It may happen more often if you run into an old friend who hasn’t really changed or see an old picture and think…wow, I have changed. Maybe a high school or family reunion jogs a memory. Or maybe you haven’t aged and you want to keep it that way!
Regardless of why or if, remembering 7 simple things can be key. The good news is, we know about these 7 tips.
Here they are:
- Have a positive attitude. Towards everything including aging. You can choose to be happy and enjoy life no matter what cards have been dealt.
- Eat well. Easier said then done but we all know what healthy eating looks like.
- Portion control. Again we know what this is. it’s okay to indulge just not all the time and with everything!
- Exercise as often as possible. Even if only a walk a day. Something is better than nothing.
