Instead of spending plenty of money on Botox, how about a Facial Yoga class instead?
Yes, it is true, you can now take a yoga class dedicated entirely to the muscles in your face.
Do poses such as the Smiling Fish, the Marilyn, and the Satchmo. Click here to read the about this new trend in Yoga classes. It is based on the premise that facial muscles, like any other muscles, need exercise to stay toned.
While I definitely agree with this, I don’t think I could get on board with spending an hour making funny faces at myself in the mirror. (Didn’t our moms warn us that our faces might stay that way?) I might have to skip this trend and embrace my worry wrinkles.
How about you, would you try Facial Yoga?

Hi Lisa–The link isn’t working. I saw an Oprah a few months ago about a Laughing Class in which people all got in an aerobics room and went through various poses mostly using facial expressions and their abdominals. It was entertaining, but I agree with you that I couldn’t put the money down to dedicate time through out the week to a full hour class. It’s great to apply the ideas to everyday living though. Our kids would have a kick out of us making all these crazy faces and we can do it from the comfort of our own home!

Hmmmmmm…I’d have to think about that. Maybe after I lost this last 10-15 lbs that won’t go away:-(

I’d give it a try. It can’t hurt, right? Plus, it’s probably cheaper too.

Cindy, thanks for letting me know the link was broken–it should work now.
I heard about the laughing yoga on Oprah but never saw the episode.
I agree, we can all use some extra laughs in our day!
