This is a question from a viewer…

Since I moved to Asia at 17, I’ve been fascinated by the unique practices that many women here use to manage stress and anxiety, which also ties into their beauty routines

I want to share some valuable insights I’ve gained that can be effective

One significant difference I’ve noticed among many women in Asia who follow Traditional Chinese Medicine compared to their Western counterparts is not related to genetics but rather lifestyle choices

The good news? These practices are often simple and cost nothing

Let me break down the approach:

🔴 Here’s a key strategy that contributes to a youthful appearance:

⿡ 1. Avoiding ice-cold drinks 🥶⛔

This includes iced coffee and cold juices or smoothies

The reason? Ice-cold beverages can create stress on the body, which may accelerate aging

Instead, many prefer hot tea or warm water, which is gentler and more soothing

2. Steering clear of ice baths 🧊⛔

Though ice baths are trendy and often touted for their benefits, they can place significant stress on the body

While you might feel invigorated, the long-term effect can be the opposite

Opting for a warm shower or bath, especially before bed, can promote relaxation and better sleep

3. Avoiding cold food 🍧⛔

Similar to drinks, cold food can also contribute to stress in the body

Many Asian women prefer to eat warm meals, like soups, which can provide comfort and ease

About Kelly Prehn

Kelly's journey began unexpectedly when a Models 1 agent spotted her in Covent Garden during a ballet rehearsal. Despite landing a six-figure Japanese contract immediately, upon arrival in Tokyo she was deemed 'overweight', fired and sent back to London.

Her breakthrough came when Mr. Shu of Shu Uemura recognized her potential, launching her acclaimed career as a beauty and fashion model across Asia—from Japan and Korea to China and Singapore.

A leading cultivator and producer of cultural collaboration and exchange between East and West, Kelly leveraged her industry expertise and transitioned from modeling to sharing beauty insights as a columnist, becoming a highly recognized advocate for niche traditional wellness modalities. She was the first to bring numerous transformative practices to a wider audience. Her influence grows rapidly: 1.4 million books in print, tens of millions of women reached through her teachings on social media, she currently impacts 11 million women monthly—and growing.
