Looking younger and feeling younger is a dream of the most of people. Fortunately, modern anti-aging technologies including cosmetic surgeries and effective skin care procedures, modern trends for healthy lifestyle, today’s communication and entertainment opportunities, as well as many other factors, contribute greatly to making it easier for us to stay young in our mind and body. However, there are certain issues which have more importance than others. Below, check out the list of 5 very easy and effective tactics for everyone who is dreaming about feeling and looking younger.
1. Use the healthiest cooking technique: steaming! In contrast to frying, grilling or roasting, steaming is probably the healthiest known method of cooking meals that has been practiced since the stone age. In those times, ancient people were cooking their meals over hot stones and hot springs. Nowadays, steaming is gaining extreme popularity around the world. Though this method is suitable for most foods, many experts say that it is essential to cook vegetables using steam because this is the only known way to preserve anti-oxidants, as well as other vitamins and nutrients.
2. Get enough of Vitamin C. Adding to your daily diet the foods like strawberries, oranges, broccoli, cauliflower, parsley, kale, kiwifruit, papaya, cabbage, and others will help you provide your body with necessary amounts of vitamin C. It is really important for those who are dreaming about looking younger because, according to the latest studies, vitamin C has a property to stimulate collagen production and improve our skin quality.
3. Exercise to tone your upper arms. Bat wings instead of toned and healthy upper arms are considered the most terrible and creepy signs of aging. There are many effective exercises to get rid of flabby upper arms, and overhead triceps extension with small dumbbells is the easiest one of those. You can use one dumbbell and position it overhead: elbows overhead, start flexing your elbows and lower your forearm behind upper arm. Or, as an alternative exercise, you can use two small dumbbells: extend your arms and rotate them in small circles.
4. Release your worries and keep your anxiety under control. If you are constantly irritated, worried, anxious, or unhappy, you’ll definitely feel more worn out and older. If you dream about feeling younger, learn to control all situations in your life and simply accept the things that you can not alter, without worries and stresses.
5. Have fun and behave as a kid. Many would agree that nothing but getting back to the activities we liked in the childhood can make us feel younger! Painting an outdoor canvas, playing water limbo, taking care of a pet, having an afternoon bike ride on the beach, watching clouds and everything that kids love – what else can make you feel more headlong and problem-free?
