9 Habits that Age Us

Many of the habits we adopt have an impact on how fast we age and compromise our health, they include:
  1. Stress
  2. Smoking
  3. Poor Sleep
  4. Alcohol
  5. Poor Diet
  6. Sun Exposure
  7. Not exercising
  8. Resentment
  9. Lack of Joy
All of the above effect not only how quickly our body can age, but also effect our skin. Many of the external decisions you make everyday have a huge effect on how you feel and look. Number 8 is worth a mention, as it has been shown that resentment can eat away at people and lead to a higher incidence of heart disease. So stop resenting others and track what you do want, not what others have or do.

"The way you think, the way you behave, the way you eat, can influence your life by 30 to 50 years."

Deepak Chopra

 Wishing you an ageless and fun filled day.
