If You Wanna Feel Young Again


How To Feel YoungBefore most of us even hit the best years of 40, we already feel like we're past 50. Old washed out. Tired of life. Longing for the days of youth. We want nothing more than to feel the joy of living again. Considering the wealth of beauty, adventure, and the richness of life that surrounds us and is at our disposal, it would be a shame to just shrivel up and die for a lack of inspiration to enjoy it. Being young is not a matter of age; it's a decision to embrace everyday life with the same freshness that you felt as a child. Life as you know it can take a turn for the better if you are willing to look in the right places. Check out these simple steps to feeling young again.

Don't Be Afraid To Learn And To Try New Things. 

When you were young, the sheer joy of doing something for the first time is what kept you on the edge of your seat. Why not reveal in that feeling again? Doing something new doesn't necessarily mean that you have to go bungee jumping or skydiving. It could be something more attainable too. Try cooking a new recipe, learning to dance, traveling to a new part of town (or even the world) where you've never been. 

Try your hand at a new sport

Go on an adventure and see life with new eyes as opposed to been-there-done-that. I used to have this morbid fear of looking stupid in front of people to the point of not even trying to experiment with new foods, not dancing at parties, and not singing when asked. Trust me, doing that makes you feel like a hag, both inside and out.

Make Time For Hanging Out With Friends Again.

And by this I don't mean the kind of friends that tear down your morals or self worth. We all deserve to be around people who pull us up rather than tear us down. Be with the people who make you happy, who aren't afraid to be themselves, who love life, and who laugh a lot too. Having good, strong social connections help to dispense youthful energy for a fact.

Embrace The Outdoors. 

Too many of us spend time on the things that, in our sunset years, won't be worth a dime. Get out of the hallowed halls of your office and spend some time in the great outdoors. Take your child for a stroll in the sunshine, read a book by the lake in the park, do some gardening, or go fishing. Full blown activities can be reserved for weekends and quiet evenings, but try taking a 15 to 20 minute break between office hours just to enjoy the creation around you. Drink in the sunlight too because sunlight helps your body to produce serotonin, a brain chemical that is a natural mood booster – it’s like using Viagra for better performance at night!

Awaken The Passion in your Intimate Life. 

While this point is not what most people talk about regarding “feeling young”, it is one of the biggest factors. Romance is the most powerful drug which scientists have called “the central motivation of all human activity”. Being in love does that much more for making you feel young again, as does great sex. It boosts your self-esteem, fuels your immune system, and improves your cardiovascular health. This is a world where people are busy, stress levels are high, and millions of couples face problems when it comes down to “it”.

In the year 2000, Scottish psychologist, Dr. David Weeks, did a research that showed that couples who had vigorous sex looked up to seven years younger than those who did not. Stress often leads to the inability to perform and in most cases results in ED. However, thanks to the internet, the ability to buy viagra online is not too difficult any more. Being able to buy it safely online beats the blushes that are involved in buying it in person from the store.

And Lastly, Think Positive Thoughts. 

The mind plays a big part in defining who we really are. No matter what your stage of life, or whatever problems you might be facing, strive to maintain a positive outlook on the situation. Dwell on the good in your mind. Doing so will enhance the sparkle in your eyes and the light in your smile. Being positive will keep you in a youthful frame of mind.
