Defy Your Age: How To Have Younger Looking Skin
Let's face it. You want to defy your age and keep looking young for as long as possible. The skin, being the body's largest organ, is the most vulnerable as it is exposed to all the elements – pollution, sun, and air.
It is also where you first begin to notice aging the most. You may be aging underneath your skin, but your skin (and hair) can be the first sign that you are, in fact, getting older.
Fortunately, there are some very effective ways to help your skin look younger. These are 6 tips to help you do just that.
Do not smoke
Cigarettes are full of harmful chemicals, over four thousand, in fact. These chemicals make your skin age faster than it should. In particular, smoking results in wrinkles.
Some of the wrinkles happen around your mouth when you inhale and puff on the cigarettes. However, wrinkles also show up all over your face.
The nicotine found in cigarettes causes blood vessels in your body to contract, including the blood vessels in your face. As a result, your skin gets less oxygen and important nutrients carried in your blood, and this ages your skin.
Other chemicals also harm the collagen and elastin which help prevent the sagging of your face.
Moisturize
You should not skip using moisturizer if you want your skin to look youthful. Using moisturizer day and night after cleansing helps to lock in hydration.
Coconut oil contains collagen which helps to create elasticity. This makes your skin firm. In addition to ingesting coconut oil, it is recommended for use on your skin as it provides great moisturization benefits.
It is also a natural exfoliant, removing dead skin cells. Be sure to use organic, high-quality coconut oil that has not been hydrogenated or further processed.
Use sunscreen and skin protection
The cumulative damage of the sun can result in wrinkles, and worse, cancer. The daily use of sunscreen and skin protection is one of the easiest ways to prevent aging of your skin, and keep it looking young for years to come. Look for a sunscreen with an SPF of 15-30, and one with both UVA and UVB protection.
Be sure to wear hats that shield your face and neck from the sun, and wear sunglasses to avoid squinting and the development of unsightly wrinkles around your eyes.
Exfoliate
Exfoliation of your skin involves removing the top dead skin cells, which tend to make skin look dull and flaky. It also reduces fine lines and helps improve the performance of treatment products you may be using on your skin.
It is suggested that you exfoliate your skin twice a week. To do so more often is not recommended as it can leave your skin irritated. The key is to use gentle scrubs that do not damage your skin.
Use supplements
To have healthy, youthful skin on the outside, means you also need to take care of the inside of you. In addition to healthy eating that includes lots of fruits and vegetables, supplementation with high-quality supplements is important.
Beta-carotene, Vitamin C, and Vitamin E are all important antioxidants that can help fight the signs of aging.
Reduce stress
Stress is harmful to your body in so many ways. It can be damaging to your heart and blood vessels. It is also damaging to your skin. That is why it is important to find ways to reduce your stress and keep it under control.

How To Create Good Habits to Achieve Your Goals
It should come as no surprise that the habits we form will determine our success or failure. After all, habits already dictate a lot about our lives. That’s why it’s so important to create good habits to achieve goals so that we can reach our fullest potential.
Let’s look at some examples of good habits that can help us achieve our goals:
1. Write down your goals
2. Visualize your goals
Take some time to write down a picture of how the goal will look like when it is accomplished. For example, if your goal is to lose weight, imagine how you will look when you have lost weight in your new slim-fitting clothes.
Paint this picture in your mind every morning as you say your affirmations.
3. Revisit the reason you’re doing what you do.
4. Be
proactive.
5. Focus on
the small stuff.
If you’re dealing with a big goal, such as some serious weight loss, it’s easy to lose your motivation when it feels like you’re not making progress.
Having small goals gives you milestones to celebrate and builds motivation back.
These kinds of goals come from small changes, like planning to eat a little differently (cutting carbs for example), or in taking the stairs instead of using the elevator.
6. Surround yourself with people who motivate you.
That is an easy habit for you to build, in that it involves choosing a little more carefully what company you keep.
Building a habit of meeting with this group regularly not only keeps
you motivated but has the added benefit
of cementing relationships with those around you.
7. Take care of yourself.
If you’ve ever been sick you know it’s impossible to be productive, or even to have a positive attitude when you’re not feeling good. That’s why it’s so important to take charge of your health.
Setting up some healthy habits such as going to the gym more often, or making changes in your meal plan to stay motivated longer just because you’re feeling better when your body is in sync. Your improved health makes this a win-win all the way around.
Building good habits is an awesome way to stay on track to reach your goals. The best part? As with any habit, if you do it enough, you’ll wind up acting without thinking, making motivation an automatic part of your life.

How To Exercise To Lower Blood Pressure
Walking has all sorts of health benefits including the ability to help lower your blood pressure and strengthen your heart. Many people at risk for stroke and heart disease are overweight, unhealthy, and have a hard time exercising. Thankfully walking is an easy, low-impact exercise to lower blood pressure that almost anyone can do.
Start where you’re at. Just put on your shoes and head out there. If all you can do is walk for five to ten minutes, start there. It’s a great start and that’s a lot more exercise than you’ve been getting. Stick with it for a week and then see if you can make it for 15 minutes.
If you can go for a 30-minute walk, start there. Pick up the pace, walk briskly and after a week or two, try to go for 45-minute walks. Or break up your walking workout into 3 shorter sessions interspersed throughout your day.
If you have any health conditions and in particular, if you’re suffering from high blood pressure and are at risk for heart disease, discuss your walking plans with your doctor. The two of you can come up with a plan that’s appropriate and safe for you.
Getting out and walking will help you on several different levels. The act of walking itself, particularly if you can go for a walkout in a pretty park is very relaxing and will lower your blood pressure soon after the walk. That’s a terrific benefit of walking and something that will help you feel better right away. But the benefits don’t stop there.
Regular exercise will strengthen your heart. Remember your heart is a muscle and going for a brisk walk works out more than your leg muscles. As you work out your heart, it gets stronger and better at pumping blood through your body.
And as you strengthen your muscles and your body overall, you are likely losing body fat. That’s good news for your blood pressure long-term. All it takes is heading out there for a short little walk each day. As you get stronger those walks will get longer and you may even give swimming or riding your bike a try.
A healthy diet, regular exercise, and losing weight are some of the most effective ways to reduce hypertension regularly. Add to that the fact that walking helps you destress and it’s no wonder that walking regularly has such beneficial effects on your health. Ready to get started? Put on your shoes and go for that first walk.
