Hey ya'll. It's my second day here and I just wanted to pass along something that's helped me in the past.
I have gone to a few sweat lodges and sat in saunas and steam rooms and for some reason, the image of the sweat cleaning my pores was helpful to me. It also makes your skin nice and smooth and clean--something else that aided me in leaving my skin alone for awhile.
Plus the benefit of a sweat lodge is a place to pray and sometimes overcome your demons--an added bonus.
Remember not to stay in too long and not to leave before you are sweating profusely. Listen to your body--I think if we learn how to do that alone it will help a great deal in overcoming this.
