The Big "O"
The first exercise that I will introduce to you, is BIG O.
This exercise:
- Smoothens nasolabial folds lines.
- Improves the blood circulation in the entire face and neck
It works for these muscles:
- Zygomaticus (minor and major),
- Levator labii superiors alaegue nasi,
- Nasalis,
- Orbicularis oculi ( lower part),
- Orbicularis oris ( upper part ),
Open your mouth, make an O shape with your mouth, and make your face long, pressing the upper lip area firmly against the teeth.
Feel the stretch in the muscles surrounding the mouth and nose.
Hold this pose for 5 seconds.
Let’s Repeat two more times.
How was this for you?
Could you open your mouth enough?
Do you feel any discomfort?
Maybe pain?
You should feel the muscle movement from the corners of the mouth to the corners of the eyes if you are doing it correctly.
