ASHLEY CURTIS: Stress relief can
help a variety
of medical conditions
and help with the symptoms
of psoriasis as well.
Some of the more common ways
that you can relieve stress
are things like meditation,
regular exercise, and even
deep breathing.
There are studies that have
shown that meditating can
actually help with things
like itching, anxiety,
the stress that just goes along
with having psoriasis.
Deep breathing is a good way
to relieve stress.
It really creates a sense
of calmness and calms down
physical stress in your body.
And it's pretty easy to do.
Another thing that you could do
is regular exercise.
Regular exercise releases
endorphins, which are chemicals
in your brain
that just make you feel better.
And this overall can give you
a sense of relaxation
and help you cope with many
of the psoriasis symptoms.
