Many women struggle with skin problems, or even just “less than perfect” skin. Here are some tips to optimize your skins health, appearance and age resisting ability.
Your skin, hair, and nails are indicators of your overall health and well-being, and if you’ve been struggling with eczema, acne, dry skin, or rosacea, take a close look at your habits. Getting healthy doesn’t have to be hard, and you can develop some good head-to-toe health strategies that will be beneficial for your gut, give you back your energy, and repair your skin for a natural glow. Here are a few simple tips you can easily add to your daily routine for better health.
Get to Know Your Microbiome
The first step in setting healthy habits is getting to know your microbiome. Microscopic organisms called microbes live inside your body, and trillions of these microbes call your gut home. Having a healthy gut not only helps you digest food, but it’s also important for immune system function and impacts your emotions. Some microbes keep you healthy and strong, but others are very harmful. Each person has a different microbiome, based on genetics, diet, and external factors such as air quality or toxins. Having a healthy gut is all about learning about your ideal microbiome and how to maintain it.
Healthy Diet
To enjoy great head-to-toe health, start by developing a healthy diet for a healthy microbiome. For example, keep healthy snacks like fruits and nuts in the house, and avoid buying chips or pop when you’re at the grocery store. Remove the temptation to eat sugary, highly processed foods, and avoid empty carbs to unclog your pores and give you healthy skin and shiny hair. Plan your grocery shopping carefully and buy the right foods for a healthy diet. Eating whole foods like grains, fruits, and vegetables can effortlessly become part of your daily routine to improve your health, and lead to glowing skin.
Exercise More
You can easily incorporate exercise into your daily routine. What’s more, you don’t have to go to the gym every day to be more active. Choose something you enjoy, and don’t make it complicated. Even a simple 30-minute walk will have a big impact on your overall health and wellbeing. Go for a hike, swim during your lunch break, hop on your bike, or take the stairs instead of the elevator. Not only will exercise make you feel better, but you’ll also have more energy, improved gut health, and healthier skin, nails, and hair.
Sleep Soundly
Sleep is critical to your health and your looks, and it affects your skin more than you realize. Getting enough beauty sleep isn’t just a myth, and sleep has a lot of health benefits. Sleeping soundly will reduce the bags under your eyes, repair damage to the skin from UV rays, and lessen wrinkles. Doctors recommend that you sleep between seven to nine hours each night for all the benefits of deep sleep.
Relax Your Mind
Having a healthy body is hard to do if you don’t have a healthy mind. Look after your mental health, and learn to manage stress, cope with negative emotions. Additionally, find a healthy balance in your inner dialogue. Practice deep breathing exercises or meditation to calm your mind. Meditation also lowers your heart rate and reduces stress. Practice self-care and take a few minutes every day to do something that makes you calm and relaxed like reading, journaling, or taking a bubble bath. Make your home a haven for positive thoughts and energy by removing clutter, dusting and vacuuming, and opening blinds and curtains to let in natural light. An ultrasonic diffuser and essential oils from Australiana Botanicals can promote relaxation and revitalize your skin as well.
A Healthy Body Produces Healthy Skin
Having healthy skin, hair, and nails starts with a healthy body. After you’ve learned about your microbiome and how to eat for your gut, you can incorporate these healthy tips into your daily life, and exercise efficiently, sleep soundly, and learn to relax. Developing these head-to-toe strategies is easy, and you’ll soon see and feel the changes in your skin, hair, and nails.
New discoveries in the world of skin care have shown that skin wants and needs topical nutrition as well. Just like any other organ your skin needs vitamins, minerals and antioxidants - on the outside as well as inside - to look and feel its best. And to ward off those destructive free radicals that create oxidative stress, a major factor in aging.
