Tips de Higiene Personal para un Ambiente Saludable

Varias personas dan cuenta de la utilidad de los siguientes tips de higiene personal: han hecho sus vidas más felices, disfrutan más la compañía, y sus relaciones personales y profesionales han mejorado significativamente.

Las personas nos preguntan por tips de higiene personal y aquí queremos compartir algunos que pueden ser útiles. Entendemos que nadie quiere escuchar que no huele bien, por lo que los invitamos a que comprendan que estos tips no son para frustarlos, y que por el contrario, los facilitamos con amor y bondad esperando que ayuden a hacer al mundo un poco más feliz. Varias personas dan cuenta de su utilidad: han hecho sus vidas más felices, disfrutan más la compañía, y sus relaciones personales y profesionales han mejorado significativamente. Aquí van:
  • Asegúrense de que su ropa esté recientemente lavada cuando la usen.
  • Báñense con jabón, shampoo y acondicionador que tengan buen olor.
  • Usen desodorante con buen aroma después del baño. (Hombres: Old Spice Leyenda Épica es vendido en Colombia y es una buena opción de desodorante).
  • Después de cada comida, usen seda dental, cepillen sus dientes, y utilicen enjuague bucal. (Hombres y Mujeres: Listerine Cool Mint es vendido en Colombia y es una buena opción de enjuague bucal).
  • Traigan consigo un kit de higiene personal que incluya desodorante, seda dental, crema dental y enjuague bucal. En Colombia, es perfectamente normal aplicar desodorante, lavar sus dientes y usar enjuague bucal en baños públicos. Sólo sean considerados con los demás, y dejen el espacio tan o más limpio que como lo encontraron, incluido el sanitario y los espejos.
  • Traigan una camisa adicional y/o demás prendas necesarias para clases, especialmente para aquellas que duren más de una hora, así como para salir a bailar socialmente. Esto puede ser especialmente útil si están acomodándose al clima de Colombia o si sudan mucho. Es recomendable llevar bolsas resistentes al sudor, como las de plástico, para guardar la ropa ya usada durante las clases, y meter éstas dentro de tu bolso personal.
  • Consideren depilar su cuerpo al menos una vez al mes. Sí, es normal, especialmente en países latinos, revomer el vello de algunas partes del cuerpo, no sólo de la cabeza. Puede hacerse manualmente, usando una máquina de afeitar, o en un spa o lugar profesional. (Hombres y Mujeres: no olviden que mientras más se depilen, más necesario es el uso de protector solar para la piel).
  • Si es común que suden, consideren usar camisas o ropa diseñada para repeler el sudor y no para absorberlo (como ropa Dri-FIT). La tecnología Dri-FIT usa poliéster para ayudar a mantenernos secos. Básicamente, repele el sudor. Mientras que la ropa elaborada con algodón y otros materiales, puede absorber el sudor y tornarse húmeda e incómoda durante la actividad física.
  • Consideren traer una pequeña y limpia toalla personal para secar su frente, cuello y otras partes del cuerpo que pueden estar en contacto con los demás. Una toalla de mano usada debería, por supuesto, ser guardada en su cuerpo, (por ejemplo, algunas personas cuelgan su toalla de su cinturón o similares), o en una bolsa resistente al sudor dentro de tu bolso personal, como ya lo recomendamos para la ropa usada.
  • Si ya realizaste todo lo anterior, y has estado por fuera durante el día (sudando, comiendo, etc.), por favor planea repetir estos pasos cuantas veces sea necesario antes de tomar una clase o salir a bailar socialmente.

Personal Hygiene Tips for a Healthy Environment

Many people tell us that the following personal hygiene tips for a healthy environment have made their lives happier, that people enjoy their company more, and that their relationships, personal and professional, have improved significantly.

People ask us for personal hygiene tips. Here are some tips that may be helpful. We understand that nobody likes to hear that they don't smell good. Please understand that these tips are never to frustrate you. We share these tips with you with love and kindness and hope they help make the world a little bit happier. Many people tell us that the following tips have made their lives happier, that people enjoy their company more, and that their relationships, personal and professional, have improved significantly.
  • Make sure all clothing is freshly washed and being worn for the first time after washing.
  • Shower with great smelling soap or body wash, shampoo, and conditioner.
  • When showering, shampoo your hair with your favorite shampoo and conditioner, and wash your entire body with your favorite soap or body wash.
  • Use great smelling deodorant after showering (Guys: Old Spice Leyenda Épica is sold in Colombia and is one good option for deodorant).
  • After every meal, use dental floss, brush teeth, and gargle with mouth wash (Guys and Girls: Listerine Cool Mint is sold in Colombia and is one good option for mouth wash).
  • Bring a personal hygiene kit with you, including deodorant, dental floss, toothpaste, and mouth wash. In Colombia, it is perfectly normal to apply deodorant, floss and brush your teeth, use mouth wash, etc. in a public restroom. Just be considerate of others and leave the space, including sinks and mirrors, as clean or cleaner than you found them.
  • Bring a change of shirt and/or other clothing as necessary for classes, especially classes longer than one hour, and for going out social dancing. This may be especially helpful if you are getting acclimated to Colombian weather and/or sweat a lot. If you change your shirt and/or other clothing during or between classes and/or when out for social dancing, please have a sweat resistant bag (e.g., plastic bag) on hand to put your sweaty clothing in, place your sweaty clothing in your plastic bag, and store your plastic bag in your personal bag.
  • Consider grooming your body at least once a month. Yes, it is normal, especially in Latin countries, to trim or remove your body hair on your entire body, not just your head. One key to reducing and eliminating body odor is trimming or removing hair on your arms, legs, arm pits, pelvic region, etc. You can trim body hair personally using an electric body groomer and/or professionally, such as at a professional spa in your area (Guys and Girls: should you wish to purchase an electric body groomer, which we recommend, the Wahl brand offers some generally higher quality options). Don't forget that the more you trim, the more it may be necessary to use sunblock to avoid sun damage to your skin.
  • If it's likely you will sweat, consider wearing a shirt and/or other clothing that is designed to repel, not absorb sweat (e.g., Dri-FIT clothing). Dri-FIT technology uses polyester fabric designed to help keep you dry. It basically repels sweat, while clothing made of purely cotton and other matierals may absorb sweat and become wet and unpleasant during fitness activity.
  • Consider bringing a small, freshly cleaned personal hand towel to dry your forehead, neck and other parts of your body that may come into contact with others. A used hand towel should of course be stored on your body (e.g., some people hang a hand towel from their belt or similar) or in a sweat resistant bag inside your personal bag, as suggested for already used, sweaty clothing.
  • If you already did all of the above and have been out and about for the day (sweating, eating, etc.), please plan ahead to repeat these steps as necessary before taking a class and/or going out social dancing.
