Royal Rituals
Graceful, delicate hands have long held a fascination and been considered an essential part of Royalty in Asian cultures. During the Moghul era, the ideal hand was considered to be smooth, un-tanned, with long, graceful fingers.
Indian royals were very proud of their slender fingers, with art from the era prominently displaying long slender hands of the empresses & princesses holding various regal objects.
Ancient Manicures
Manicuring & coloring the nails are nothing new. Myrrh has been used by African Royals to strengthen their nails for thousands of years, while Egyptian Royals decorated their nails by dipping them in orange henna. Elsewhere, long nails were symbols of power; members of the Chinese nobility grew their fingernails to absurd lengths, decorating them with jewel-encrusted nail guards.
Even in ancient Ceylon, ladies of the royal court are said to have been influenced by Ayurveda practices & indulged in exotic natural hand care rituals – using the island’s abundant spice oils & nutrient coconut oil.
Caring Rituals for Hands
The hands are sites of powerful pressure points connecting every part of your body via meridians or energy channels, so stimulating these vital points with a weekly hand massage gives you a total workout. Manicures & hand massages release overall tension, allowing you to stand tall, improving posture & restoring the free flow of energy through your entire system.
