A Skinny Cow Is Not Yet A Gazelle…

A Skinny Cow Is Not Yet A Gazelle…

     - Get dressed in hot items!

     - Lose weight or got your muscles well exercised!

     - Good makeup can do wonders!

     This is the list of the most popular answers to the question of how one can make oneself look more beautiful. Here we shall note that people usually judge about their own appearance standing in front of the mirror or looking at the picture. And in this way they forget that the adequate perception of a person as a whole is possible only subject to observing the dynamics of the moves of his body, his facial gestures and the structure of his speech. One’s natural, well-coordinated and easy movements without neurotic gestures and a well-disposed facial expression make it possible to perceive the person as the one of natural beauty. Unlike the market pattern of beauty that emphasizes only the sexuality of one’s appearance that requires a good deal of both time and finance for its maintenance.

     In my opinion one should start to improve oneself with working out the dynamics of one’s body, with mastering the easiness of movement of every part of it. And frankly speaking, it does not matter much what way you choose to start doing it with: trying various kinds of sport in turns, trying different dance styles or doing yoga – the main point here is that you should enjoy it and it should not be detrimental to your health. Moreover, it is such doing different kinds of exercises that will help you avoid a specific deformation of body posture that is characteristic of some particular kinds of sports. It would be also good to periodically change the whole lifestyle as well, but this is already the next question to discuss.

      When start working on your body, you should first define which part of it is not that harmonious-looking. In order to do this you can use video, and it’s not necessary to shoot the exercises. You can take the movie of any event where you behave in your natural way. It would be even better if you were unaware of your being filmed. Try to analyze the way you stand, you walk, gesticulate, what poses you strike when talking to people.

      For instance, if you find out that wearing nice high-heeled shoes makes you look like a “wounded grasshopper”, you should start with mastering the smooth gait without heels and with your foot flat on the ground, adding up the equilibrium poses and evenly distributing the body weight on the foot. Such skill can also come as a result of doing various sports that train the balance-keeping.

      Or you’ve discovered that the clothes that were fitting so nice when trying them on have suddenly started to pucker up. Perhaps, you natural desire to look “more stately” in front of the mirror cannot transfer into the habit of imposing walk due to weak muscles of your back or chest. In this case some proper work should be done with your spine.

       There is a number of methods you may use for this purpose. But for already mentioned sports and dancing you can also get some result from physiotherapy, physical exercises and massage. But it’s probably only yoga as spiritual exercises that helps to understand the psychological backgrounds of disharmonious body posture and to proceed with conscious choice of the target and direction of your development, without falling into “dependence” upon a fitness instructor, a massage therapist or the social patterns.
