In today’s day and age, everyone is obsessed with trying to find the magical formula that will keep us looking and feeling younger, for longer.
Of course, there is no magical pill or cream that can turn us twenty-one again, but there are lot of products, surgeries and lifestyles that can shave off a few years, and make us feel better for it.
Stay hydrated — When dehydrated, your body will take the water from you skin tissue, making it look sullen, dry, and a lot less elastic. By simply upping your intake of water consumption, you will start to experience a reduced number of wrinkles and dark circles, as well as feeling less bloated, and if you are lucky, some weight loss. People are starting to share their experiences online, claiming water consumption is changing their lives for the better, and due to its inexpensive nature and natural state, what’s the harm in trying it out yourself?
Exercise — It’s difficult to find the time and energy to exercise, especially after a long day of work. However, getting to the gym is the hardest part, and once you are there, clad in gym gear, clambering onto an exercise bike or cross-trainer, you will soon feel the benefits. Keeping your body lean ensures less loose skin and more muscle definition, allowing the appearance of a younger looking physique.
Vaginoplasty — This highly requested cosmetic procedure provides vaginal rejuvenation, meaning you can gain both sexual satisfaction and restore a youthful appearance. There are many experts out there who can consult on your options and provide information on such surgeries, such as David Ghozland. This small procedure offers quick results as it takes only a mere 60 to 90 minutes, with a short recovery.
Botox-free body enhancers — If done correctly, Botox can work and take a few years off your life. However, if the procedure is botched, then you can be left with unsightly mistakes that are difficult or impossible to get rid of. For some, the gamble is worth it, but for lesser risk takers, you are left wondering what other options are there for you try. Due to the advancements in beauty regimens, there is a wealth of more natural procedures for you to choose from.
Change in diet — Diet is important. If you are lacking a balanced plate of food, then your body and mind will suffer the consequences. A high carb diet will leave you feeling sluggish, depressed, tired, and lacking in concentration; it can also cause a few extra inches across your waistline, dry skin, and limp hair. By eating plenty of fruits, vegetables, healthy proteins and important oils, your skin and hair will glow, feeling refreshed, and your body more toned, less bloated, and energised.
By keeping your body feeling young, you will surely start feeling it mentally. People say, you only seem as old as you act, so if you eat plenty of fuel-filled foods and increase your cardio and strength, while undergoing trial-and-tested, simple procedures, your body will be thanking you for it in the long run.

Their answers can be random and in the moment or they can be aligned with the current article they have written. In that way, and as a team, we hope to encourage and motivate each other, thus inspiring you to Get All A’s.

I’m proud of living my dream of an alternative lifestyle on a small holding surrounded by animals. My dream is to make enough time to write and paint more.
4. Of course, we all have imperfections, or so we think. In truth, we are all perfectly imperfect. What are your not-so-perfect ways? Likewise, what imperfections and quirks create who you are–your Identity?
I love peace and quiet and ironically that’s not so easy to achieve in a world filled with people.
