Sweat gives you glowing skin.

Sweating helps unclog and open pores, which can help blemish-prone skin. You’ll maximize this benefit by pouring very hot water into a ceramic bowl, and creating your own homemade ‘facial sauna’.  Place your head above the steam, and cover your head and the bowl with a towel. (With winter on its way, take a handful of herbs, like chamomile, rose petals, or marshmallow root and toss them in the water.) Steam for 3 to 8 minutes and stop at any sign of overheating or discomfort. Follow with an all-botanical clay mask, which will take out all the impurities of your open pores.

Sweat helps heal wounds.
