FOOD AS SKIN CARE.  What our skin really craves is naturally occurring, food grade, unprocessed nourishment.  Most of it is in your fridge and pantry. The Gut-Brain-Skin Axis: Embryologically, our skin, gut, and nervous system all arise from the same tissue.  Therefore, when one is affected, the others  are affected, too.  You have probably heard of the Gut-Brain axis/connection, but our skin is connected as well.  Therefore, a more apt name is the Gut-Brain-Skin axis/connection. SKIN CARE AS GUT CARE:  Our gut is our inner skin Our skin and gut lining are two sides of the same coin:  Each have their own microbiome  Each is a boundary, and it’s important to keep these intact and integral  so as to allow the free flow in and out. Each houses part of our immune system. SKIN CARE AS NERVOUS SYSTEM CARE:  Our skin is our exposed/outer nervous system The skin is our largest sense organ and is the parent to all the other senses The main function of our nervous system is to inform us about our environment. Therefore, our skin, the boundary through which we interact with our environment, is our external nervous system. The more vital and vibrant our skin, the more resilient our nervous system, the more integral our gut, the more our body feels like our sanctuary, and the more connected we feel within ourselves and with our environment.
