To control the body and to reduce stress one try performing actions like going for a walk and doing yoga and meditation everyday.

Sleep

It is always recommended that you must follow the idiom early to bed is early to rise. This is an important practice since sleep is as essential for the body and skin as breathing is. Your energy will be all dried up and you will be feeling sleepy and tired if you don’t get proper sleep. And not just the hours of sleep but the right time to sleep must also be considered.

Pimples/acne/Mukhdoshika:

Acne is an all too common yet unpredictable skin problem. Vitiation of Kapha Dosha, Vata Dosha and Rakta Dhatu lead to development of Mukhadushika. Acne is a common skin condition that develops pimples on the face, forehead, chest, shoulders, and upper back, among other places. Genetics, changing hormone levels, stress, excessive humidity, and the use of oily or greasy personal care products, contribute in formation of acne. Acne and acne scars are most frequent among teens, although it may strike anybody at any age. “Yauvana pidika” is the term for acne in Ayurveda. The vitiation of Kapha, Vata, and Rakta causes the condition Yauvana pidika. One of the causative factors has been identified as Swabhava (natural status). Though Shukra pradurbhava (manifestation of Shukra Dhatu) occurs during the Taruna avastha (adolescent phase), Sharangadhara mentions Vaktre Snigdhata (unctuousness on the face) and Pidika (boil) development on the face as Mala (waste product) of Shukra Dhatu. As a result, the onset of acne and acne scars at this age is expected.
