If you live in a climate
that requires indoor heating in the winter, chances are you are
in familiar with dry skin. For some dry skin is seasonal, for others
it's an everyday concern. Chlorinated water, stress, diet, artificial
fragrances, climate, natural aging and hormonal cycles, air pollution,
genetics; all these and more may contribute to dry skin. Remember:
your skin is your largest organ and the interface between your inner
and outer environments. Stress, whether environmental, mental, emotional,
spirtual or physical, all put pressure on our overall immunological
responses and health balance. For many, the first place this stress
will manifest is with their skin. Your dry skin may be a barometer
to your inner and outer influences.
