Re: gray hair, acne, fire element

["alvakorn" <alvakorn@...>]

I've had Acne on my back since I was a teen (and gray only recently 
when I reached my late 30's). A few years ago I improved my diet 
considerably and got away from most greasy food. Surprisingly this 
didn't seem to help the acne much. However last year I started 
taking yoga classes twice a week and noticed that the acne completely 
disappeared! Of course when I let the yoga slip, it came back again, 
but I will be going back to yoga in a week. This type of acne is 
caused by over-production of oil, and clogged pores. Does anyone 
experienced in "pore breathing" know if it has a positive effect on 
our "real pores"? I'm just wondering if once I start to work on pore 
breathing, if it is likely to improve my skin or if the effects are 
strictly mental. In regards to the elements, I haven't done a lot of 
work classifying traits with elements, but in general I think I am 
deficient in the fire element.
