Wake up each morning with a self-massage

I'm not sure I have time for this in the morning, but it definitely sounds like a luxurious way to start the day! This daily morning self-massage is part of Ayurvedic daily routine and seems simple enough to do. All you need is a sink full of warm water, a bottle of massage oil, and an old towel to stand on. Start at your scalp and move down, massaging your face, ears, throat, neck, and then onto your limbs. Afterward, step into a warm shower and enjoy the heat, washing only what you need to with soap so that the oil sits on your skin.

According to Grace Wilson, the author of the post, the massage will protect and nourish your skin and will also help release toxins that accumulate in the tissues.
