Product Description Women and men alike can reclaim their face with The Yoga Facelift, an exercise, energetics, and meditation program specifically designed by Marie-Veronique Nadeau for the most prominent feature of the body. We are inundated with exercise programs to tone abs, biceps, triceps, and insteps, but none to exercise and maintain the most hardworking set of muscles in our entire body, the face! Nadeau has devised a holistic method for ridding the face of frown lines, reducing extra chins, and eradicating chicken neck. Her book is filled with useful charts, instructive photographs, and simple and natural exercises that readers can do in just five or ten minutes every day while waiting in traffic, talking on the phone, or working in front of the computer, all the while taking years off their face. Forget BOTOX. Don't even think of invasive and potentially dangerous plastic surgeries. Ditch the collagen. And enter the stress-free, effective world of Nadeau's restorative yoga therapy. The Yoga Facelift will enhance inner and outer beauty and help you to put your best face forward! *Gorgeous black-and-white photographs accompany each yoga pose.

Needs better instruction June 25, 2007 31 out of 31 found this review helpful
Although the book has good information and intentions, which is what I mainly give my stars for, I find that the instructions and photos are wanting in many places. For a little example, one exercise says 'smile without smiling' and shows photos of a woman with a rather blank staring expression; I really could not 'get' what exactly to do there or how it should feel. In going through the book I found myself unsure if I was doing things correctly and I really think that some more detailed descriptions and additional photos (maybe with arrows indicating movement on them or something) would help.
Really, I am not a dummy when it comes to this sort of thing and understanding movement, but I am disappointed and feel this book leaves room for improvement. It actually would be better overall as a book with an instructional DVD since seeing the motion all the way through would be a huge help.
Unimpressed July 31, 2007 29 out of 30 found this review helpful
Calgal's reviews says it all. I am glad I'm not the only one. I much prefer the Facercise book. I cannot believe the writer encourages headstand - a potentially dangerous exercise which I have never even tried, and I've been practicing yoga for about 12 years now. Granted, she shows a modification, but still encourages full headstand. Also, the pushing of her creams seems to my somewhat sceptical eye to be the main raison d'etre of the book. And I say this because there aren't many exercises here in the first place. Plus, what there is is poorly explained. Yes, I definitely prefer Facercise
Yoga and Natural Beauty Come Full Circle April 5, 2007 14 out of 17 found this review helpful
As an avid yoga enthusiast, I was very interested in "The Yoga Facelift" when a friend gave me a copy. The exercises are presented in a simple, straightforward manner and I don't need to go to a studio to do them. My problem was I had falling cheeks and now they are as firm as apples! The author also has a great philosophy on natural beauty and how we can best take care of ourselves. I now have my mom doing the exercises and she is noticing results.
The lift everyone needs to get through the day! April 2, 2007 12 out of 15 found this review helpful
Ladies and gents, the Yoga Facelift is an effective and invigorating way to stave off the effects of aging, daily. I've had lines on my forehead as long as I've had a forehead and only after reading the Yoga Facelift did I realize how much (and what kinds of) scowling I was doing. In a few minutes a day I can correct what I've caused over my lifetime and am enjoying a happier disposition because of it.
There's rumor that a DVD is coming out (on her yoga facelift site) - now that would be fantastic! In the meantime, I'll practice with the book. A few minutes of Yoga Facelift sprinkled throughout the day and I'm a happy clam.
Chins up! April 4, 2007 12 out of 15 found this review helpful
This book gives us all an easy and effective way to address signs of aging in our faces. I had a chin issue (notice I said had), and after about two weeks of doing the chin exercises, I notice a big difference. I do them whenever I think about it; in the car, the elevator, watching a movie. This book is highly recommended. I also ordered her Serumdipity (Marie-Veronique Skin Therapy) for the face massage and some other products and my skin is truly glowing! Her book and skin care products are as close to the fountain of youth as you can get without surgery!
