While the whole world is trying to fight the pandemic of corona virus together, the lockdown has given all of us a break from our stressful lifestyle. I know we are in a panic phase but we should make the best use of this time period to stay fit and healthy. Since, most of us are working from home, there is less physical activity and more bingeing on food. The best way to deal with these issues is to follow a fitness regime and go for healthy snack options. Another very important thing which can work like magic for your body during lockdown is self ayurvedic massage.
As we all are in quarantine, we do not have the luxury to go to a spa for a relaxing body massage, but you can apply oil yourself on a daily basis. A good quality body oil will not only enhance the quality of your skin and leave it moisturized but will also lubricate your joints. You won’t believe but Ayurveda prescribes that one must apply oil for 5-10 minutes on all body joints after taking a shower. Massage joints can help strengthen them and also improve blood circulation. You can ask your spouse to give you a nice massage back, this will not just relax you but will even help you bond with your partner.
It is important that you apply oil daily during this lockdown, so that your body can get the much needed care which is otherwise not possible because of your hectic work schedule. You will see results in just a matter of days, once you start with Ayurvedic massage knees and joints. Your flexibility and stamina will definitely increase.
So, go ahead give your body the care it truly deserves.
