More from Klatz and Goldman’s “Stopping the Clock” the first book that I read about anti-aging and rejuvenation. Yesterday, I presented 15 reasons to exercise. Today, because exercise is the closest thing to an anti-aging pill that exists, I am listing more reasons to exercise from their terrific book. Additional reasons include:
1. Helps improve short-term memory
2. Sharpen dynamic vision and controls glaucoma
3. Reduces risk of developing type 2- non insulin dependent diabetes
4. Reduces anxiety
5. Assists in quitting smoking
6. Slows the rate of joint degeneration-osteoarthritis
7. Enhances sexual desire, performance and satisfaction
8. Helps in the management of stress
9. Improves quality of sleep
10. Reduces risk of developing colon cancer
11. Reduces risk of developing prostate cancer
12. Reduces risk of developing breast cancer
13. Reduces risk of developing stroke
14. Reduces susceptibility to coronary thrombosis-a clot in the artery that supplies the heart with blood
15. Helps alleviate depression
Goldman and Klatz have given 30 good reasons for exercise. Additional reasons to follow. If you are not exercising, I am sure that you will eventually find some reasons to exercise. If you are exercising, hats off to you. Remember, even if you exercised when younger, it is like that pill because you have to continue to do it to reap the benefits.
Now, for “Indian Code of Ethics” however, I am unable to quote the source.
1. Each morning when you wake and each evening before sleeping, give thanks for life, for the good things the Creator has given you and others, and the opportunity to grow a little more each day. Give thanks for yesterday’s thoughts and actions and for the courage and strength to be a better person.
2. Respect: respect means “to feel or show honor or esteem for someone or something; to consider the well-being of, or treat someone or something with courtesy.” Showing respect is a basic law of life.
a. treat every person, infant to elder with respect at all times
b.special respect should be given to elders, parents, teachers, and community leaders
C. do not touch anything that belongs to someone else-especially sacred objects without permission or an understanding between you
D, do not make anyone feel “put down” by you; avoid hurting others hearts as you would avoid the deadly poison
E. speak in a soft voice especially when you are with elders, strangers, or others who should be respected
F. never walks between people who are having a conversation
G. show deep respect for the beliefs and religions of others
H. listen with courtesy to what others say, even if you feel what they are saying is worthless
More to follow.Take all that is relevant.
I received this pass out from a continuing education class “The Psychology of Aging” back in 2003. Stay tuned.
