Botox-Free. How Yoga Can Put a Shine on You. Dear Friend, Mother Nature does it best. On the front page of an edition of the FT last week was a report that looked to me like paid-for product placement. It was about Botox : “Botox boom shows no sign of sagging as inflation hits luxury sector”. The report was essentially an advertisement for Galderma, a Swiss cosmetic surgery clinic, who are pushing their trademarked injectable, Sculptra, for removing facial wrinkles.   Increasing numbers of men are turning to Botox, according to lad’s bible, GQ, as the men’s grooming market hots up. One of the reasons cited for wanting smoother skin is that it provides a confidence boost in an increasingly competitive jobs market. But if we take a step back to remind ourselves what Botox is : getting injected with modified bacteria toxin to paralyse facial muscles, it does make you wonder if this isn’t too extreme. Just being regular with your Sahaja yoga practice could be sufficient and far less invasive for enhancing your facial appearance, if that’s the way you want to go. When vibes flow down through your Sahasrara chakra into your Nabhi chakra, a form of ‘subtle metabolism’* takes place. The vibes are broken down into the tanmatras (radiance/light emollience/ water etc.) which feed through into your appearance. One of the enjoyments I get at the weekly group meditation, is seeing the gradual transformation in someone, facial and otherwise, as the effects of their daily kundalini meditation begin to show. This is far deeper than the temporary, skin-level effect of a cosmetic intervention  like Botox. More below. Also below: the benefits of eating chickpeas; and, getting a feel for things on your fingertips.   Best wishes P. *This ‘subtle matabolism’ is the reflex mechanism by which it’s been predicted that human beings will no longer get sick or grow old as the Age of Aquarius (Kundalini) fully develops.  PS.

In brief advice from 1978 about making use of things that give you vibes, Shri Mataji mentioned eating garlic and chickpeas (chana) to improve your vibes. Personally, I’ll settle for the chickpeas, which I’ve made a point of including in my diet. If you’re a garlic person, here’s how to take it…Chew on This. Wired - Feeling Things at Your Fingertips (a Meditation). Some things are better felt than thought about. This might include doing your DJ set at the club, or simply ‘feeling’ the right decision to make in a given situation. Your vishuddhi chakra has a big part to play in all of this. Here’s a short meditation to clear your vishuddhi so you can feel things better on your fingertips...Sense the Motion. Hamming - Your Power of Facial Expression. The ‘chakra of your personality’ is your Vishuddhi chakra in your throat. it’s what gives expressiveness to your eyes and voice and helps you relate easily to others. Your Vishuddhi is also a reflection of the state of your Nabhi chakra. Here’s how what happens at Nabhi can produce a radiance on your face via your Vishuddhi …Light Up.

It lools after the neck. It looks after the ears. It looks after the nose.” February 2nd 1983, New Delhi (India) About Shri Mataji (More Than Human) Your Question Answered Also feel free to share here any experiences you’ve had with the meditation; any insights, or any comments that might be helpful to other readers I’ve started foot-soaking now after meaning to try it for a long time, and I felt the effect straightaway. I slept better. Is it OK to use ordinary table salt and lukewarm water? Reply: Yes, using ordinary table salt for your footsoaking is OK. I tend to use course sea salt, available in supermarkets.  The salt in the water represents the earth element and course sea salt, because it doesn’t dissolve immediately, gives the literal feeling of standing on earth. The water should be as cool as you can bear it because its purpose is to absorb the heat of your right-side over-activity.
