There is a beauty in the sunrise and also in the sunset, wrote the famous Essayist A G Gardiner!
The age of fifty is supposed to be the youth of old age. Old age will come, when it has to come. Why invite it early? How’s that you already have wrinkles coupled with acne?
You know, you can build the super structure, add additional floors and galleries, only when the foundation is very strong. As for your health, you need to understand the body mechanism, very well. The inner strength of tissues and muscles, and purity of the blood will provide the glow to the outer covering of the body- that is your skin!
The skin derives the strength from within. It does constantly face the outside attacks to damage its luster, like pollutants, bitter cold and the hot sun and what not! The traditional cleansers and lotions, containing benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid, did their job, when you were young.
But today you are over aged, a respected senior citizen, but you too are entitled to live a wrinkle-free life! You have the capacity within you to look younger than most of the youngsters, who actually look more than their age, due to their wrong living!
How then you handle your acne and wrinkles? Obviously, you can’t handle your age. The natural aging process can never be reversed. But you can certainly take steps to rejuvenate your body mechanism, and be a youthful, old man.
Firstly, try to understand your acne. What type of acne it is? And when you have acne and wrinkles, do first things first. Treat acne first. Acne is an autoimmune disease. Wrinkle is not a disease as such. It is a happening on your face. Having acne means, you are thinking about acne, and thinking means, waste of energy. Your emotions are affected.
Give proper thought to your food habit. You digested all hard food, when your stomach was strong like a furnace. It is not so now. Give respect to its digesting capacity, and eat such types of foods that are easy to digest.
You have a beautiful community garden right in front of your house. How often you have visited it? Now budget your time accordingly, so that you make it a point to stroll there regularly at least for half an hour! The greenery and the quiet walking should change your mood for the better.
It is believed that about 70% of the immune system is located in your intestines. If this area is filled and blocked with waste, it is an open invitation to all types of diseases at the old age. Some of the wastes find easy route of leaving through the skin. This results in acne.
Physical exercises keep your intestines toned. Develop this golden habit without any further delay.
Watch your wrinkles, when you go as per the above mentioned schedule. Your acne has probably gone and some of the wrinkles are about to beat retreat!
