Healthy Aging: Activity Provides Anti-Aging Therapy

Activity Keeps You Young
When your doctor is unable to find a reason for the cause of your ailment or discomfort, the doctor may consider the problem as being "all in your head." In a sense, most ailments are if you consider that your mental state greatly influences your physical condition. Your thoughts have such a strong effect upon your body that they can powerfully contribute to the aging process.

Aging is a disturbing and confusing issue that concerns all of us. When our thoughts, fears and stress are out of control, our bodies suffer from the resultant negative impact. What complicates matters is that the mind doesn't just exist within the brain; it is present in the form of DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) within every cell of the body.

DNA is a master processor of information for the entire body and therefore stresses and strong emotions have a bearing upon this processing. DNA is a force in nature that does not age or perish, and its mysteries may hold key answers about the aging process.

Slowing Down the Aging Process
DNA is indestructible; therefore, why should aging take place? By thinking of ourselves as only physical beings, we will continue to age because our mind reinforces physical limitations. We associate our identity or existence to an ever-aging physical body.

A human being's essence is energy. Physicists have determined energy to be the basis of matter which comprises our bodies and all things physical. We draw energy from the calmness of our inner selves.

Calm Your Mind to Calm Your Body
Focused, mental calmness is the initial step to protect cells from the ravages of stress and aging. Consuming natural foods and beverages is the next step that enables the cells to maintain their integrity, strength, and durability. By using a deep cleansing supplementation program, the cells' circuitry will retard the aging process.

Since we all choose to nourish our bodies and minds differently, our physical conditions and appearances will vary greatly at the same chronological age. This also affects the development of so-called diseases we anticipate with the aging process.

If you desire to feel younger and healthier, your mind will assist you. The mind provides you with intuitive knowledge about whether you are helping or harming yourself with your lifestyle and eating choices. Because the mind electromagnetically instructs every cell. It is a master healer. Your chronological age is unalterable - but your biological age is determined by how you live your life.

Studies prove that consistent calmness for a few minutes per day can add years to a person's life. Peaceful contemplation, meditation, or prayer allows the body to be still and the mind to slow down. A rested mind facilitates the release of DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone) from the adrenal glands.

A Calm Mind Increases Your DHEA Levels
DHEA, a steroid hormone released by the adrenal glands that may be related to longevity, holds great potential in retarding the aging process. It is a naturally occurring hormone that measures its highest in people who are in their mid-twenties. There is a continuous decline of DHEA to approximately 5% in a person's early seventies.

DHEA occurs at higher levels for those people who choose to focus and relax their minds while eliminating disturbing thoughts during this process. Scientific research of these individuals has proven decreased rates of diseases such as arthritis, diabetes, cancer, and especially those diseases affecting the heart.

Toxicity: Root Cause of Illness and Aging
Discovering the root cause of a problem accomplishes true healing. The root of aging, as with illness, is often due to blockages within the body. Blockages occur from internal pollution that is mostly due to toxic foods such as refined white sugar, refined white flour, cow's dairy products, artificial additives, and preservatives that lead to premature aging and illness.

If you could avoid or erase every upsetting or unpleasant event, you could substantially slow your aging process. These events cause stress and add to problems caused by the worn and toxic cells apparent in an aging body. The greater the amount of these cells, the older your body's biological age.

Youthful health is apparent in people of all ages who radiate the energy that empowers a strong sense of wellness. When people look to natural ways of calming their minds and eat in a healthy manner, they help to protect, repair, and hinder their cells from absorbing toxins. They often act and feel younger than those whose bodies become over-burdened with toxicity.
