15 POUR ’N’ SNORE

-

Just bought a tongue scraper? Good work, but, man, are you behind the times. Another ancient Ayurvedic therapy has penetrated the zeitgeist; say hello to shirodhara. It involves pouring liquids – therapy oils, milk, coconut water – over the forehead (we recommend treating yourself to a spa day for this one – the DIY version will be messy) to ease symptoms of anxiety and general stress, as well as improving the quality of sleep. With one study likening it to meditation, the necessary evil of having to wash your hair might just be worth it.
