T here is a soft, sweet, gentle love within our souls and hearts that we rarely acknowledge and even less often embrace. This loving part within each of us is the touchstone at the heart of our Creator. This essence within is a lighted, loving core that feeds us life-force energy, filling us with enthusiasm for all that life sends our way.

Energy surrounds us and affects our every breathing moment, yet we dont often consciously work with it to create an inner balance of emotional and mental peace and exuberant physical health. Many of us travel through each day without thinking about this loving core within us, and sometimes we feel alone, exhausted, and old. To avoid this unpleasant state, we just need to recognize that sacred energy is always available to us from both within and without. Once we acknowledge this, we then can move spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically into its natural, ever-present flow. We can hold the intention of actively working with it and being surrounded by its rejuvenating peace and beauty.

Todays world, which bombards us with information, presents us with many choices of how to lead our lives. So why not choose to act on proven, available techniques that will bring us joy, peace, and physical energy, giving us the enthusiasm of a young child learning a new game?

If you and I practice the carefully outlined spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical steps suggested in Ancient Secrets of Facial Rejuvenation, we will tap into the flow of positive energy, both internal and external, in a big way. We will experience the peace, health, and love that we were meant to enjoy as human beings.

Doing the Acupressure Facelift exercises in this book will provide you with valuable practice in tuning in to the personal and the universal energy source. You will find yourself expressing the inner flow of your energy outwardly, sending it to others through a youthful face that projects and reflects only your deep feelings of contentment and well-being. This practice can also open the way to a wonderful new level of physical health.

You will discover that others will want to learn the secrets behind your youthful well-being. They will feel so good just being around you that they will insist on hearing how you became the new, rejuvenated you. Of course, at that point, you will smile lovingly... and tell them your secret.
