The most overrated subject in this world is aging.Millions of "thinking man and women hours"have been wasted on this vanity induced and narcissist perception of looking younger.Scientists and doctors the world over are happily "discovering some gene or dna in rocks,trees and even algae or some genome from vegetation to come up with a cure to stop aging.And now with the God Particle having being discovered,God help us!!.The cure is only a test tube or pill away from our reach.There are anti-aging creams,fairness creams,something called botox which indeed permits you to delude that you look younger than you really are.
It is no longer a perrogative of our tinsel town folks to go under the scalpel;most of our well-heeled cousins and friends do not have a second thought about getting a nose job,tummy tuck,thigh tuck or boob job done-cost no bar!!.On a more serious note,we have amongst us now "cosmetic surgery addicts"who suffer from Body Dysmorphic Disorder.A person with BDD suffers from extremely low self-esteem,envy over other's appearance,strong feelings of shame,and repeatedly consulting with plastic surgeons or dermatologists to find ways to improve his or her appearance.
Such are the social pressures to look younger,smarter and acceptable that people are actually saving up for these "procedures".Wonder what happened to saving for a rainy day? Probably with the rains playing traunt this "saving" is more relavent now than ever before.
THE ACTUAL SOLUTION TO AGING EMANATES FROM THE SAME AREA AS THE DESIRE TO STALL IT.OUR BRAIN.We can train our brain( hey that rhymes) to visualize and think about anything we desire.But first let us stop counting and worrying about the candles on the cake with each passing year.Age really is a state of the mind.Meditation and yoga practices can greatly help in this correction of our thought process.Visualization is simply powerfully focused thoughts in pictures.When you visualize then you materialize.Belief creates the actual fact.
Desire is not a bad word.Desire truth,desire honesty,love,friends,happiness,money(sure why not)? You will find contentment the moment you LOSE the desire to age younger. A few wrinkles on the face or neck or hands are simply physical manifestations of age.
Back to THINKING.The first part is to erase what has been placed genetically in our thoughts.Now substitute this space with ENERGY.a YOUNG MIND DISPLAYS A LOT OF ENERGY.By thinking energetically you VITALISE your space.You achieve a lot more.You develop a "can do" attitude.Suddenly people want a piece of YOUR action,YOUR time,YOUR company.And you are not even trying.That is the paradigm shift we should aspire for in our effort to age younger.
If you follow these suggestions please thank me for saving you your hard earned money.Better still,do some charity with it."Giving" releases a chemical in our brain called dopamine,which actually makes you "feel good" and YOUNGER.
