In the News: The Science of STRESS

Filed Under Physical Healing

March 28, 2008 — Dermatologists report that stress can cause many skin-related problems.  These include hair falling out, acne break outs, etc.  Once these stress effects manifest, their appearance can cause even more anxiety.

How does stress affect the skin?  Dermatologists have found that, when you’re stressed out, your body releases a hormone called cortisol.  Increased cortisol levels, in turn, increases oil production, which can cause acne eruptions … even if you have never had acne before!

What can you do to counter these effects?

To counter these effects, it is important that you reduce the amount of stress in your life.  Some practical ways to do so include:
1)  Get a good night’s sleep;
2)  Pay attention to breathing deeply and slowly;
3)  Get regular exercise
