My hands, my skin beauty, my health

Today I want us to take a minute and appreciates our hands. With hands we do and achieve a lot. We make food and eat, touch, hold, console, praise, sometimes punish, and we also talk with our hands.

Think about this, how often do you shake hands with people around, friends and family?

Yes we hand shake often, we hold our spouses hands to hands.

We hold our little children by hands when we help them cross the roads/streets.

We hold our new born babies by our hands. New borns are fragile and love it when we tickle them with our hands fingers.

We make lovely food to feed our families and friend with our hands.

Sometimes we just grab food and feed ourselves with hands. Furthermore, we sometimes feed our toddlers by hands.

We love our skin, we bath our faces with hands. We spend the day working and sweating and then we touch our faces with those hands. Scratch here and there when it itching.

Hands are the most dirtiest part of our bodies. Research on hand hygiene made it clear, that human hands are carriers of multiple of germs (microorganisms).

When drive our cars, we collect germs, answering phone calls, typing on our smart phones and keyboards, public toilet flushing after use, door handles and paper work we do in our offices.

That way we collect and leave microorganisms. Touching our faces with those hands later and hand shaking others, touche our children and grab food often with such hands is apparent.

Awareness

It not easy to always wash our hands or use hands sanitary after shaking hands with your boss, it will be very disrespectful. But we need to be aware that hands are carriers of microorganisms that infect and diseases.

Transmission of germs from one person to another through hands is a daily activity. Motive, keep your hands clean and wash them often.

Before you touch your face think about your hands hygiene. Before tickling your toddlers thing about hands.

Teach your children at a younger age about hand hygiene and the appreciation of hands. My hands, my hygiene, my health, their health.

Thank you.
