Hello scott,
As an orthopedic surgeon, I've had my fair share of encounters with joints that have seen better days. But fear not, for I come bearing wisdom—(some humorous), that is gained from a combination of my own mistakes with my body and my orthopedic training and experience!
It's time to spill the beans on the not-so-secret secrets of slowing down Father Time himself. Picture this: a life where your body doesn't creak like an old, rusty door and your daily stress levels are not through the roof! How, you ask? Well, here's the scoop straight from the surgeon's mouth:
-
Avoid those pesky micro traumas. Remember, your body is not a punching bag for life’s curveballs. Whether it's exercising, working, or even sitting properly (yes, that's a thing!), be kind to your joints. Treat them like royalty, or at least like your favorite houseplant—water them with care!
-
The holy trinity of a long, healthy life: a diet straight out of the Mediterranean dreamscape, exercise that's just right for you (no need to turn into a gym superhero overnight), and yes, you guessed it, meditation. Take a breather, find your zen, and let those worries drift away like dandelion seeds in the wind.
In a nutshell, folks, that's the magic formula! By eating well, moving just enough (think dancing, a walk or jog around the block - not the Olympics), and finding your inner peace, (or at least a little sanity time), you're on the fast track to putting the brakes on aging. Who knew it was this simple, right? No need for ancient secrets or potions—just good ol' common sense!
