Cold feet? Get warm!

The summer is really over and the fall season is coming down on us with fog, rain and cold days. High humidity in the air makes our hair frizzy and hair-do untidy. And although we tend to wear warmer clothes, we still leave our hands, face and neck unprotected from cold winds.

As it gets colder and colder, and the winter starts, we get more reluctant to get out of warm bed in the morning. Sometime we even tend to skip classes or miss work. If it’s absolutely necessary to go out it takes about five whole minutes to get incurably cold, and the coldness lasts through the whole day.

Now is the right time to learn how to warm yourself up, before the cruel winter gets you. Here are our tips:

If you’re constantly cold, it’s usually bad circulation. How to improve your blood flow? It’s pretty easy, when you know what you’re supposed to be doing.

Drink a cup of hot cinnamon tea with honey in the morning, follow with a 10 minute workout. When you’re in the shower, treat your body to a peeling, first rubbing peeling and then rubbing your body with a bathing glove.

First shower with warm and then cold water, repeat a few times. After showering, when your skin is still warm, apply a generous layer of moisturising cream, which will hold the heat on the surface of your skin.

Try this out, and you’ll feel the change immediately! Plus, wear soft, comfortable socks which won’t stop your blood flow. Treat yourself to a cup of hot chocolate before going to bed (use honey for sweetening). It would be great to try some of the following teas too: nettle (Urtica dioica), everlasting (Calendula officinalis), rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) or birch leaf (Betula alba).
