The human body will age no matter what we do to hold back the clock, but there are things that we can do as we get older to feel younger. Follow these suggestions to defy Father Time and feel your best, no matter what your age.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Step1
Get enough sleep to recharge from the day. Getting at least seven hours of sleep every night can help you feel rejuvenated and less tired throughout the day. Being rested will definitely help you feel younger as the years roll on.
Step2
Drink for youth. Instead of reaching for a calorie-packed soda, drink water. The body needs at the very least 8 glasses of water per day. Not only does hydration help you from feeling fatigued, it helps the body to flush out toxins throughout the day. Coffee and soda containing caffeine can increase bone density loss, which happens as we age naturally.
Step3
Exercise. The human body will begin to change as we reach our mid-thirties and beyond. With exercise you can help keep the heart, muscles, and bones healthy and active. A healthy body will help you feel younger than your years.
Step4
Take supplements. Even the healthiest of diets don't include all of the body's needs every day. Take vitamin supplements every day to help maintain the nutrients that your body will need as you age.
Step5
Laugh. When people are jovial and enjoy life, they not only feel younger they look younger. Find joy and laughter in life, and refuse to get into a mindset that you are older than you want to be. Smile every day and laugh. Laughter is truly the best medicine.
Step6
Care for your skin. Use sunscreen to help keep the sun's rays from damaging your skin and causing premature wrinkles. When skin is properly cared for, and nourished through out your life time, it will hold its youthful glow much longer.
Step7
Eat for life. It is true that you are what you eat. If you spend more time in fast food joints than enjoying salads and grains, your body will feel sluggish and older. Eating a healthy diet will not only keep your body healthy, it will help you feel younger because you won't be weighed down by excess fat and grease.
