“Most people think that aging is irreversible and we know that there are mechanisms even in the human machinery that allow for the reversal of aging, through correction of diet, through anti-oxidants, through removal of toxins from the body, through exercise, through yoga and breathing techniques, and through meditation.”
These words by Deepak Chopra are so wonderfully encouraging. We can change ourselves for the better! I know so well that it is not easy. So many things can keep us from changing. But we must!!! We must eat right……even if that means I cannot drink my beloved Diet Coke anymore. I love cookies so that is a problem. But, I found something that helps a little with my sweet tooth. Instead of buying a bag of cookies and eating the whole bag or eating half the bag and throwing out the rest, I buy frozen. So when I have to have my cookies I take two out of the freezer and bake them. And there are delicious low sugar options. So when I take them out of the oven, that’s it! Two cookies is my ration. There is also a new soda that is on the market that is supposed to be healthy and taste great. I will keep you updated on that. We have to fill ourselves up with fruits and veggies. Eating fruits will keep us younger looking because vitamin C is essential for building collagen. The fiber also keeps us feeling full. We MUST exercise. Whether we want to or not. We have to! Let’s find a form of exercise that we can enjoy. There are many, many options. Deepak Chopra also recommends yoga.
We can reverse the aging process so let’s get going!!! Let’s do it together! Any tips or suggestions?
No pressure here. I’m having a hard time myself lately with trying to eat right and exercise (and I’m a trainer lol). There are bumps in the road for anyone. Let’s try to encourage each other to be better versions of ourselves! We will feel so much better mentally and physically. xoxo
