Find a shot of energy

Feeling seasonally sluggish? Energy healer Alla Svirinskaya has an easy cold water patting ritual that will really get you moving. "It's very effective to combine cold water with gentle massage," says Alla. "It gives you a sense of vitality, as well as reducing the desire to overeat, and is known to improve memory and concentration." Sounds just what we need! Here's how...

  • First, stand naked in your bathroom.
  • Put one hand under running cold water and energetically pat the cold, wet palm against your other dry palm, until both become slightly pink in colour.
  • Continue to wet one hand (up to you which one) under the tap, then rhythmically and energetically pat your chest, arms and legs all the way down to the soles of your feet.

We guarantee you'll feel a whole lot zingier and it's a damn sight easier than a two-handed massage!
