Imagine a beautiful, majestic Iceberg...
It exudes its natural beauty, like a cut diamond, attracting the eye and arousing admiration.
The part of the iceberg that is visible to the naked eye is only the tip.
"Tip" only. It is estimated that about 80% of its total weight is under the water cover.
Now imagine that our body is like an iceberg. Under the cover of water is what is invisible to the naked eye, and which is about 80% of how we live, how we function, whether we are happy, and of course how we look. In the cosmetology office, we deal with the tip of the beautiful iceberg, which is our skin and the outer layer, which is the whole body.
And now about what's more difficult, what's underneath.
Everything below the surface of the water has a direct impact on what happens on the surface. Our body is connected by an advanced net of blood vessels that connects all our organs, including the skin. Holistic cosmetology deals with everything that is invisible to the eye. In order to bring beauty and beauty to the surface, he delves into many areas that we should take into account to achieve excellent well-being and a healthy radiant look for longer.
For many years, I have intuitively delved into related fields of cosmetology to understand how everything affects each other and what we - personally, have an impact on ourselves.
Today I want to share this with you. In order to avoid a huge headache caused by the excess of information, I have selected practical information that will not only help us understand what's going on, but also (I hope) arouse your curiosity.
NOW!
MEET "THE ICEBERG OF BEAUTY", which will be our metaphor and guide on the journey to consciously familiarize yourself with your own possibilities.
WHAT DO WE GAIN?
EVERYTHINHG! Knowledge is power.
The more you know, the more you have the opportunity to really influence your life, and in our case, your health, happiness and appearance.
HERE WE GO!
As you can see in my beautiful attached picture, many things impact the beauty of the "top". My task, my mission, is not only to share with you what I already know, but also to simplify everything in such a way that even in today's "busy" times I find the willingness and willingness to introduce cool, helpful and practical changes.
HEALTH
Health - a matter of course. Each of us knows that health affects everything, but only few know exactly what ways. All kinds of deficiencies or excesses of micro and macro elements, hormonal disbalance, not only make us feel worse, but also DIRECTLY affect the skin. How? For example, by slowing down the synthesis of collagen, contributing to the formation of discoloration or acne even in adults.
WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO WITH IT?
I will show you what disorders can be behind skin problems and how to check it.
GUTS/MICROBIOM
It's not a new that our guts contain "little" residents we call the gut microbiome. Relatively a new are studies that prove that the gut microbiome has such a huge impact on our brain and body that it should be treated as a separate SYSTEM. The gut and gut microbiome have a direct impact on the skin.
For what else? Immunity = microbiome. Food cravings = microbiome. Depressed moods = microbiome. Immunity in children = microbiome. Skin = skin microbiota.
WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO WITH IT?
I will show you how a strong microbiome is created, why we keep losing it and why our great-grandparents didn't have to worry about it as much as we do today.
FOOD
And again. We are not discovering America here by saying that eating the right food is crucial for health, but it would be nice to understand and copy what kind of food affects the "strong" microbiota, our immunity and skin.
WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO WITH IT?
You will not find in here diet plans. I'll tell you what's going on with antioxidants, what groups of food and Superfoods affect immunity and attention... to a specific type of skin. You will be able to make your own informed choices.
SUPPLEMENTATION
Vitamins, minerals, etc. Everyone has a larger or smaller kit in their home first aid kit, but most use them at random. In the prevention of skin aging, as well as in the reduction of skin problems, supplementation plays a fairly important role, which often goes hand in hand with cosmetology treatments.
WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO WITH IT?
I will tell you which supplements REALLY work, how to use them, what not to combine with and how to get out of the so-called "marketing traps" that promise miracles, and have nothing to do with the real impact on our body.
COSMETOLOGICAL TREATMENTS
I am a Holistic Cosmetologist. In the office, I work with different types of skin, with completely different needs. You need to look at the needs of each skin holistically and choose the right therapy that will work ON YOU. What helped your friend will not always be good for you. A practicing cosmetologist is to be able to look at everyone individually.
WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO WITH IT?
I'll tell you why we do cosmetology treatments, how cosmetology treatments impact the skin and what's TRENDY right now.
HOME SKINCARE
The choice of home care cosmetics is now bigger than ever. It's extremally confusing now. It really is. It is good to know that home care is about 60% of success in anti-aging prevention, and lifting massages - even more.
WHAT WILL WE DO ABOUT IT?
You will find out what the specific stages of home care are for, what active ingredients to look for in creams and how to perform a 5-minute face lifting massage.
BODY
Ah, body my body! It would be nice if it was more like this or less like that. And again, it is worth knowing what you need to remember so that the body cooperates with us, so that the weight is at a healthy level, and what we can do at home and in the beauty salon to shape our contours.
WHAT WILL WE DO ABOUT IT?
We introduce habits that will reduce our tendency to retain water in the body, and we will learn cool techniques that will make the skin smooth, healthy and the silhouette modeled. We will make a home spa.
BRAIN
Who knows that there are cool ways to "hack" the brain to make us more energettic and less "slow"? I guess each of us knows that feeling when there is nothing in the head, you don't want to do anything, and the whole world is only painted in all shades of gray ( and it has nothing to do with "50 Shades Of Grey" :D). It turns out that we can "bio-hack" our brain to live a fuller and better life.
WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO WITH IT?
I'm going to share with you cool ways to 'bio-hacking' that I discovered in times when my life energy was so low that in my last fight for survival, I started looking for information on how to 'strengthen my head'. I'll tell you what helped me.
MIND
Ach, our beautiful Mind. Anyone who knows me knows that I love everything related to good mood, relaxation techniques and well-being in general. I love to take care of the mind, good atmosphere, aroma, relaxation and soothing the soul :)
WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO WITH IT?
Of course, we will introduce into our busy lives IDEAS, more or less known, to make us feel much better and we will pack it in mini pills so that there is always time and desire for it.
WELL!! :D
I KNOW IT'S A LOT.
If you have made it this far with me, then you are ready to RECOVER. Because in order to heal, you have to be ready for it.
You can see how many things affect us. It takes a lot of time and commitment to delve into each of these categories. Most of us give up this digging, because we simply lack the time, and most of all, the energy. Personally, I think that fatigue is our greatest enemy, but together we can really do a lot.
WHO'S GOING WITH ME ON A JOURNEY INTO THE ICEBERG?
I promise it will be really interesting and I am sure that each of us will come out victorious. Making small changes in your life is always a change for the better.
