The times are strange. We began the year raging into this new decade with an untamable pace, adding quite a bit of stress, we might add. Three months into 2020 and we find ourselves cooped up inside our home, again, with elevated levels of stress. The fact remains, ones mental wellness directly impacts their physical being. As a result, this mental unrest will take a toll on your body, inside and out. While pale skin, outbreaks, and hair fall are some of the first and most visible problems you may face with, the problem goes much deeper.

That said, let this pause act as that much-needed stress buster. Taking care of yourself at this time and investing in your physical well-being will significantly shape how you feel. Dr Simal Soin, founder of AAYNA clinic, says, Under these exceptional circumstances, it is easy to slip into despair and depression because of a lack of routine. Remaining healthy is of topmost priority, and this is the time to develop a self-care regime.

Soin adds, Having a good skin and hair care routine can boost your self-confidence, apart from helping you to productively utilise your time. In fact, this is the ideal time to try all those DIY home remedies that could otherwise never be a part of your routine because of your busy schedule. As these efforts give you refreshing, supple skin, and your precious mane truly becomes healthy and gorgeous, you will naturally feel positive and happy about taking the time out for yourself.
