Looking after your body can be a pretty complicated thing to do. A lot of people might say that it's not, that it's incredibly simple and that you're just not putting in the right amount of effort. But when those people talk about your body, they're often only thinking about one particular element of it. When it comes to looking after yourself, there are actually three different things you should focus on: the outside, the inside, and the mind. These three things, on a very broad level, are what make up your entire body. There's no way you'll ever be able to function at full capacity if you're only looking after one, or even two, of these parts. 

So, here is a guide to make sure you're taking care of every part of your body.

The Outside
Simply put, this is everything that takes place on the surface. When people think about caring for this part of their body, they often get trapped in only ever thinking about appearances. But taking care of your skin, teeth and hair is about more than just making sure that they all look nice. Issues with your skin can be unpleasant and cause a lot of discomfort. Things like warts or skin tags are more than just cosmetic problems. Dealing with these kinds of things can be pricey but you should if you check out this blog post asking: does wart remover work on skin tags? You can find that there are ways to make dealing with those kinds of problems a whole lot more interesting. You should also make sure that you always have a fully stocked first aid kit in your home, with bandages, aeroburn gel, and band-aids to help you deal with the most common household injuries. Of course, if any injury is particularly severe, don't hesitate to go straight to the hospital.

The Inside
This is the part of your body that people most commonly mean when they talk about taking care of yourself. The inside of your body is what you can look after through your diet and lifestyle. Most of the time, outside of serious illness, if your body is feeling run down or low, it's because of those things. Make sure that you aren't overloading your diet with junk foods and, most importantly, make sure to stay hydrated. Dehydration is a major problem among many people. Simply by staying hydrated, you can improve your mood, your energy levels, your skin and even your figure. 

The Mind
This is the one that tends to get neglected. There's still a great deal of stigma around any problems someone might have with anxiety or depression. But the thing to remember is that your brain is an organ too. And just like any other part of the body, you need to take care of it. It's important to treat any issues your mind has with just as much care and attention as you would for physical problems. Take time to rest, don't over work yourself. Self-care is one of the most important things you can do in order to be a fully functioning, happy, and healthy individual. 

Of course, taking care of each of these parts of yourself will have positive effects on all of the others as well. The key is to treat them as parts of a greater whole. What is good for one is good for the others and, in the end, is good for you.
