came back from parkway parade. felt really irritated. tired. and a sense that i didn’t accomplish much studying. all these are ingredients for Fabian’s headaches.
Fabian has realised that one of the best and most instantaneous and satisfying remedies to headaches is to take a long, full bodied shower.
STEP1:
ensure that the bathroom is cleared of all clutter. clear away all pails and toiletries that you do not need to use. if the floor is wet, (probably because someone has just used it) Fabian recommends that you bring in a tower fan, set it to stationary, and blow dry the floor.
STEP 2:
choose your favourite and most comfortable clothes. in Fabian’s case, it would be a t-shirt and a pair of jogging shorts.
STEP3:
enter toilet. turn off all audio entertainment the toilet may have. Fabian foresees a possibility of dancing when there is music in a toilet. this does not help headaches.
wet yourself with lukewarm water to awaken your senses. note : you shouldn’t be holding the shower head. attach it to the stand because you need both hands in the subsequent steps.
STEP4:
lather your hair with your favourite shampoo. Fabian suggests shampoos which help de-tangle and moistuirise hair. avoid medical/hair growth shampoos as they usually have weird, distasteful and often disgusting scents which in most cases, aggravates headaches.
While lathering your hair (on head), work through the scalp with fingertips and not push hair around. ensure that all 1o fingers are fully utilised. using the your fingers, push gently against the bone structure of the top of your head and massage parts of your head that you usually don’t reach. the more hard-to-reach the region of your head, the better the relaxing sensation you will enjoy. Fabian suggests: behing the ears, behind the neck, the top most sides of the head and also near your forehead (region where you hair stops growing aka the hairline). ensure at all times that your fingers are moving and not your palms; as when treating headaches, it is the head which is under stress and not the hair follicles.
STEP 5:
Leaving the shampoo on. wash the rest of your body as you normally do. Fabian shall not explicitly describe this section as he does not want this post to be featured on XXX websites. Fabian recommends the washing of the lower legs and also the base of your feet thoroughly as these are places which are usually not touched under normal circumstances. Fabian believes that activating spots on the body which are usually inactive by touch eases the tension in the brain.
STEP6:
WASH FACE with facial cleanser. thoroughly massage your face as you usually do but now, focus on the bone structure. following the cheek bones and your nose trace with your fingers the bone in which your eyes are set. circle these eye bones carefully but with sufficient strength as your eyes have seen too much evil and are probably in need of relaxation. (jokes aside, it really works. but aim carefully, dont press into your eye!) closing your eyes at all times, imagine yourself washing all the oil off yourself, tell yourself to escape from this oil pit! YES. THINK of yourself being reborn!
STEP7:
RINSING of body. starting with a warmer than comfortable temperature, rinse off your body for 8 seconds. slowly decreasing the temperature of the water. if done correctly, you will realise that the water temp gauge of the tap will have reached the minimum. Fabian believes that reaching the end of the tap is like reaching the end of the healing process. COol water refreshes and awakens oneself. it awakes the inner being allowing the stress to run away with all the warm water.
STEP 8:
towel dry. dab yourself dry and not rub the towel against your body as if it were an abrasive and you’re a dirty pot. with it dab, tell yourself you are powdering on new life and positive energy. with every drop of water that comes off you, u are releasing the headache.
You are now ready to clothe yourself and resume daily activities.
This has been Fabian with headache remedy 1-0-1. i hope you have a more pleasant shower in the future. good bye.
