Your organ The lung controls, according to Chinese medicine, the condition of the skin, as the skin is the first barrier between the external environment and the internal. And is part of our defense energy. Emotions that affect the lung energy phase are unprocessed sadness. That is, if you have lost a relative, divorced or gone through something difficult, which you have not processed, can create an imbalance in the energy of the lungs. The skin gossips about the state of emotions. Stress can also negatively affect the skin by becoming dry and sensitive, causing rashes, exacerbating acne, eczema and psoriasis.
5 things you can do to get your mind on track.
Deep breathing
Focus on deep breathing, counting to 3 as you inhale and counting to 6 as you exhale, through your nose. When organs get the oxygen they need, it affects the skin positively. Watch the breathing exercise that calms down with Jason Millne below.
Positive thoughts
Try to focus on what you have control over. What you can't control, there's no point putting your energy into it. You choose how to react to your feelings, don't let your feelings control you/your thoughts.
Throw away the martyr´s crown
A good motto is: You're not what happened to you, but what you choose to become. // Carl Jung
Seek help
If you have a hard time getting over something that makes you sad. Don't dwell on sad thoughts for too long, it drains your defense energy and can make you more susceptible to illness.
Laugh and enjoy more
Laughter and enjoyment release the happiness hormone oxytocin. When we enjoy or laugh, the "happiness hormone" oxytocin is secreted, which is formed in the pituitary gland and is also a neurotransmitter (a substance that transmits impulses between nerve cells). It enhances the feeling of well-being and lowers the stress level. Remember - a happy person is the most beautiful thing there is! The world's best beauty hack!
