How To Age Gracefully!

Like it or not, you’re getting older each day.  You no longer have to be “just lucky” to reach 70 , 80 or older during you life.  Thus, how can you age, with as much quality of life as possible?

Ann Boroch, is a Certified Nutritional Consultant (CNC) and Naturopath, with a private practice outside Los Angeles.  She has appeared on numerous television and radio programs, discussing wellness issues.  Ms. Boroch has some definite ideas on “Quality Aging”, and what it takes to enjoy peak health during this journey called life.

Ms. Boroch believes it’s imperative for you to take charge of your health, by doing the following:

  • Eating a healthy diet;
  • Reducing the toxicity in your living environment;
  • Getting plenty of physical activity;
  • Taking the right supplements; and
  • Lowering your acidity, to reduce inflammation in your body.

These suggestions are the foundation of her “Anti-Aging” checklist.  Do you see any need for improvement in your life?

The Bottom Line:  You have two choices.  The first, is to continue health practices that leave your life to the mercy of chance, hoping for a good result.  Or you will take more responsibility for your health, by adopting a lifestyle more likely to end with “golden years” later.  It’s up to you. The one thing certain is, aging will happen.  The question becomes, how will you engage the process?

Do you want to age gracefully?

Are Kind Words An Answer For Stress?

Stress caused by the daily pressures of life, affects every system of your body.  Your efforts to relieve stress will fail, if you don’t understand how to process it.  How do you prepare to deal with the toxic damage, stress can cause to your health?

Jim LaValle, a licensed pharmacist and naturopathic medicine practitioner, has an interesting approach to stress relief.  He believes each person needs to take an active role in relieving stress, by practicing kindness to others.  Thus, by using kind words during your interactions with others, you’ll have a tremendous impact on their stress, as well as your own.  All without taking drugs.

Health VideosKind Words: The Stress Reliever

 

This seems to give a new feeling to the phrase, “what goes around, comes around”.

The Bottom Line:  You need to look at how you process stress in your life.  If you lash out at others with your stress, you don’t relieve your stress and just heap more stress upon them.  Your relationships matter, don’t let them suffer because of your pressures.  Nurture them by allotting some time each day to vent your stress through meditation, exercise, reading or whatever calms you.

Try using kind words to others.  What do you have to lose?

It’s your life, live well.
