Do you ever notice how some products say this will make your skin or hair look healthy? Looking healthy doesn’t always mean being healthy. It almost seems these days we are taught to apply layers and filters to pamper us into looking like we are indeed in good health when in reality it is actually far from the truth. We can ignore the issues as long as we are able to smear a mask on top and hide the ugly reality.
When I was younger I did not understand why my grandmother was always worried about the cold or wind. She always said watch out or you will have issues when you get older. No one listens at the young age as our bodies are capable of fixing the damage a lot better then. We still suffer the damage though and when we get older our bodies lose a lot of that capability to take care of it.
We are not invincible. Issues arise at some point for all and it is really sad to witness how some give up completely when it happens to them. Saying someday they will work with it. However sometimes that someday never arrives for them as they slowly let go of themselves while munching on the very same poison that is killing them.
Of course it is not just our meatsack bodies that determine whether we are healthy or not. Our mental health plays a huge role in it and yet we still neglect it or avoid working on it. We often brush it off and hope that it will work itself out, but it never does. Our minds are wired in every cell of our bodies. Impacting them directly even when we are not noticing the processes in the background. Sometimes years can go by and we are still experiencing ripple effect in our health from the issues and trauma never addressed, stored and blocked in our system. Simply because we did not know how to deal with them properly on our own or ignored them.
So do you really want to be healthy? Or, just to appear to be healthy? Sadly appearing part usually is a lot easier.
