4 Ways to Age Healthily and Happily
​Contrary to popular belief, you are not ‘past it’ as soon as you hit 40, and it is more common than you might expect to be happier and healthier than you have ever been before as you get older. To make sure that you can stay feeling youthful and open to the world around you for longer, here are some of the best ways that you can age both healthily and happily.  

​1.   Keep Your Looks Young 

​Many people worry about aging on their appearance, which can dampen their spirits and confidence, preventing them from maintaining social relationships and trying new things. The most important aspect of your appearance that can determine whether you look young is your skin. Looking after your skin can also be vital for your health, as exposure to the sun can cause both wrinkles and skin cancer. If you want to age gracefully and keep your youthful appearance for longer, you should consider visiting a Los Angeles Skin Doctor who can help you get the glow that you are missing. For instance, at Your Laser Skin Care, they can offer you Botox and filler treatments that can keep your skin buoyant long into old age.

​2.   Stay Present 

​As you get older, it can be easy to focus on the regrets that you have in your life and worry about the future of both your health and happiness. Instead of falling into this trap, you should attempt to stay present by focusing on the positives that you have in your life. Some of the best ways to do this are by journaling, trying to see the bigger picture,  chatting with a family member, and creating positive self-talk that can get you out of any funks that you fall into. 

​3.   Look After Your Teeth

​You only have one set of adult teeth throughout your lifetime, and this means that it is vital that you hold onto them for as long as possible. As you get older, your teeth are more susceptible to problems such as decay. To prevent you from losing your teeth, you should make sure that you attend regular check-ups, that you brush your teeth twice a day, and that you avoid foods with high sugar and salt contents.

4.   Stay Active

​Staying active can do wonders for both your mental and physical health. You should not only do regular exercise to stave off conditions such as strokes and heart disease, but you should also make sure that you get out of the house, try new hobbies, and attend social events, which can help keep your mind whirring and prevent depression and anxiety. If you are looking to start exercising, you should consider low impact exercises such as swimming. This can help you stay fit without putting excess strain on your body and its muscles, often doing more harm than good. Low impact exercise is often also a chance to take time out and relax at a sedate pace.
