There is one thing that all of us have in common. We are all growing and changing, and constantly. And while this is a great thing and can be a very nice mark of wisdom, there are other things associated with growing older that can be a little bit difficult to face, and sometimes even scary.

As we age, our bodies become less capable of healing at the same rate of speed and we don’t build muscle in quite the same way. We can become susceptible to diseases more easily, and over time we may find ourselves having more and more chronic aches and pains. While these things have become a commonly accepted aspect of aging, however, there are some aspects to this that are actually preventable, and there are ways that we can work to slow down the natural process of aging and prevent ourselves from going further down a slippery slope! All we need is the knowledge and the motivation to keep at it.
