7 HABITS TO ACHIEVE BEAUTIFUL, RADIANT, AND HEALTHY SKIN

Habit #1 - Stay fully hydrated with high-quality mineralized water. Most of us are dehydrated, yet too busy to remember to drink enough water throughout the day. Bodies are much like plants–they need hydration to work well. Dehydration can cause your skin to dry up and wrinkles to appear. Think of your body as a raisin that you would like to turn back into a plum, and start drinking more water daily!

Habit #2 - Give yourself a healthy glow by getting 15 minutes of sun on your face and body each day. This will help to keep your vitamin D levels up and help your skin to heal itself. 

Habit #3 - Get some daily exercise. Physical motion increases circulation. Circulation gets rid of accumulated toxins, and improves the health and tone of your skin. Our bodies were meant to move, and they do not do well when sedentary.

Habit #4 - Eat the foods your ancestors were eating 500 years ago. Such foods would have include bone broths, vegetables, fruits and fats. Yes, fats! Quality, natural fat is a necessary macro-nutrient! Omit food products that contain gluten, processed sugars and chemicals. Eat fermented foods like sauerkraut, pickles and kimchi. Eat organic fruit instead of candy and pastry. Don't eat anything that contains an ingredient that you can't understand. Better yet, stay away from processed foods altogether. 

Habit #5 - Don't feed allergies. The body often tries to get rid of toxic substances through the skin. Pimples, discoloration, and swelling can be caused by allergies and toxins. Foods that can cause allergies include processed grains of any kind, dairy products, eggs, nightshade vegetables, nuts and seeds, beans or legumes, processed sugars, trans fats and hydrogenated fats, and any manmade chemicals found in processed foods. Allergies tax your immune system and inhibit its ability to heal your body.

Habit#6 - Get enough sleep. This is probably one of the most important habits of all to maintain beautiful skin and good health. A body needs to recharge its physical batteries daily. During the process of sleeping, the systems in the body slow down and recuperate from the activity and stress that occurs during waking hours. It is best to sleep in a safe, dark place, away from any electronics, with plenty of fresh air. Surround yourself with clean, non-allergenic, organic materials that breathe (like cotton or wool), so that the body can rid itself of toxins during its time of rest. Purchasing a comfortable mattress, pillows, and high-quality sheets and covers are extremely viable investments. A person spends one-third of their life sleeping while detoxing and rejuvenating at the same time.

Habit #7 - Apply an effective moisturizer daily. This is a must if you ever expect to save your skin from the elements encountered in daily life. As you grow older, your skin has less of an ability to heal itself. It dries out faster and begins to wrinkle and droop. However, with a little help from a quality, natural moisturizer, the process of aging can be slowed down considerably. 

Action Plan: Take an assessment of your facial and body skin. Note where it gets dry and where  wrinkles are forming. Try washing your face with warm water and then applying Fresh Face Organix Rejuvenating Moisturizer, once in the morning and again at night. Try applying Dr. Cole’s Gourmet Body Butter to your body just after a shower or a bath. Note the difference it makes after one week, and then again after one month. 

Dr. Cole's Problem Skin Remedies: Use the Skin Repair Balm or the Skin Repair Cream on any part of your skin that is extra dry, swollen, scarred, burned, or itchy. The balm is the most powerful remedy, and the cream is perfect for the more sensitive areas of the face and hands.
