Change One Thing To Improve Aging

You can exercise more, eat less, sleep more. You can buy a dog for company, choose fun eyewear, and join meetup groups and mingle. The problem is, you still have the same thought patterns.

If you think you are aging, and not in a good way, you will continue to foster the illusion that you have no control over your aging process. Example: there’s a history of heart disease and diabetes in your family, everyone is overweight, they all died too soon.

Everything changes when you change your thinking. Aging isn’t about a loss of vision and hearing, mobility, bad knees, lower back issues, or pain. Aging is freedom from thinking that the status quo is all there is. Be remarkable. Think different. Challenge everything you know about aging.

Neuroscience has shown that we can develop tools to combat the aging process. Lifelong learners live longer, and may reduce the effects of Alzheimer’s. Become a lifelong learner.

People who stay active (reaching into the refrigerator for a beer is not exercise) are healthier. Keep moving as you age.

Vision improves posture and balance. Practice vision drills.

Sleep quality improves food choices. Get enough sleep.

Paying attention to what you do, how you do it and why, helps you to understand why you are where you are, now.

You can do this. Yes it’s work, but there are tools that help.

Aging isn’t onerous.

It’s freedom to explore how your life could be different if you believe it’s possible.

It starts with changing your thoughts. That’s Aging Intelligently
