Physical activity has many benefits, such as helping to improve memory and brain function, aiding in weight management, lowering blood pressure, and improving quality of sleep. In addition, when we perform strenuous physical activities, we tend to sweat a lot.
Sweating is how your body cools itself; as the sweat evaporates, it cools your skin and the blood in the vessels beneath it. Sweat also has numerous other benefits such as detoxing - helping to expel heavy metals like mercury, lead, cadmium and arsenic. However, sweat can’t flush out all toxic compounds, so it’s important to drink clean, healthy filtered water and follow a healthy diet.
Meditation relaxes your mind and body, releasing stress and tension. Stress leads to poor health and according to government studies, it even affects hormonal levels. By reducing stress levels, meditation can even help maintain optimal testosterone levels.
Many fail to understand that meditation is not hard nor complicated. You can easily master the basics by learning to sit still, relax, and simply focus your attention on your breathing. Once you’ve mastered that, you can then migrate to more complicated techniques to explore a deeper understanding of meditation.

Just as it is for women, it is vital for men to cleanse their faces regularly. Perhaps even more so, as men’s skin tends to be oilier than that of women due to the increased presence of sebaceous glands that create oil to keep the skin lubricated and healthy. Ideally, you should wash your face twice daily, once in the morning and once before bed. Use a face scrub once or twice a week (any more and you can run the risk of over-drying your skin).
For rinsing, we highly recommend using water from a Nasoni bathroom water filter. Nasoni’s water filters keep your water tasting great, and remember, drinking sufficient water can do a lot of good for helping your skin. It also removes chlorine from your water. Because chlorine is a natural irritant, it opens pores and strips the skin of its natural oils that keep it moisturized and healthy. Too much exposure to chlorine dries out the skin and causes irritation and itchiness.
And after you’ve rinsed the facial scrub away, you’ll want to apply serum to replenish nutrients, followed by a moisturizer to hydrate your skin.
