Motivation:
Fighting against a sense of despair will only make it worse. Instead of letting despair feed on itself, do something positive and proactive to break the pattern. When you become angry about being angry, that will only make your anger more destructive. The more intensely you feel your frustration, the more frustrated you will become.
The way out is to quickly and decisively break the pattern. Realize that the negative momentum is building and do something so completely unrelated that you knock it off track. Don't make your negativity stronger by fighting against it. Instead, make it irrelevant and powerless by turning your attention and putting your energy in a radically different direction.
Be outrageously and unreasonably positive. Be funny and creative and ridiculous and joyful all at the same time.
Smile, laugh and be enthusiastic about life even when you have no reason to be. By breaking the negative pattern, you'll create many great reasons to smile.
Healthy Lifestyle:
Preventing aging of the skin, body and mind is big business in the United States. People are willing to pay hundreds and even thousands of dollars for procedures that smooth their skin and get rid of wrinkles. Some people choose to take supplements that promise a leaner body or a quicker, more agile mind. In reality, aging is a natural process that everyone goes through. Instead of taking drugs or having risky procedures, eating the right foods can help slow aging's effects.
Salmon
According to holistic physician Dr. Andrew Weil, the omega-3 fatty acids found in salmon contribute to its anti-aging effects. Dr. Weil states on his website that the fatty acids found in salmon can sharpen brain function and help prevent memory loss as people age. The Mayo Clinic also says that fatty acids in salmon--and other fatty fish such as herring and tuna--protect the heart from diseases that occur with aging.

Olive Oil
Using olive oil in cooking and on foods instead of butter or margarine can help slow some of the effects of aging. More magazine states that the fat in olive oil increases the body's ability to absorb fat-soluble vitamins such as Vitamin D as well as cancer-fighting chemicals found in plants. The fatty acids found in olive oil also decrease inflammation in the body, which is common with aging and can manifest itself in puffy skin, arthritis or even heart disease. Drizzling olive oil on salads, in soups or on grilled meat may improve skin texture and appearance. According to the Mayo Clinic, the monounsaturated fat in olive oil helps lower LDL cholesterol, or "bad" cholesterol.
Broccoli
As people age, their bodies continually take in toxins every day from polluted air, chemicals, nearby smokers or unhealthy foods. These toxins can all speed the aging process. More magazine states that a plant chemical found in broccoli, called sulforaphane, speeds the function of enzymes in the body. In doing so, sulforaphane helps the body get rid of toxins faster. More magazine also states that the fresher the broccoli is, the more sulforaphane it contains, leading to more potent anti-aging effects.
Acai
Acai fruit is a healthy berry that comes from a palm tree in the Amazon. It has a rich flavor, which tastes like a cross between chocolate and berries. Acai can be found in many health food stores, usually in the form of dried acai berries or acai juice. Anti-aging specialist Dr. Nicholas Perricone says that acai is full of cancer-fighting antioxidants and amino acids that promote cell renewal. Perricone states that the essential fatty acids in acai also smooth membranes in the skin, reduce insulin levels and decrease inflammation in the body, one of the major causes of aging. The Mayo Clinic states that acai berries are a soild source for fiber, antioxidants and fats to help the heart.
Exercise:
How to Make Exercise a Habit
.jpg?id=5338" alt="" /> No matter how much you try to make it fun, and no matter what the experts tell you about how great you will feel, when you first start regular aerobic exercise, you will probably dislike it. Developing this healthy living habit takes time and effort. In the beginning it will be difficult, and time may move much more slowly than you'd like. You must force yourself to stick to your routine during this stage. A common pitfall is to forgo exercise on days when you feel tired and lethargic because you think you do not have enough energy for it. A secret, known to those who have become habitual exercisers, is that effort creates energy. Do not wait for energy to come when you are tired; create it by expending effort. You can easily prove to yourself that this principle works. Just try it.
The inner voice that says you don't have time for exercise is lying. You can make time for it once you realize its priority in an overall program of preventive health maintenance and healthy living. In fact, regular exercise, by giving you more energy and a greater sense of well-being, will help you work more efficiently, so that you use your time better and have more to spare. I promise you that eventually you will move beyond the initial stage into a different relationship with aerobic activity. It will make you feel good both physically and mentally, at first after you finish exercising and later while you are doing it as well. Days without exercise will not feel quite right or complete. Then you will know that your good habit has begun to take solid form, and the chance of your abandoning the program will be much diminished.

Food as Medicine
Hemp seeds are a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids, highly digestible protein, and minerals including phosphorus, magnesium, zinc, copper and manganese. They are also gluten-free, so will not trigger symptoms of celiac disease.
Yuzu, like most citrus, is a rich source of vitamin C and other antioxidants. Yuzu can be a valuable source of "C" in colder climates, because it is more cold-hardy than other forms of citrus fruit.
