March's Health Tip - Skin is Alive
|
Last month's Health Tip addressed the importance of human contact and touch. The sense of touch is one of the bodies most important senses. This sense is mediated through our skin, our Health Tip topic this month. Skin is our bodies largest organ and one that is often taken for granted. Yet care for the health of our skin is vitally important.
In the past, the function of the skin was believed to be obvious and limited. Protection, temperature regulation and fluid loss prevention were seen as its main purpose. But recent studies are finding that the skin is a far more complex organism. |

Skin is alive, a living, breathing organ taking in oxygen, moisture, nutrients and discharging carbon dioxide, waste and toxins. Highly active in defending our immune system, the skin also plays a crucial role in our nervous and endocrine system. The skin is a biocreative organ processing and metabolising proteins, lipids and sensing molecules. An average adult's skin is composed of three hundred million cells. Understanding the essential function of our skin helps to ensure that we give it careful consideration. Our skin mirrors our overall health. A healthy person will radiate wellness through their appearance, most notably with clear, supple, glowing and resilient skin.

There are a few simple practices that can be followed to support and maintain healthy skin.

Quotes:

"...Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our Light, not our Darkness, that most frighten us...Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightening about shrinking so that other people won't feel unsure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within...As we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others..." |

Client Feedback:
"I have received many wonderful massage sessions from Jamie. Jamie has also provided on-site massage for some of our guests. I find her approachable, fun-loving, up to date and professional. I particularly appreciate her availability at the farmers/crafters market. As a B & B owner/operator, my day-timer is not my own. It is difficult to schedule things. The market venue allows me to receive a much needed massage on a last minute basis. Thank-you Jamie."
