This Is How Your Mind Can Mess With Your Skin
Why Do I Believe Calmer Mind, Calmer Skin?
I find it’s really hard for me to switch off sometimes. Instead of taking life one step at a time I have a habit of thinking about everything all at once — which can unsurprisingly be really overwhelming. Not only does this leave me feeling stressed, my skin also reacts badly.
In order to show you why I believe in a mind-skin connection, I’d like to take a closer look into the topics of mindfulness, happiness, confidence and stress. All of these topics are interlinked and often appear cyclically in our lives e.g. stress = bad skin = lack of confidence = stress = bad skin etc. and alternatively mindfulness = happiness = good skin = confidence = mindfulness and so on (I could literally be here forever repeating myself).
Changing the way we think and feel is unsurprisingly seen as a difficult task. It doesn’t have to be though. When thinking of ‘changing’ thoughts and feelings this seems like a near impossible task but when you think about ‘training’ your brain it seems much more manageable.
