Beach in Ghana

First off the sand is good for your skin. It acts as a natural exfoliant and scrubs off dead skin.  This clears away acne and blackheads when the skin starts to breath. Listening to crashing waves can serve as a stress reliever. The soothing sounds lull you into a relaxed state which releases serotonin and dopamine. That’s why most machines to aid relaxation have ocean sounds.
