Namita Nayyar:
What is the secret behind your age-defying looks? Share your daily skin & hair care routine? A secret rejuvenation therapy?
Sunaina Rekhi:
I am 40 years old and there is no doubt in my mind that how you treat your body on the inside is truly reflected in how you look on the outside. All the products in the world cannot replace the radiance of skin that has been nourished from within.
I believe without a doubt in my mind that how you treat your body with good food, move your body everyday, have the confidence to believe in yourself; and get plenty of water and sleep. Oh, and be happy and wear sunscreen!
I try to stick to the same routine because when it comes to skin, I believe consistency is important.
One of the most important things as far as your skin is concerned, is to make sure you stay hydrated. Your skin hydrates during the night so I always have a glass of water by the side of my bed to drink as soon as I wake up.
Because I exercise in the morning I will just splash my face with water, dab on a little eye cream to hydrate around my eyes, moisturise and put on a little sunscreen and I’m off.
Exercise plays a vital role in healthy skin. It not only lifts your mood but it aids your detoxification processes by stimulating lymphatic drainage and eliminating any nasty toxins through sweating.
I find beginning my day with some stretches followed by a workout like walking is a great way to get my circulation moving and kick-start my day (and metabolism!)
Namita Nayyar:
How do you spend the day with your daughter? Does she practice yoga? Describe a day with your daughter? Can you please give two examples of rituals, specifically for parents?
Sunaina Rekhi:
If you’re afraid you’re not being a good enough parent, designate uninterrupted time to talk with your child about the day, preferably at bedtime, at least twice a week. When this becomes a habit, you’ll feel closer to your kids, and you’ll feel more confident in your parenting. This time is for you to listen and be together. Ask to watch them play their favorite game or play with their favorite toy, and stay with it. Be enchanted by your child’s mind and heart and questions.
Ask your child what you could’ve done better that day. Or what you just didn’t handle well. That kid will tell you if you keep the space safe for him or her to talk. Please remember to listen well and don’t try to defend. Stay soft and receive – you’ll get all the information you’ll need to be great for your child, and that will inspire your child to be great for you.
