The art of balance… ⚖️ I am a libra after all x

Qi is your life force energy, what you consume in all forms feeds it 💞

Joy nourishes the Shen, so I’m choosing to believe it all balances itself out*
Please don’t fact check this with my lecturers x

Alcohol is hot and drying in TCM terms, so it can be pretty depleting on our Yin and body fluids.
To nourish Yin think hydration, juicy pears, nourishing broths and generally giving my body abit of love x

Good for the soulllll ☺️

I’ve lived in the extremes. These days I’m much more interested in finding the magic somewhere in the middle and enjoying myself along the way xoxo by @ellieofelements

Some of my fav facial cosmetic acupuncture points 💁🏼‍♀️. A treatment that supports circulation, lymphatic flow & skin hydration, whilst working with the bodies deeper networks to balance and regulate the nervous system. Beauty from the inside out. 💎 by @ellieofelements

At the beginning of the year, I felt like everything was starting to travel south 😂 I’ve tried Botox in the past, and while I completely understand why people love it, it just wasn’t for me. Once it had worn off, I wanted to see what could happen if I started working with my face instead.

And things started waking back up 🤩 My eyes feel more open, my cheeks look more lifted and defined and overall my face just feels more alive and mine again.

And I think my favourite part of all of this has been reconnecting with expression while still noticing improvements and a lift 💅🏻

I’m not anti-Botox at all, but I realised I was craving a deeper mind body connection and wanted to feel more in tune with my emotions. I’m very big on feel it to release it. And as someone who has struggled with feeling & expressing I felt as though Botox was contributing to that disconnect. 😅 (again - no shade!)

It can actually be a really difficult decision to go against typical beauty standards and what’s expected of you, especially as women. We’re judged if we do, and we’re judged if we don’t. So I’ve realised you’re kind of best just doing what feels right for you. However that looks!
And for those wondering Botox + cosmetic acupuncture don’t have to be enemies. Treatments can be adapted around Botox, avoiding recently treated areas and giving some love to the areas that can still be worked with. 🩵

April -> August
Since April I’ve been regularly giving myself Acu Lift facials + cosmetic acupuncture, playing around with facial exercises and becoming much more conscious of how I hold and use the muscles in my face. by @ellieofelements

Snippets of some hands on techniques during an Acu Lift Facial.
Here you can see me working with the fascia release ball to release muscular tension. Using faster-paced massage techniques to warm and stimulate the tissues and boost circulation, before the deeper sculpting work begins. ✨ by @ellieofelements

The Acu Lift Facial
Before the tools, I begin with my hands.
Working gently with the fascia helps prepare the tissues, inviting the body to settle into a state that supports rest and repair. 💫 by @ellieofelements

One of my favourite areas to work on? Around the ears.
Supporting lymphatic drainage. Releasing jaw and neck tension. Helping to reduce puffiness, minimise fluid retention and reveal a more sculpted-looking face. 🦋 by @ellieofelements
