How To Age Backwards So You
Instantly Look Younger!
Have you ever asked yourself how you
can turn the clock back on your face
and body? Here are six amazing steps
for aging backwards. When a woman
(or a man, for that matter) reaches
a certain age, the signs of aging
inevitably start showing. We look in
the mirror and suddenly notice
crow's feet, age spots, forehead
lines, sagging skin and laugh lines.
All this need NOT be! Here’s some
great news, you can definitely
reverse the aging processes without
expensive and risky surgery or toxic
injections.
Step One: Skin Care. You are going
to have to invest in a set of high
quality skin care products. You will
need a good cleanser that is just
for your face, a daily moisturizer
with an SPF factor of at least 15
that will protect your face from
both UVA and UVB rays.
A
nightly moisturizer will nourish
your skin and help repair the sun
and environmental damage that has
already accumulated.
You will also want some additional
problem solvers to address the
specific areas where you want to see
a turnaround in your skin. This
could be your chest and neck area,
deep facial lines, sagging skin,
large pores, age spots, etc. Aging
backwards includes a vigorous
skin-care regime directed
specifically towards correcting sun
damage and years of unhealthy
living.
Step Two: Diet. The bottom line is
you simply have to eat the right
foods. Fresh produce and whole,
unprocessed foods are essential. I
also recommend a series of detox to
clear your organs and digestive
tract from accumulated toxins and
years of bad eating habits. Eighty
percent of your diet should consist
of fresh vegetables and limited
quantities of fruit (the greener and
more organic the better). The other
twenty percent can include healthful
protein sources like soy, lean
low-mercury fish (like salmon),
whole grains and nuts. The way you
eat has an undeniable impact on how
young you look. If you eat healthy,
you will lose weight (if you need
to), your health will improve, your
hair will be strong and shiny and
your skin will begin to heal. Very
rapidly, you'll start actually aging
backwards!
Step Three: Hydration. Drink a liter
of purified, alkaline water for
every 30 to 40 lbs. of weight that
you carry, every day. This means 32
ounces 3 to 4 times a day. Water is
vital to your system. A
well-hydrated body is a healthy
body. A healthy body looks more
youthful. Drink the right kind of
water and you will start looking
younger...and start to age
backwards.
Step Four: Exercise. Fitness is an
absolute MUST in reversing the
effects of aging! As you become less
active during middle age, there is a
tendency toward couch-potato
syndrome. The fact is: the more you
sit around, the more your skin will
begin to sag, your muscle tone will
grow flaccid and the signs of aging
will become more prominent.
Conversely, if you do some form of
aerobic plus weight training 4 to 5
times a week for at least 30
minutes, your muscles will become
toned, your cardio-vascular system
will improve, your vital organs and
immune system will function better
and your skin will glow.
Step Five: Attitude. Last, but
certainly not least, is to keep your
mental, emotional and spiritual
focus directed toward being
positive, grateful. Don't think junk
thoughts. Negative thoughts are just
as harmful to the way you look as
junk food is to your longevity.
The most important secret to feeling
and looking younger is to foster an
attitude of gratitude, even when
times are tough. Gratitude is a
portal to happiness. And being happy
will make backwards aging happen
faster than anything else I've
mentioned.
Step Six: Kindness. And finally,
give of yourself - - do service of
some kind. Helpfulness to others is
a sure-fire way to improve your
overall attitude. Giving is its own
reward because to give is to
receive. If you are helpful,
grateful and free from destructive
patterns of thinking, you are
improving your body from the deepest
core of your being outward. The
results will show on your face.

Do You Want To
Succeed?
Don’t Ignore
These 10 Secrets From Self Help
Books…
When you know what
to do you can become successful. The
best thing self help books provide
you with is knowing how to change
your life. That's why I went ahead
and picked out 10 tips you
absolutely can't ignore.
1. Know What You
Want. Be precise and accurate in
what it is that you plan to achieve
in life. Know what you want and how
you plan to go about getting it.
2. Be Passionate.
If you want something you never had
before, you’ve got to be passionate
about going for it. Be prepared to
take the risks that will lead you to
the fulfillment of your endeavors.
As the old saying goes, "No risk; no
gain." Feel the fear and do it
anyway!!!
3. Start With A
Plan. What is it that you want out
of life? What are your personal
goals? Are they realistic and
achievable? Are you willing to pay
the price in advance to make your
dreams a reality? People don’t plan
to fail, they simply fail to plan.
Planning is half the battle to
getting started.
4. Visualize Yourself Where You Want
To Be. CEO of a firm; president of
your own company; team leader; dog
groomer...Whatever you want to be,
if you can’t see yourself in that
position, chances are you won’t be
able to get there. Failure is only a
state of mind, so make sure that you
have a strong mindset of
possibilities.
