Five suggestions to improve your skin
After reviewing some common symptoms and the conflicts that can cause them, let’s look at how we can improve the health of our skin by following 5 very simple suggestions every day.
Our skin needs attention and care for reasons other than aesthetic ones. Keeping the skin strong and healthy will help reduce the symptoms that may arise when the conflict is active.
Cheer up by learning to manage stress
The health of the brain and gut is directly correlated to the condition of the skin.
It is a point where the imbalances of life events become apparent, where you stop interacting with others because it is intolerable and at that point, you simultaneously experience the intolerable and disconnection.
Learn that skin contact has an anti-stress effect and induces a state of calm in the nervous system, meaning that interventions involving skin contact directly defuse conflict or operate to lessen its intensity.
Rolling on the ground or sand covered with a towel, rolling and unrolling, exposure to the sun, caresses, sensory activation with objects, contact with objects of various temperatures, movement of the joints and their skin and any activity involving physical contact.
The skin slows down the action of the central axis of stress, decreases the secretion of cortisol and boosts the secretion of serotonin (also linked to the intestine).
Avoid recurrent disputes
Due to the exposure to the disease, suffering or humiliation associated with the image often appears. Here, the first mental distortion in the treatment of the disease is to feel guilty for what is “seen” and unfavorable.
It is critical to identify the core conflict of guilt and alter any related beliefs.
Remembering that epidermal disorders emerge once the separation is healed and that patients must be exercised during the time of tissue repair is another interesting idea.
Keep in mind also that different times of the year cause the skin to absorb more moisture or become drier. Observe this! Intimate bonding, so important in people who feel separate, can be felt by paying attention to what she conveys.
It will set the tone that requires our attention to boost its hydration or moisturization based on its texture, color and overall appearance. Also, increase your intake of fruits and vegetables according to the season.
Keep your skin hydrated and nourished
The main goal of skin hydration is to moisturize your skin from the inside out. In addition, topical skin hydration with light lotions without parabens and chemicals, coconut oil, almond oil and olive oil can be considered as a method to provide moisture.
You can feel the touch even when nothing is applied topically.
Water provides us with minerals that help cleanse the body, remove impurities and moisturize the skin. The skin becomes less elastic and feels rough if the outermost layer of the epidermis does not have enough water.
Despite this relationship, the Mayo Clinic in the United States points out that no evidence conclusively shows that increasing water intake affects hydration or the appearance of the skin.
On the other hand, having healthy skin is significantly influenced by the gut. The small intestine is sensitive to all the things in life that we find repugnant. What cannot be endured, tolerated, or endured happens to us and we live badly.
It feels as if the stomach is disturbed and this throws the stress axis out of balance, which, as we saw earlier, has a significant effect on overall health and the skin in particular.
Comprehensive nutrition is a factor that significantly improves skin health; diet directly affects all health, not just skin health.
The diet should include dishes full of the color offered by vegetables and fruits, complemented with proteins and diverse elements such as carbohydrates, vegetable oils, dairy products, seeds, etc. This is in addition to sufficient hydration.
The secret is to pay attention to your body and let it tell you what nutrients it needs to perform at its best. Healthy, radiant, hydrated, silky and supple skin radiates from a well-nourished body.
Get in tune with your skin and take care of it
Get to know your skin better by reconnecting with it. Make every shower a pleasurable encounter with your skin by washing it gently and massaging each area after applying a moisturizing cream or lotion.
Strive to develop a closer relationship with your skin by caring for it, embracing it and embracing yourself through it.
Both men and women confess that they do not wash their faces before nighttime (54%). Before retiring to bed, it is important to clean the face of the dust accumulated during the day and, above all, to establish a last intimate physical contact that induces sweet dreams.
It is advisable to use mild soap to wash the skin. Choose one that is as natural as possible, free of toxic substances and scented with the essential oil of your choice; in addition to washing, sanitizing and moisturizing your skin, it will leave it smelling fresh. Avoid using exfoliants that only irritate your skin, such as sugar or fine-grained scrubs.
Be mindful of your feet. This part of the body, which supports us most of the day, has a different consistency and needs special care to avoid flaking and thickening.
Applying a moisturizing cream at night is essential, as well as wearing cotton socks without seams and not too tight.
Avoid excessive sun exposure
Despite many criticisms, the sun is good for the skin and body in general. Among them:
Stimulating the healing of certain lesions helps in the prevention and control of acne. In addition to increasing the number of white blood cells (lymphocytes and neutrophils), it reduces cholesterol by metabolizing it.
It contributes to the production of vitamin D in our body, necessary for the mineralization of bones and teeth. It favors the production of serotonin, which is related to happiness.
Connecting with your skin through meditation
To put into practice the above, start by recognizing your skin as a component of your being and give it its rightful place with the meditation I have prepared for you. I advise you to do it in a place with no background noise or other distractions, so embrace it!
