Slow Beauty - Art & Science of Cultivating Beauty from Within

Slow beauty is 'beauty reimagined', and is a deep inward approach to realizing, cultivating & preserving beauty which is beyond skincare.

The ideology of slow beauty is based on living beauty as a lifestyle. It is about making mindful choices in foods, movement practices, rituals, lifestyle & way of life with awareness. The 7th limb of Ashtanga Yoga emphasis on the importance of the quality of 'Dhyan' or mindful focus to redirect the energy towards a specific goal. Cultivating slow beauty is a daily goal built with focus & awareness. Slow beauty transcends beyond skincare to include the elements of selfcare & wellness as important dimensions of skincare to cultivate beauty from within.

Slow beauty ideology is slowly redefining beauty & challenging the modern standards of beauty that define beauty just at the layer of epidermis! There is so much potential to cultivate beauty below the layers of epidermis that modern skincare industry still needs to tap into! Slow beauty begins where epidermis ends! It begins at the layer of muscles, body tissues, organs, body systems, connective tissue, fascia, bones, cells & energetic channels called 'nadis' in yoga & 'meridians' in Eastern wellness philosophy.

Svarasya's Slow Beauty Philosophy

Svarasya is on the path of redefining beauty. While the modern beauty world focuses on the external element of beauty, Svarasya intends to raise beauty consciousness around internal elements of beauty, that are so large, so deep, these elements transcend till each cell & beyond to the energy channels of the body & mind. The modern beauty standards are still away from beauty beyond skincare, while the practices from Yoga, Ayurveda & Eastern philosophy tap-in into this unspoken territory of beauty & include practices that cultivate beauty below the layer of epidermis to nourish the youth factor, raise consciousness, enhance longevity, & make you vibrate at a higher frequency to experience a state of bliss.

Yoga - Cultivating Beauty with Movement & Stillness

Yoga nurtures beauty with movement by enhancing circulation, detoxifying the body by flushing the lymphatic system, building muscular strength, supporting collagen production with deep connective tissue & fascia stretches. Pranayama improves the flow of prana energy in the body that imparts glow on the skin. Meditation practices harmonize the nervous system creating long-lasting beauty from deep within.

Ayurveda - Cultivating Beauty by Living a Beauty Lifestyle

Ayurveda's approach to slow beauty is rooted in the idea of living by the cycles of nature. These cycles exist in the day, month & seasons. Dinacharya is the art & science of cultivating slow beauty living by the rhythms of the day according to Ayurveda principles. Similarly, the lunar cycle, & ritucharya, the seasonal cycle has its own set of principles as defined in Ayurveda and is the route to maintaining a state of deep inner balance & harmony with the nature. This way of living naturally supports an inner environment of beauty from within.

Ayurveda teaches that beauty begins with balance & has given us rituals to align the body, mind, and skin. By honoring natural cycles and choosing ingredients tailored to individual constitution, slow beauty in Ayurveda transforms everyday selfcare into a beauty cultivating practice.
