You don’t need to set out into a perilous journey like Gilgamesh, to discover the secrets of the fountain of youth, or sell your soul like Dorian Gray just to keep a youthful appearance.
There is no doubt that the human body is a wonderful machine, made to last, renovate and rejuvenate itself - as long as we take good care of it. In this, there is no much difference with any other machine which for a useful life of service needs good routine maintenance.
I’ll start examining some strategies that I found very useful in the process of rejuvenating body and mind. In order for this to have a lasting motivating meaning, the first question we need to answer is WHY?
Why we would want to rejuvenate our bodies and minds? Also, what rejuvenation is and, what it isn’t.
The best place to start your rejuvenation project is right where you are just now.
That of course will be a very different place for each one of us. It will depend on our age, our lifestyle and eating habits, our makeup, and our culture and our mental attitude.
Regardless of all those variables, you can be very confident that with a little determination and attention to yourself, the application of the secrets will gradually produce good results.
It would be an exciting journey that would have the first rewards when you’ll start feeling great, looking at the mirror without feeling uncomfortable and especially when people would start asking if you had a Botox treatment or something because you would look so much younger than your age.
The secrets to staying young embrace every area of one’s life: physical, emotional and spiritual. I will be suggesting small steps in all these areas that will lead to sustainable changes for the better.
How are you feeling just now? Do you feel old? Do you feel rusty? Tired? Lacking motivation and joie de vivre? Lacking physical flexibility?
Do you yearn for the days when you used to jump out of bed each morning ready to meet the challenges of the new day, full of excitement and the joy of being alive?
All those reasons and many others are healthy grounds to want to rejuvenate your mind and body.
I can’t promise that these secrets will magically improve your health and make you look 20 years younger overnight. As we said above, that will depend very much on where you are just now. But they will give you the key to open doors you probably didn’t even know they exist.
I just want to remind you again, that the secrets I have here to share with you are not originated from my own imagination. In every field or hill, people who know anything, stand on the shoulders of those who climbed there before them. In fact, what I like to call “secrets”, are not really secrets at all. They have been known to mankind for hundreds, maybe thousands of years. A lot of what is known to foster human longevity is in reality very simple things. Sometimes deceivingly simple, which make its benefits, unbelievable to many.
Please don’t allow the apparent simplicity of some of those secrets deceive you. They all belong to a heritage of knowledge and ideas which are the foundation of a youthful and healthy life..
As you come across something you think may be useful for your personal situation, please don’t take the procrastinating stand of “Mmm, yeh... very interesting – I’ll keep it on file” type of attitude. Go on and implement plans to try it!
Remember that when it comes to your own health and wellbeing, only you can do something about it. No one else will!
No one but you can rejuvenate yourself. No one but you can achieve that.
In my next post, I’ll start writing about something of substance, not just spin. I’ll start sharing with you some ideas that, if applied, will immediately produce visible results in reversing already existing effects of ageing. I’ll be talking about internal and external methods that include eating habits, herbs and nutritional supplements.
Remember: the ravages of age are not totally avoidable, but there is a lot we can do to keep them at bay for as long as possible.
