Unless you are VERY young, you probably are trying to look younger - or at least not older. Even though I am very proud of every day of my 59 years.... I don't especially want to LOOK like I'm approaching 60.
I want to look and be the best I can.
The easiest and quickest way to look younger and feel better is to stand up straight. Yeah, it is that easy. You can look 5 to 10 pounds lighter and years younger if you will just stand up straight and hold your stomach in. Yep... easy schmeesy!
Didn't cost you a thing. Besides, when you use good posture, you are enabling you insides to line up and give some relief to those organs that are getting squashed and twisted and cramped because you slump... By giving them room to "be" where they are supposed to be and have the room they need you are also helping your health, circulation, and breathing.
You will have more energy and more confidence and you will be surprised how others treat you because you stand up straight, shoulders back, chin up, chest out, stomach in.
And don't forget to SMILE! (remember, you are never fully dressed without a smile!)
Who said that natural health had to be weird and hard to swallow?
So, your assignment for today is to watch your posture and smile! (more later on how your attitude will effect your health)

New Age Stuff
In my studies to find out about living longer and better I come across lots of Eastern Religion type things and new age stuff. Not so much in the courses from my school, but in my research.
I realized that these other people are not Christians... therefore, they have no hope for life after death or eternal life with a Savior.
Because of their nonbelief, these new age nonbelievers have done some study and come up with some really good information for all of us to tap into that can help us live on this earth longer and better...
Then, WE have a great life eternally! Before we get to eternity, I have to think that if we are still around then there is something special for us to do in this life. I also think that we need to have a mission or purpose to inspire us to live a long healthy life. There is no need for us to just live a long time for nothing.
All that to say, don't discount some funny sounding things just because it is different. Eat the hay and spit out the stubble... (hay is fiber and makes you a "regular" person... ). Apply and use what you feel comfortable with doing. (like the neti pot for helping stopped up sinus problems)
I'll continue with more and more... meanwhile, think about why you are here... there IS a reason!

So, How Old Are You?
In some of my research I was asked the question. Of course, I was thinking of my age in years...
Then, I continued to read that the important thing is not your chronological age, but your physical age.
I don't care how young your skin and brain are, if your heart is 90, then you are 90.
Scary thought....
So, find out the age of each part of your body and then work on increasing the life span of that part. You will then be on the road to becoming more youthful...
More to come...
