years of unexpressed emotions don't just weigh down your mind they physically alter your appearance think about someone who holds in their emotions all the time they keep a straight face never allowing themselves to fully laugh cry or speak their truth over time this emotional suppression takes a toll stress hormones like cortisol rise accelerating aging by damaging skin elasticity draining energy and even weakening the immune system these are the people who look older than they are not because of genetics but because of the emotional weight they refuse to release now look at those who age gracefully

who look younger than their years what do they have in common they allow themselves to feel when they're happy they don't hold back their laughter when they're sad they don't pretend to be fine they cry they talk they release they are emotionally honest and this honesty keeps them youthful their faces don't carry the tension of years of unspoken words or suppressed pain instead they remain expressive vibrant and full of life it's no surprise that cultures that encourage open emotional expression tend to have people who appear more youthful and energetic emotional release is a natural anti-aging
