Exploring the connection between stress, skin and the process of healing.
When they say grief hits in a myriad of ways, they – whoever they are – weren’t lying. Recently, my grandma passed away. It was sudden and took me and my family by complete surprise. Adjusting to this new life has been difficult and foreign.
One of the more peculiar ways my grief manifested was dry skin… it was as if all the hydration had been zapped out of my body Not only does grief completely turn your life upside down, but it also plays havoc with your outward appearance, too. The activation and prolonged experience of the fight or flight response can result in dull and dry skin, which is exactly what I experienced.“Lymphatic drainage massage, digestive enzymes and a robust intolerance test helped me finally heal my chronic gut issues”
Increased stress and cortisol production have been linked to barrier dysfunction, triggering dry, inflamed skin or exacerbating existing chronic skin conditions I also switched to thicker moisturisers – something that was alien to me, especially in the summer months, but my skin drank up Kiehl’s Super Multi-corrective Cream and nothing but the Weleda Skin Food worked for the dark cracks around my nose: it was restorative in all senses of the word.For an extra boost of hydration, I booked myself a facial via Treatwell: the Caudalie Vinosource Hydra facial, to be exact.