5. Put A Time Table Together For
Your Goals. There is no such thing
in reality as starting at the top
and working your way down. Where do
you see yourself in six months, a
year, or five years from now? Know
that reaching your full potential
will take time.
6. Allow Yourself
To Dream BIG. Let me ask you, do you
feel that your goals are a bit too
lofty? Well, the best self help
books will encourage you to dream
BIG dreams.
7. Take A Good
Look At Yourself. How do you choose
to live? Do you choose to live with
a feeling of importance or failure?
Let the excitement of your journey
create the level of success you want
to have in your life.
Whatever you do,
don’t let your goals overwhelm you.
Get on that carnival ride, strap
yourself in, and see your self
enjoying the thrill of the ride,
rather than flinching in terror.

How to Get Your
Teen to Respect You
Is
your teen driving you nuts? Discover
how to get your teen to respect you,
so you can start having more peace
and tranquility around the house.
Imagine a teen who speaks to you as
though you are worth more than the
empty pizza box he used to throw
under his bed but no longer does
because he regards you with high
esteem.
Picture a teenager who now listens
to you without interrupting, even
turning off his cell phone. This
character trait can transform family
life in amazing ways, but how to get
your teen to respect you? Let me
answer that with these helpful tips:
1)
Become a Positive Role Model - - You
must become a model of respect if
you expect your teen to exercise
that trait towards you. If you want
to be treated as though you have
value, you must first treat others
as though they have value. Don't ask
how to get your teen to respect you
until you learn how to show that you
value him or her.
Learn how to get your teen to
respect you by thinking about how
you treat others in the family. Do
you engage in husband or wife
bashing? Do you say things either to
or about your spouse that reflects
poorly on the spouse? Does speaking
negative about your spouse show that
you value your spouse?
When other family members speak to
you, do you show their value by
focusing on them? When your son or
daughter comes with a question, do
you turn off the TV to listen,
showing that he or she is more
important than the news that’s on
the television?
If you and a friend are enjoying
small talk on the phone and your
adolescent asks you a question, do
you send the kid packing or ask your
friend to call later?
If
you are serious about learning how
to get your teen to respect you,
take time to evaluate yourself.
Start by looking in the mirror. You
are a family leader. You are to lead
your teen. Lead by example and your
son or daughter is more likely to
follow.
2)
Definition: Learning how to get your
teen to respect you once you model
the quality will require that you
define this character trait clearly.
Adolescents don't want vagueness.
They want you to define your terms
clearly.
Define respect as a character trait
that recognizes each person's value.
Tell your son or daughter that they
have value and you try to recognize
that value in the way you treat
them. You don't have to become
technical just because you want to
know how to get your teen to respect
you. Be clever. Employ your grasp of
how to get your teen to respect you
by suggesting that a good-looking
boy or girl who is worth more than a
passing glance has some value. You
probably treat such people in ways
that show their value.
3)
Get Practical: Once you know in
theory how to get your teen to
respect you, you must become
practical. You will need to give
your son or daughter specifics. You
will need to supply realistic,
down-to-earth ways that you want
your teen to exercise this vital
character trait.
In
conclusion, learn how to get your
teen to respect you and you will be
light years beyond many parents and
teachers - especially those that
think insolence is a direct,
inescapable result of raging
hormones. You will be able to tell
them, from personal experience, that
once you learned how to get your
teen to respect you, your home life
will become tranquil compared to
what it used to be.

How To Help A
Loved One With Anxiety, Panic
Attacks and OCD.
One of the most important elements
in curing Anxiety, Panic and OCD is
to understand your friend and family
member. However, your love and true
desire to help can often backfire
causing even more anxiety for your
loved one. To help the sufferer back
to the road of recovery, you must
NEVER do some of the following:
1)
NEVER criticize or condemn the
anxiety or panic sufferer for their
actions or words! Be sure to never
undermine how the sufferer is
feeling. The sufferer is anxious and
nothing you can say will help. Be
supportive - when the sufferer knows
how to stop anxiety and panic, they
will.
2)
Anxiety sufferers are experiencing
the sensations and thoughts
associated with extreme threat and
fear. Regardless of how strange,
untrue or unfamiliar that is to you,
believe that the sufferer finds it
very real and disturbing to them.
They are NOT weak or silly... they
feel terrified!
3)
NEVER crowd a sufferer during a
panic attack or high anxiety; if
they need to be alone or to walk
away, allow them to; they will call
you or return when they are ready. A
sufferer doesn't always need hugs or
for you to follow them as they pace
around. Allow the sufferer to do as
THEY wish during high anxiety or
panic. 4) If you want to do
something useful for the sufferer
when they are panicking, give them a
glass of cold water to swish around
their mouth. This will activate the
dive response slowing the heart rate
down.
