He who exercises in the morning is doing wisely. If you're still not "charging," read about charging Japanese geishas. There are no squats or push-ups, just pleasant exercises. But they are very effective.

There are many ways to cheer up in the morning - this is strong tea, and aromatic coffee, and charger. But there are also exotic methods - for example, the now popular exercises of Japanese geisha, which they do to meet the day in all their glory and full armor. We asked the rehabilitation therapist Oksana Asokina and the reflexologist and neurologist of the Sofia Med medical center Dilbar Khamidova to clarify their meaning.

Exercise 1. Sakura awakening

Rub your palms together well until they are warm. Then place them over your eyes, count to 5, then wipe your entire face in a circular motion. Next, you should tap the area from the lower jaw to the chin with your fingertips, then the cheekbones, the area around the mouth, the bridge of the nose, walk around the eyes and along the forehead from the center to the temples. Thus, you will not only provide blood flow to the cheeks and nose, but also activate all the projection points of the internal organs. To enhance the effect, rub each finger with the knuckles of your index fingers - there are projections on them as well. By the way, if your head hurts badly, tap a dot in the center of your forehead and the pain will decrease.

Exercise 2. Chirping early birds

Turn your head to the right side as far as you can (as far as you can) and hold in this position for no longer than five seconds, then the same thing - to the left. Repeat the exercise three times: it is useful to warm up the cervical spine and prevent arthrosis.

Exercise 3. A look at Fujiyama

Keep your head straight and tilt it back slightly, make three full circles with your eyes clockwise, and then against it. In doing so, try to use every corner of the eye. Such an exercise improves vision. By the way, this kind of gymnastics is needed not only for training, but also for diagnostics: if it is difficult to “pass” some point, the organ (liver, kidneys, etc.) projected onto it is not in order.

Exercise 4. Silent song

The exercise is done with your mouth closed. Run your tongue over the outside of the lower teeth, then over the inside. Then also over the upper teeth, walk over the palate, gums. Repeat the entire circle 5 times. Silent Song improves blood circulation and helps relieve pain and inflammation in throat and gum disease.

Exercise 5. Rest points

Press gently with your palms on the back of your head (about 10-15 times), and then massage it with your fingertips. So you will improve the microcirculation of the blood of the brain and remove venous congestion.

Exercise 6. Fist fight with myself

Squeeze your hand and lightly tap the chest in the solar plexus area about 10 times with the inner surface of the fist. In this place are the internal organs responsible for the active work of the immune system (for example, the thymus gland). And by tapping you turn on the body's defenses.

Exercise 7. Noise in the shell

Helps to cheer up and massage ears: massage your ears and twitch them in different directions. Do it carefully (without fanaticism and pain). Since the internal organs are also projected onto the shells of the ears, we can assume that in such a simple way you "started up" the liver, kidneys and spleen.

Exercise 8. A journey through the valley of power

Now a series of invigorating rubbing should be done: first, rub the area of ​​the lower back and kidneys for 30 seconds (blood circulation, which means that the work of these organs will improve). Then massage the knees with rotational movements (30 seconds) and the tzu-san-li point, which is located just below the knee on the outside and is called the point for a thousand diseases.

Exercise 9. Velvet feet

Rub each foot thoroughly with both hands, or better yet, stand on the applicator. This therapy activates all vital points, improves blood circulation and relieves joint pain.

Exercise 10. gold fish

Lie on your back on the floor or other hard surface with your arms extended above your head. Legs are straight, tightly pressed to the floor. Toes on yourself, heels rest on the floor. Stretch your legs to one side and your arms to the other. Try to vibrate and shake with your whole body, like a fish caught on the shore. Exercise normalizes blood circulation, stretches the spine, which relieves spasms, reduces back pain and serves as a prevention of osteochondrosis.
