Face Mapping

 

So, have you ever head of face mapping? Practitioners of Oriental Medicine have been using face mapping as a way of determining what your body is trying to tell you via where you break out on your face. My older brother has his PhD in Oriental Medicine and studied in Beijing, China for three years and knows his crap about this. One of the first things he said to me when he got back from China was “you need to eat slower, your digestion has been out of whack.” I was trying to figure out how the hell he knew that I had been doing not so hot in the digestion front and he told me my face told him. When you break out in certain zones on your face, it’s the body’s way of showing what you need to work on. Beautiful insides are beautiful outsides. So what are your break outs telling you about your body?

K, I got EVERYTHING about this post off of http://www.skinacea.com/acne/acne-face-map.html#.UMlEwIPLRIE because I am too lazy to type it all out, hear me bro? So check ‘em out if you like. You also can find many different versions for different areas. This one I found is the closest to what my brother told me, and I believe what he says since he has the thousands of dollars in medical school bills.
