because we were just there actually I forgot to do the wiggle didn't I? But we will wiggle right here. I was talking too much I wasn't paying attention to what I'm doing. So out and wiggle out there at the edge and what I want you to notice right here is that you may have a little kind of crunching feeling going on as you're doing this that's totally normal and what that is is that is little kernels or little maybe calcified spots or little pockets of extra lymphatic fluid that you're trying to get rid of and I use a little bit more pressure on this part and you can already see how my skin is starting to get a little bit more pink as we're doing this and again I'm sorry if I didn't do eight each time I'm talking and I just don't realize what I'm doing. Okay now I'm going to use this side or you can use right here and we're going to do the chin and I'm going to just go out I can really feel this part when I start doing this this is a huge part and I don't know why I think it's because I keep a lot of attention in my jaw so I'm pushing it out that way now I'm going to push it up this way I don't want you to go onto the top of your cheek and the reason is cosmetic and you'll be really surprised when I tell you this when you are doing this if you leave your cheek alone you're going to get a little bit fuller cheek and for me that's a really big deal when I do get a little bit fuller cheek because as I've aged I've really lost a lot of volume in there and I'm going to split this in two so only did four so now I'm going to do my upper lip and again hold on to your lip there two this is where I feel a ton of those kernels okay now we're going to do four more of these right around that cheekbone just right underneath it pulling all of that lymphatic fluid out and then go on your nose this is where the sinus comes in and this is huge go on your nose same part right there and just do just to the cheek this is where I kind of just do this scooping motion like this this feels really good and there are a lot of kernels in my nose I don't know why and then over the eye this is over the cheekbone so and it's okay to do it over your eye as a matter of fact if you have puffy eyes this is a huge tool for you to be able to get rid of your puffy eyes and now you're going to go over into the orbital bone here kind of stay away from that eye socket not necessarily that it's going to cause damage if you're not pushing very hard but I just think it's better to kind of you know protect the eyes if we can and this one is just I'm going just above that eye socket so I can feel that soft part where the eye is and I'm going just above it and you can imagine how much this does as far as taking care of all of that fluid that you have I ate salt last night I am hooked on club crackers for some silly reason anyway they were so salty this package that I had last night well I get the little snack packs you know and um yeah they were so salty I was like when I woke up I'm like now you're gonna just on this part you're gonna go straight up and you're going to do that a few times and you can do that on this rounded part you can do it on this curved part if you want to as well but I find that this rounded part gives me a little bit more I don't know a little bit more pressure and I like that on my forehead because I always feel like my forehead doesn't quite get enough now notice I'm not wiggling on this part that's because right now I'm going to go over here and I'm going to go into the hairline again right here on the outside now this one is really good for pushing it out if you're doing half of it with me I want you to stop and I want you to just think about the two sides of your face I feel like this is just really tingly I don't I don't know if that's just me or if that's the castor oil or what but even no matter when I've done gua sha I felt the blood start coming to this area blood is what builds collagen and you also want to get rid of all that toxic lymph that's gathered into your face so now I've done all of this I want to just really quickly do right here because this part didn't get too much as I was doing my eye now we've done all this up right we've pulled all this up we need it to drain out of our bodies your lymphatic system drainage starts behind your ear and goes all the way down your neck so now I want you to take your gua sha and you can take this part or this part I personally would go right here on this edge because you're getting a little bit more area to drain five sorry I forgot to count and you're pushing it down here you can also go behind here if you want to if you're holding a lot of tension it's really good to do that now right here across the chest this is important because you do have a drainage system right here as well so if you're ever doing any sort of body gua sha you're going to want this to be your channel of drainage because that's how the lymph the lymph works so I'm going to just push all of this up this is my whole decollete and I get a little bit of pain in here too not from my breasts just the little kernels that I can feel in there so this is kind of breaking those up and you know getting rid of all that extra toxins so we're going to go now and we're going to track right across here right in our above our collarbone track through there because remember I said that this is drainage right through here I apologize the mirror right here I'm trying to look in and then track above the collarbone but below the collarbone is where that drainage sits so both above the collarbone and below it I always feel a lot of drainage if you want to you can also go into your arm and your armpit you can take that system that we were just draining go down and go out through the breast just straight down I'm not going to do my other side of my face I think we maybe can see a little bit more glow on this side hopefully and I do
