5 Tips For Feeling Good About The Skin You're In

In a world where models are air-brushed and Instagram models look picture perfect, it can be hard to figure out the self-love concept and really pursue it. It takes a brave soul to decide they will love who they are before anyone else does. Finding it within yourself can be difficult, but there are a few productive practices you can pursue in order to feel good about the skin you're in.




Nutrition
Whether you believe it or not, nutrition plays a major role in the body's energy levels and ability to function. The human body is similar to a car in that you have to put the proper fuel in it for it to run at its optimal level. By taking time to give your body the right fuel you will be able to feel great and look great in no time!

Exercise
One of the best ways to fight fatigue and sluggish feelings involves working out. Exercise gets the endorphins flowing and these hormones have the power to anyone in a good mood. If you'd like to feel good in the skin you're in, consider getting a heart-pumping workout that leaves you sweaty at the end. Exercises like jogging, weight-lifting and basketball are all great choices. If you prefer to be outdoors, switch it up with exercises like roller skating or tennis. Staying active will keep your body in great shape. It'll also leave you feeling like a million bucks when it's time to put on that new outfit hanging in the closet.

Positive Messages
The human mind is a very powerful tool. If you believe you can do something, you'll do it. Once the mind is made up, the body has to follow suit. In this case, it's important to feed your mind positive messages of encouragement and hope. Remind yourself how amazing and resilient you are. Even if you don't believe it, listen to motivational messages until they really sit with you and you believe them. Listen to a positive motivational speaker every single day and your life will change.

Challenges
Challenge yourself to improve. If there's something you don't really like about yourself, don't be afraid to change it. If you don't like your job or the field of work you're in, consider going back to school and trying something else. If you feel as though you're tired of the way your varicose veins look, visit places such as The Sheen Vein Institute for assistance. If you don't like your hair color and style, book an appointment at one of the amazing salons in your area. Challenge yourself to change something you don't like so you can feel better about the skin you're in.

Community
Surround yourself with positive people who affirm and validate who you are. While it is important to be your own person and not rely on the compliments of others, it's still very crucial to make sure you are around people who support you and want to see you do well. It can make a major difference in how you feel about yourself.

These tips are all very important and can make an impact on the person you are and the person you become. Take it one day at a time and before long, you'll be so happy and comfortable expressing who you really are in your own skin.

Aspirin's greatest benefit is reducing cardiovascular events including heart attacks and strokes. According to the American Heart Assoc. virtually all women are at risk of heart disease and doctors should more strongly consider prescribing a daily aspirin for their female patients.

I Tried a Headache Balm and Ended Up with Rashes

I do have this habit of slathering pain balms whenever I have a headache. But never did I get a skin reaction or rashes from it. It so happened that I had an extremely severe headache a few months ago.  The pain was so unbearable that I gingerly reached out for a pain balm kept on my bedside table and kept on slathering it repeatedly all over the temples of my forehead. Next morning, after I woke up, I found that the skin on my forehead was peeling off and worse there were red rashes!  This was the first time in my life that I was getting rashes from applying a pain balm on my forehead !  I have never had any pain balm allergy or as such!  Side-effects due to application of a pain balm  was something I've never come across all these years! I usually use pain balms of reputed companies – my usual favourites are Tiger balm, Amrutanjan, Zandu balm and Sloan’s balm.  This time I had used Tiger balm. But why did it  give me rashes now, when I had used it...
