50 Anti-Ageing Tips

1 Meditation

A few minutes a day can ease physical ailments, calm the mind, and reduce stress. Meditation can also lead to a deeper self-awareness.

2 De-stressing

Stress starts off as a mental and emotional barrier, which can then manifest physically. Finding ways to de-stress can have incredible results on your longevity.

3 Taking time off stress

Everyone has at least one source of stress, and many have plenty more. Stepping away from it for sometime is very important for your mind and body to recover. Time to turn off and recharge.

4 Positive thoughts

Positive affirmations said daily, or even throughout the day, can slowly change the way you think. Do it well and you can improve self-esteem, fend off depression, and stand a better chance of meeting your goals.

5 Me time

Taking some time away to just focus on yourself can do wonders for your well-being. It can be something exciting like a night out with friends or something simple and quiet like taking a well-deserved nap.

6 Ice baths

After a good workout, five to ten minutes of cold therapy can help the body speed-up the healing of tiny muscle tears that happen during exercise. Ice baths help to improve blood circulation, flush out waste by-products, and reduce swelling and tissue breakdown.

7 Probiotics

Science is finally catching up with the importance of gut health. For optimal gut flora, eat fermented food such as yoghurt, kefir and sauerkraut, and use probiotic supplements.

8 Bedtime routine