5)
NEVER tell a sufferer to 'pull
themselves together' or 'get a grip'
- do you think sufferers want to be
this way? If it were so easy to 'get
a grip', don't you think they would?
Sufferers don't YET have the tools
to stop anxiety or panic...don't
ever assume they have the control
but fail to use it.
6) NEVER FORCE them to go somewhere,
or do something, that increases
their anxiety - anxiety elimination
must be structured, supportive and
measured... forcing them to do
things which increases anxiety only
serves to push anxiety levels higher
when not done in conjunction with a
structured anxiety elimination
program.
7)
NEVER try to reason with a sufferer
when they panic or feel anxious.
Reason has no meaning to a sufferer
during high anxiety... they KNOW
that their anxiety is inappropriate,
but they are, at that time, unaware
and therefore powerless of what to
do about it.
8)
DO NOT threaten a sufferer with
consequences if they DON'T get well.
Many people will threaten having the
sufferer committed or threaten some
kind of unpleasant consequence of
their behavior to try and get the
sufferer to 'snap out' of their
anxiety. Again, sufferer's behaviors
aren't wanted or consciously
selected, so threats won't help!
9)
Sufferers often experience
disturbing thoughts, which remain
secret to them. Please be mindful
that these thoughts can make the
sufferer very uncomfortable or
scared. Some of their thoughts are
of an aggressive or sexual nature.
Don't presume that a sufferer is
coping and is clear of mind... deep
inside, there could be turmoil and
despair beneath the surface caused
by thoughts which scare them. Please
be patient and give them as much
support as you can with
unconditional love.

How To Radically
Reduce Your Stress In The Next 30
Days (or Less)!
Are you going through a challenging
time? Most families are! Chances are
you feel over-burdened, anxious and
worried about your ability to deal
with all that stress.
Stress, anxiety, fear, and worry are
all emotions which drain your energy
leaving you feeling paralyzed, stuck
and unable to see a way through your
problems.
When you are down have you ever
noticed how much time you spend
revisiting the past, replaying that
same old story in your head of what
happened and saying to yourself "if
only I had"...or thinking "what if?”
Your emotions are powerful. What you
think about you bring about. How you
think can enhance or destroy your
sense of inner peace and calm.
Learning to release attachment from
your story, your pain or sadness
takes practice, courage, and skill.
As a human, you are programmed to
care and worry, so naturally, if a
friend is upset, or your partner
falls ill, your natural tendency is
to empathize with their pain and to
feel sad for them.
The trick is to be able to empathize
with someone else's sorrow and pain
yet, somehow not to get stressed out
and totally worried; otherwise it
becomes harder for you to offer
support, encouragement and
compassionate advice.
Meditation, the art of stilling the
mind and achieving a state of inner
peace and calm is exactly what the
doctor ordered to help you restore a
sense of focus and inner balance
when stressed, anxious or worried.
Choose any one of these three simple
mediation techniques and with time,
you will find it easier to release
emotional stress and anxious
thoughts.
Candle Meditation: Sit on the floor
or on a chair with a lighted candle
in front of you. Gaze at the flame
through half-closed eyes, then close
your eyes and visualize the warm
glow from the candle behind your
eyelids. Stay focused on this image.
If you lose the image, gently open
your eyes and gaze at the flame,
then close your eyes and repeat.
Continue with this practice for 5 -
10 minutes. You can also practice
this meditation outside in nature by
focusing on a natural object, the
moon or a bright star at night. With
practice you will quite easily be
able to visualize your chosen object
when you close your eyes.
Breath Meditation: Sitting
comfortably, prepare to meditate.
Become aware of your breath. Breathe
in slowly and count "one". Slowly
breathe out and count "two". Breathe
in and count "three", breathe out
and count "four".... continue
counting your breaths up to number
10. When you reach number 10, go
back to number one and repeat the
practice for 5 - 20 minutes. If your
mind wanders during the practice and
you lose concentration, just return
your attention to the breath and
begin counting from number one.
Just Be: Sit quietly for 3 - 5
minutes and observe your thoughts
and feelings. Just sit and observe
these thoughts and feelings, without
becoming attached to them. Allow
them to flow naturally and see them
for what they are...just
energy...just thoughts. Breathe
deeply and consciously stay
connected with your breath as the
thoughts pass through your mind.
If
you can take time out during your
busy schedule to practice one of
these meditation techniques, it will
help you to feel calmer, less
stressed and more in control of any
sad or painful feelings you have so
you feel better and more able to
cope.
