 According to science, hormones and our emotions have a strong influence on our skin. When nervous or agitated, the skin can undergo major physiological changes, including increased water loss, erythema, and an increase in sebum production. Stress causes the release of certain chemicals in our bodies (such as cortisol), which disrupt other hormones and increase sebum production, resulting in severe breakouts. Furthermore, it aggravates skin diseases such as eczema, causes hair loss, and encourages the growth of under-eye bags. The only approach to avoid this is to reduce stress and maintain a healthy mind. 

MIND THE MIND 

It is challenging to maintain or choose a healthy lifestyle to treat your skin issues when you are emotionally worried. Your skin will undoubtedly suffer if you aren't getting enough food to consume or enough sleep. Stress and anxiety impair your capacity for time management and environmental organization, which leads to stress eating that deteriorates the condition of your skin. Changes in the skin's appearance might be a sign of a certain skin condition. As a result, the skin can also be a reflection of our physical health in addition to our emotional health. Even while we may spend a lot of money on keeping our skin looking beautiful, sometimes we don't always pay attention to the more subtle conversations that our skin is attempting to have with us. Our skin serves as our first line of defence against the outside world and plays a crucial role in our sense of self-worth and mental health. We can therefore conclude that a healthy mind is essential for a healthy body since it serves as a reflection of our general health and well-being. 

While reducing stress levels should theoretically help to alleviate skin damage, there is limited data on the effectiveness of stress-reduction interventions. Meditation appears to lessen total catecholamine levels in persons who practise it on a daily basis. Meditation and relaxation practises have also been proved to aid with psoriasis. A healthy lifestyle, including a well-balanced diet and physical activity including sports, dance activities etc., may also assist to control stress hormones in the body, which should benefit skin and hair.
