One of the other things that can affect how our skin looks and the wrinkles we have is stress.  You have probably seen someone who has come through a stressful experience like illness or the death of a loved one and they look years older.  All of this from the stress of the situation.  We all have stress in our lives.  Sometimes this is expected sometimes this is not. 

But when either way there are a few things we can do to help cope with the stress and not let it affect us or our skin as much.  First you need to get enough sleep.  I have mentioned this before.  Second, you need to learn how to relax and take a mental break.  You can do many things that will accomplish this.  You can talk a walk, get a pedicure, take a long lunch and eat slowly, do some yoga, close your eyes and meditate. 

Even if you take 10 minutes a day to do one or more of these things you can really help your stress level and therefore help your skin.  When you know you have some deadlines or multiple events coming up, ask for help.  Ask family and friends to assist you.  It might be hard, but your skin will thank you.
