An Anti-Aging Program For Baby Boomers

The Mind Body Fitness aspect of the Mental Fitness portion of the Anti Aging Program is very often overlooked.

There is a real connection between what you think and what happens in your body (the so-called mind-body connection). For example (authors/methods are cited under each example),

* Employ your mind to heal your body through mental imagery.
Gerald Epstein

* Witness the recognition of thoughts attracting more of the same thoughts - the so-called Law of Attraction.
Joe Vitale
Abraham-Hicks

* Meditation has been known to help reduce stress and heal heart disease (along with exercise and nutrition).
Jose Silva
Dr. Dean Ornish

* "Living in the NOW" also relieves stress and slows the aging process. Worrying about what happened in the past or what will happen in the future creates way too much distress.
Eckhart Tolle (The Power Of NOW, Practicing the Power of NOW)

If you don't believe in the mind body connection, you will neglect Mind Body Fitness and miss out on a major area of Mental Finess.

Refer to the list of resources below for more Mind Body Fitness Information. These resources are ones that the author has used and personally recommends.

This part of the anti-aging program is a Use It or Lose It Scenario:

Use your mind to improve cognitive functioning,

or lose your neurons FOREVER.

NEUROBICS
Fact is, you can practice neurobics (or brainercise) for as little as
5 minutes per day and it will help improve your memory, create new brain pathways, help prevent dementia, and actually increase your intelligence.

For example, simple neurobics exercises are to do things out of the ordinary for you - brush your teeth left-handed if you are right-handed, pretend you are blind and then perform an everyday action like getting dressed, or take a new route to work.

Why are these exercises helpful in improving cognitive functioning? Just practicing activities you would not normally do creates new neural pathways. In essence, you expand cognitivity.
