RELAX BT EXERCISING
I

"Relax by Exercising.” A great
number of people today suffer con
.tinually from nervous tension. Ex
•srclse will aid materially In remedy
ting this condition. Exercise does
t,two important things: tlrst. It en
tourages relaxation and second. It
.speeds up circulation and conse
'quently elimination. When nerv
ous tensions are relaxed the body
functions normally, provided, of
course, that the Individual Is free
from any other physical disorder.
A special Interval for relaxation

a A twenty-minute period of per
fect relaxation after the bustle and

:ro life—If you work at It. Most
ueopte have a very difficult time re
eling, so give yourself every op
ortunlty to do It right. Precede
le rest by a leisurely shower and
set of exercises designed to
tfosen the nervous tension which
.is been gathering bit by bit since
*Sn awoke this morning. Do not
1 ear binding garments or have your
csfr op on curlers.
dAll exerclseo taken to relieve
urTons tension should he per
j-med in an effortless manner.
*jy good set of stretching exercises
jrformed In a lazy way will serve
9 gerpose. For the back muscles:
■and with feet wide apart and let
ttrink fall forward limply, the
d a»d arms dangling loosely,
lalgbtca the body and repeat
wly several times,
renewing the exercises He down
a bed In a quiet unilghted room
In the most comfortable position
you cun lind nnd concentrate on re
laxing. Sturt with your feet, then
your legs, nnd so on all over the
body, consciously striving to relax
until yon feel limp and comfortable.
Finally you will feel very heavy
and perfectly at ease. Warm com
presses on the eyes will relax the
muscles around them. Don’t do any
mental gymnastics at this time.
Try to forget all the trials of the
day and think only of your bodily
comfort.
This sounds as If It Is a great
effort to relux. It’s true. Few per
sons know how to relax and the job
Is worth concentrating on. Once
mastered. It Is automatic.
Exercises done with vigor and
enthusiasm. In addition to stimulat
ing the process of elimination of
bodily waste, will make you feel
young and light on your feet Here
Is a splendid exercise to aid you In
preserving Arm abdominal muscles
and a supple waist line.
Lie flat on your back on the floor
(sure the bed Is softer, but—)
hands clasped behind the bead or
neck, legs and feet together. Rise
slowly to a sitting position to the
count of five. Feel the pull on the
abdominal muscles. Slowly return
to original position. If this exer
cise proves difficult at first and you
have trouble keeping your feet on
the flloor, pin them under a chair
or bed. Eventually do the exercise
unaided.
So, In outlining the beauty pro
gram which you are to follow
throughout the year, don’t forget
the Important part relaxation
should play In your dally habits.
And to relax properly, you must ex
ercise—the most effective method
! of unllmberlng tense muscles and
stimulating the process of elimin
ation.
