Does your mind control your skin?

Have you noticed when you’re on holiday, eating a balanced diet or when you are happy, how good your skin is?

Stress is one of the biggest factors which contributes to bad skin. In a recent study, approximately 50% of people with acne reported an emotional trigger to their breakouts. 80% of those with eczema state that stress causes their eczema to be more troublesome.

There is a two-way communication between the brain and skin and so your skin reflect’s what you are feeling inside. Practices like mindfulness and meditation can actually have a huge transformative effect on overall skin condition. 

To improve your mind to body state..here are some tips-

-Drink plenty of water – hydrate your skin and flush out all of the toxins.

-Meditation- various studies have proven that breathing techniques or mediation have been used successfully in a variety of skin conditions such as acne, eczema and psoriasis. 

-Movement- Yoga/pilates is a great way to destress and relax.

-Eating a well-balanced diet can boost your mood and your skin.

I hope that this helps some of you!
