And this morning when I looked in the mirror, I realized the skin irritation on the right side of my face near my jaw line was completely gone. There's not even a trace of it! And I can't recall the last time, I ran my fingers across it so clearly it has been healing over these past weeks, maybe months. That one spot had refused to heal for years. I think it even predates my move to the south in 2018. Can stress affect the skin? I suppose.
This is just one more reminder that in the future I need to listen to my body a whole lot more. This past year has been really eye opening as I start to understand all the clues it was giving me over the last two decades. The chronic pain, the digestive issues, the struggle with weight gain, the lack of energy, and this skin irritation were all (not so subtle) clues from my body.
