How To Stay Young And Happy

How To Stay Young And Happy - A Start!

Nothing can physically stop aging, but it's important to realise that the whole aging process is just a conversation we have. It's a story. We've made up the concept of time and how long it lasts, and aging is just a by-product of it.

Still, there are things that ‘happen' to our bodies as time goes by. We must be responsible for that, and do what we can to not necessarily stop looking older, because that's a bit pointless, but stay as healthy and as happy as we can possibly be.

We know all this. It isn't a secret. But knowing isn't enough because if it was, there would be no weight problems, and no relationship issues. So here's a start, and if we're serious, we'll do these as a natural and joyous part of living:

1. Eat fruit and vegetables every day

2. Drink plenty of fresh, uncontaminated water, every day

3. Live happily

4. Find your passion in life, and live it

5. Smile and laugh a lot with people

6. Make friends

7. Be honest, both with yourself and others

8. Stay away from dairy

9. Do things you love doing

10. Love and allow yourself to be loved back

11. Find an exercise you enjoy doing, and do it

12. Swim

13. Walk

14. Sleep well

15. Stay away from drugs, including cigarettes and excessive alcohol

16. Go to places you love to visit

17. Listen to music that touches you

18. Live in the moment

19. DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT. Most of the stuff we worry about is rarely as bad as it seems.

20. Communicate

21. Be responsible

22. Write a list of 1001 things you want to do in life, and begin crossing them off

23. A dozen hugs a day

24. Eat less processed food

25. Reduce causes of stress and depression in your life

26. Never retire. If you love and have a passion for what you do, why would you?

27. Treat yourself and others

28. Give

29. Share

30. Live NOW, not yesterday or tomorrow

31. Be patient

32. Care for those around you

33. Never give in

34. Choose your life. Choose it!

And never try and do it alone. No one ever has, and I don't expect anyone ever will.

And Good Luck :o)
