Inner and outer beauty-Xmas season body and soul peaceful pause

As during Xmas holidays, we somethimes  over-do  and over-organize too much, slowing down for a while and making a pause at home may be a very simple and beautiful gift for you and your loved ones around.  

It may be as simple as sitting in your sofa, shutting down your smartphone and your tablet, light a candle and create a peaceful atmosphere by doing so,  then quietly relax your back and your shoulders and make some conscious breathing like this one which is truely useful when overtired or feeling overstressed  : “I deeply expire the old and I inspire the new “.

Then enjoy an all natural homemade beauty  to nourish your skin in a smooth and truly comforting way. 
Pomegranate is a fabulous fruit wellknown for its highly regenerating, detoxifying and anti-aging great effects since antiquity as egyptian women already appreciated it very much and used it as an essential product for taking care of their inner and outer beauty. 

• Preparation : 5 minutes
• 1 pomegranate 
• Cut the top of the pomegranate with a sharp and small knife then separate it in four pieces. Extract the seeds of a quarter of the pomegranate with the help of a small spoon and put them in a bowl. Press the seeds with your fingers to extract the juice, soak a cotton with the pomegranate juice and gently apply to your face and your neck. Then relax, eat slowly the fresh pomegranate seeds left and savore while quietly listening to some cool music for about 15 minutes. Then gently clean your face and your neck with some rose water.

Tip to regenerate : if you want to make a detox diet pause in order to cleanse your liver and kidneys  before or after Xmas time, eat one pomegranate per day during one week.
