The skin
The skin is a reflection of what happens inside the body. Their problems may be warning of some internal, physical or mental imbalance, which should be addressed.
It embodies our identity, makes us unique, separates us from the environment and, at the same time, through it we make contact with what surrounds us, we are part of the world and the universe.
Its functions
The skin is essential for controlling body temperature and regulates water through sweating. Bacteria live on the skin that help the body defend itself from others that can be harmful.
Another function of the skin is to protect the body against harmful solar radiation, to which it adapts by pigmenting. At the same time it takes advantage of all the benefits of the sun, helping to eliminate toxic substances through perspiration.
The skin is also a sensory center. Through touch, it selects what is good and pleasant for us, and rejects what hurts us through pain or itching.
The skin is a reflection of the interior
Through stimuli based on pressure, heat or punctures, help regulate energy and thus correct internal imbalances.
Liver problems can give it a yellowish tone, while red spots that do not disappear on pressure, with fever and headache, can indicate meningitis. If it appears dry and pale it may be kidney problems. Red spots or bruises indicate clotting disorders.
But in aggressions to the skin, the connection is not only physical; it can also be emotional.
Re-educating the skin is a way to increase health and prolong life
The more its renewal is favored by causing the dead epidermal layers to fall through cleaning practices, the more it activates the formation of new skin.
Purification of the body is largely a function of the skin. For this reason, in childhood and youth, skin diseases - rashes, chicken pox, rash, hives, acne ... - protect life before unnatural habits nullify or delay its ability to purify.
