Do you want to start Face Yoga but aren’t sure what to practice or in what order? Don’t worry — Coach Mai Linh has designed a 7-day plan for beginners, with just 5–10 minutes each day, progressing from easy to challenging, focusing on different areas of the face. If you stick with it for 7 days, you will notice your skin feeling fresher and gradually get used to a daily care routine.
Why follow a plan instead of practicing randomly?
Just like gym workouts, your facial muscles need to be trained systematically and regularly. A clear plan helps you: not miss any areas, avoid incorrect practices, and most importantly — maintain the habit. After 20 weeks, research shows that facial contours can appear up to 3 years younger; but it all starts from the first week.
7-Day Face Yoga Plan for Beginners
| Day | Focus Area | Main Content | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Day 1 | Familiarization & Relaxation | Breathing, gentle massage of the entire face, warming up the muscles | 5 minutes |
| Day 2 | Forehead & Eye Corners | Smoothing the forehead, widening the eyes while keeping the forehead flat | 5–7 minutes |
| Day 3 | Cheeks & Cheekbones | Lifting the cheek muscles, fish face, puffing air in both cheeks | 5–7 minutes |
| Day 4 | Jawline & Double Chin | Kissing the ceiling, tucking the chin, pushing the jaw forward | 7 minutes |
| Day 5 | Mouth & Smile Lines | Making an “O” shape with the mouth, puffing air around the mouth | 5–7 minutes |
| Day 6 | Neck & Full Face | Engaging the jaw and neck, reviewing previously practiced areas | 7 minutes |
| Day 7 | Complete Routine | Combining everything + relaxation, finishing massage | 10 minutes |
Tips to Maintain the 7-Day Habit
- Set a specific time (e.g., in the morning after washing your face, or in the evening before bed).
- Ensure your skin and hands are clean, apply a little moisturizer for smooth gliding.
- Take a “before” photo on day 1 for comparison — it’s a great motivation.
- Perform movements slowly and with proper technique; quality over quantity.
