We can
read in the press that every eight seconds one person in the United States
turn 50. This is unprecedented time in human history.
When we see the first wrinkle on the face we
become intensely preoccupied with the question: "How to stop this?" We panic
and start applying different creams and lotions with hope that wrinkles will
disappear.
The problem is not in the skin itself, but by a
weakening of the underlying muscles and tissue. Aging is caused by a
breakdown in the genetic code. As we age, the regenerating process becomes
less than perfect.
Most modern exercise programs dismiss the face
as a bony, unchangeable part of the body. It is not. Tiny muscles shape our
expressions. There are pressure points and resistance movements we can use
to help restore the skin ‘s resiliency and improve subcutaneous muscle tone.
The specific technique for this kind of treatment leaves us feeling
refreshed, relaxed and energized.
Remember, our mission is to
look and feel our best.
We need a program that helps us feel and look
better as long as we wish, and now we have the program. But before we start,
let's check out few things that will help reach our goal:
Reduce stress.
The hormone cortisol is created by the body in emergency
situations. But too much of cortisol in the body can be a key factor of
aging. We need to develop relaxation techniques to lower stress levels.
These can be: meditation, selecred elements of aerobics, pressure point
therapy for the face and upper body, breathing, and stretching exercises.
Maintain a healthy
diet. "Every doughnut, candy bar and soda adds to a toxic
excess of blood sugar that shows up on your face." - Dr. Vincent Giampapa,
founder of the American Academy of Anti-aging Medicine. And we cannot go
further without nutrition. I found a few recipes that can improve the diet:
Vitamin Salad, Sunscreen Soup, and Weight Loss
Juice.
Supplements help the body fight the free
radicals. We can take 350 mgs of CAE extract (carboxyl alkyl esters); 10-30
mgs of niacinamide; 10-25 mgs of zinc for DNA repair.
Melatonin, produced by the body's pineal
gland, lowers in production and we become susceptible to wrinkling. We need
to consult the doctor about proper dosage of supplements.
Other important steps to keep in great shape:
avoid alcohol, stop smoking, protect the skin from the sun with sunscreen,
glasses, hat, have a good sleep.
Our goal is a rejuvenation of our face,
restoring it back to a more youthful appearance. If we age smarter we will
look younger than our chronological age. We will be healthier, more
cheerful, better adjusted, more satisfied with our lives, and live longer.
When we have the opportunity to improve physical
appearance through special treatments and makeovers, there are significant
gains in our self-image, self-esteem, confidence, and the sense of physical
well-being.
The opportunity has come: we have a book
"STAYOUNG(c). Push Your Point & Be Happy",
this is a system that includes: pressure points to the face and upper body,
facial resistance exercises, elements of aerobics, breathing exercises, and
coordination.
Before I began writing the book, I tried
everything in practice along with my clients. We have been doing the
exercises for almost a year and I can see a lot of improvement in both
appearance and health. Some people even accused me in a secret face lift.
But I simply feel more relaxed and more energetic, I am flexible, I am in
great mood, I believe in the future and I have a lot of plans. I invite you
to join me in my journey to find the youth. God help us!
