According to new studies seniority “perceived” is more important than the date of birth
Brain and health, age is not measured in years
Do not eat too much nor too little, drink in moderation, do not smoke, go to the doctor and heal for a long life
Two Chinese women, mother and daughter, in the picture that has knocked a photo contest on the “hottest mom” of Asian weibo website. com Having forty, fifty, seventy or eighty, it seems that they are now only verbal expressions, which are useful but not decisive guidance but not descriptive. “Everyone has the age that he holds himself,” and often feels even say if this sentence is taken with the spirit and thrift seems to be the one that best describes your situation. We are not talking of course of serious diseases, and especially we are talking of our time, in which life is stretching more than a quarter of every year that passes. Many seniors live like a real “age earned it.” With a bonus especially for women who live an average of six to seven years longer than males. This is confirmed by a recent study published by the Population and Development Review , Scientific American magazine that has linked the chronological age with other factors that contribute to the ‘”real age”: health, level of disability, cognitive functions. And we also confirm the results of a study published recently in the British Medical Journal , on pairs of twins: the two lived most of what he felt (and looked) more young.
PURSUE DREAMS – So age does not matter? Counts, counts, but as a design potential, which, if not developed and brought to the fore even see it. These are words of hope, but not cloying treacle or madness comforting, are an invitation to live it’s life according to their own aspirations and expectations; their dreams come true I guess. This is a great new freedom, and even a little on a new responsibility. There are two driving forces of a protracted youth: the planning and activity. Never close your horizons and feel their future shorten. Behind we have a life and why not think about it too before? If there’s a passion, of course, and maybe more passions. Ultimately, it is the passion that gives depth to our lives and determines the actual size: not necessarily a long life, but a full, free and warm, and the brain in this matters a lot. In the face of the spread of all kinds of tips for aging well, my motto is: “Eat everything in moderation, do not overdo sport, use your brain without fear of exaggerating.”
USE THE BRAIN – Because the brain? We do not know, but it has been observed by many that the brain must manage the substances that control in some way the progress of our years, and even in case of severe neurodegenerative disorders employing someone who has lived most of his brain is much better. Sooner or later you will understand why, and we will make it a cornerstone of our conduct. In the meantime, what to do? Do not overdo it on anything, but rather straimmaginare, if the verb exists, and expect so much from the days to come and “look out” on those. At the end of the year they are made of days. Do not eat too much nor too little, drink in moderation and do not smoke, are the essential points, but also go to the doctor and get treatment. Not caring is stupid, not heroes. Listen to the advice of the doctor and get the required analysis. It sounds ridiculous, but sadly many wither for not having observed these elementary precautions, perhaps with the strongest being always been healthy. Having good genes does not hurt of course, but having a good relationship with yourself is even more important. At the bottom of all religions have pushed him to be a kind of “examination of conscience”, either solo or with some “wise”. I think it’s essential.
FRONT OF THE MIRROR – Every evening look in the mirror and say, “You can look at it head on? Did you do what you must, of course, but also what you feel like doing? Have you looked at the world and yourself in the world? You thought that if you neglect, psychologically or physically, you can obtain an unexpected pain to people who are dear to you? You have set in motion a few small new mechanism and have sown some seeds? Would you like that after his death there was talk of you as now you want them to talk to you? As you, in your underwear, talk about you? Can you imagine how those who know you will speak to you? “. Doing so also death is exorcised and becomes one of the many episodes of life. At the end of the fear of death is the fear of (bad) life. It’s her life and a possible malaconduzione that you should be afraid. It is especially important to be able to say “I lived” without wasting chances and opportunities, without sacrificing fear. No one wants more good than those who expect a lot from us. Including ourselves.
