Face Reading

Ever heard of face reading? More of a eastern belief than a western belief, face reading has been used by many traditional Far East practitioners which includes China and Japan. It is believed that by reading faces, one can tell the type of illness one has and the type of food one should avoid.

Today I will be explaining a very simple exercise on how to face read. The diagram below indicates the different organs the face represents. These areas can either be oily, rough or wet. Each texture indicates a certain condition.

Our Face


Rough

Rough skin area indicates that one has consumed excess animal fats. An abundance of saturated fats in the diet produces a hard texture in the skin. Try reducing intake of animal fat and pile on fruits and vegetables.

Oily

Oily skin area results from eating too much oil (fried foods) and from overeating. Overeating causes the excess food to turn into fats which comes out of the skin as oil. Try reducing the amount of food prepared with oil (fried food). Try preparing food the healthy way such as steaming,boiling or baking. Or simple, food in thier natural state. Such as fresh salads prepared with the slightest bit of olive oil and salt and pepper to taste.

Wet

Excess liquid on skin indicates overconsumption of water or other liquids. People with this type of condition usually sweat more easily and have sweaty palms. These people are said to be most likely suffering from overburdened kidneys and sometimes overworked heart.

Try reading the faces of some people you know. After reading, ask them about some problems they may have internally. If it connects with your face analysis, then viola! It works. I have tried it on some of my friends and about 40% of it were true. Just give it a shot! Its fun!

Till next time...
