Move over for a sec PSL's, autumn anxiety is in the house.

Are you feeling some anxiety around the changing of seasons? 

You're not alone. It turns out that many of us struggle with pre-autumn anxiety.

Have you ever noticed a direct connection between your mental state and the health of your skin? Or your diet and your skin?

Our skin is often an outward clue to what is happening in our body and has a cyclical effect; our wellbeing impacts our skin and our skin impacts our wellbeing. The pain, anxiety, insecurity and frustration that comes with changes to our skin can be really damaging to our mental health and our mental health can impact the changes that we see on our skin.

This episode provides insight on...
