The Upside of Vanity - 6 Things Your Mirror is Trying to Tell You

Make friends with your mirror. It has great information to share.

If anyone told you that looking in the mirror makes you vain, give them some side-eye and let them know that what you see in the mirror is simply a reflection of your health—and by paying attention, you can make simple changes to improve your chances of living a longer, healthier life.

Our bodies are simply made of billions of cells which have jobs to do. When they are not doing their job the way they were designed, we will often see outward signs long before we notice inner problems. This is because the human body is amazingly intelligent, and prioritizes our internal health over our external looks (skin, hair, nails).

This is good. It means, your body is working to keep you living long enough to make those little lifestyle tweaks that can improve your health before it's too late.

So, when you see things you don't like in the mirror: wrinkles, saggy skin, thinning hair, brittle nails it's just a warning sign that your body is not getting something it needs. Remember, the human body needs 90+ micro nutrients every single day to do all the amazing processes it does.

So, the upside of vanity?

Using that mirror to notice whether our skin is glowing ... or not ... our hair is thick, soft, shiny and bouncy ... or not ... and our nails are growing fast and strong ... we are noticing that we aren't taking care of our bodies as well as we should, or are doing a damn excellent job.
