FOOT IS THE INDEX OF YOUR CLEANLINESS

                        In this modern world (where beauty is a major concern to every people) the efforts of the people to adorn themselves is only restricted to certain parts of their body. Major area of their notice is the ‘face’. But what about the other areas? If we admire a person, normally our eyes would notice how bright and clean the concerned person is. But few people have their ‘foot’ and ‘face’ at two extremities. Their face would be bleached so perfectly to correspond a celebrity. But their feet would be not cared, for many dirty structures to reside. A face that of celebrity’s and a feet that of a savage one is really a contrast. Closely try and witness what I’m about to say. A person keeping his feet clean and adorned will truly employ this clean factor in other deeds too. But if you see a person with the contrast that I’ve mentioned above, he would be silently wallowing in filth.  But he will pretend to be clean by keeping his face alone clean.

                       The emphasis on foot care is that we need to understand that ‘foot care’ matters as much as ‘face care’. Are we neglecting it because it is the lowest part of our body? If so follow what I say. After work or returning home after a strenuous routine, our body and mind needs relaxation. Switch on your water heater and have some luke-warm water in a tub and immerse your feet in it. Sit in a chair comfortably and close your eyes, meditating until the water gets cooled down. It is better if Dettol or lemon extract is added to it. After this, take a shower and clean your feet with soapy scrubber. Just like clipping our finger nails, clip your toe nails simultaneously. Weekly once, clean your heels with a smooth and rough stone in order to remove the dead cells.

                                 During bed time a mixture of 2 teaspoon of glycerin, 2 teaspoon of rose water and lemon extract can be applied to the feet to keep it moisturized. Or rather a moisturizer can be used to make the feet more lively.

                            But what about if the feet is already damaged? It never matters. A paste of neem leaves and turmeric is advisable to be applied over the crack on the heels. Brushing the heels during bathing will help remove cracks eff

ectively. If protection is given to your feet by wearing domestic slippers, most of the ill factors affecting your feet will not come in contact. Gentle scrub with lime skin, kills the bacteria present in the feet. For smoothened and soft feet, it is best to massage with mustard oil. Brushing feet using a scrubber soaked in salt water or in a cup of curd will soften your feet up to some extent.

                             I’m sure that these are a lot of points and tips when the feet is concerned, alone. So will you look after your feet while looking your face in the mirror? If you do so, you’re ‘the clean man of the year’
