Feeling Younger

The older you get, the more you will have a tendency to feel a desire to "still feel young"; not that this is so much an instance of feeling discontent, or of wanting to be in a different stage of your life than the one in which you are currently in, but more so that you will start to realize - as you get older - all the things you took for granted when you were younger! As you start to advance in age, you will naturally feel a regression in the way you feel in certain areas, but while it is important that you are aware of this, there are also a number of things you can do in order to improve the way you feel even as you advance in age.

Your mind: Although the regression of your mind will be less immediately evident than the regression of your body, you will still want to make sure you are doing everything you can to keep your mind strong and "young" - and the best thing you can do to accomplish this is for you to make sure you are keeping your mind engaged in fun and challenging activities on a regular basis, such as brain games and brain teasers.

Your muscles: As you get older, you will have a tendency to spend more and more time sitting around on your bottom; while it is nice to relax at times, it is also nice for your muscles to remain in total working order, so make sure you are still moving around and remaining active, even as you have an excuse to simply sit around!

Your joints: Keeping your joints young will take a lot of the same things as keeping your muscles young - but you will also want to walk and swim regularly in order to strengthen your joints.

You might not be able to prevent yourself from aging, but you can still take these steps to help your mind and body to continue feeling young, even as you age!
