It is understandable that there will not always be good and positive days. But spoiler alert! We’ve got you some hacks, tips, and tricks to combat the life stressors that may cause a negative effect on your skin. Upon knowing that a positive outlook in your life contributes much to your overall well-being, did you just get inspired to inject more positivity into your life? Here are simple easy habits you can establish to have a more positive viewpoint.

 Learn to express things out

Whether verbal or written, express what is in your mind as it helps you maintain a focused mind. Some of your days may be bombarded with confusion and questions, and they somehow make it hard for you to make sense of your feelings.

Learn to express things. Try putting your thoughts and feelings on paper.  Write down your thoughts, your plans, and your goals – document everything. There is no right or wrong way in journaling – you can be creative in expressing your thoughts, or just plain simple – all up to you.  Studies have proven that journaling plays an important role in one’s well-being.

Learn to connect

Not just with others. But with yourself. Life is not meant to be lived alone. Relate to others, spend quality time with the people who matter to you, share your stories, and listen to their own. Release forgiveness as it frees your unwanted emotions as well. Avoid involving yourself in a situation that would cost you your emotional welfare. Living your life with a purpose means having to understand what’s in it for you and what’s in it for others. Your shared values and beliefs could make you achieve greater things and a more fulfilling life.

Think happy thoughts

“Simply by changing your habitual vocabulary – the words you consistently use to describe the emotions in your life – you can instantly change how you think, feel and how you live”, Tonny Robbins.  You are what you feed your mind. The power of affirmation, they say.

Instead of dwelling too much on the negative adjectives in describing your emotions in your day-to-day lives replace them with more positive terms such as joy, happiness, or delight you will be surprised that you are already making happiness a regular habit.

Breathe in. Destress your skin.

 According to the experts, the chemicals that our body releases during times of stress can cause inflammation or even make skin conditions worse and even more sensitive. That primarily is the reason why the Australian Actress and Producer, Cate Blanchett put so much emphasis on destressing every now and then to reveal healthy glowing skin.
