Here's how:
- Do you usually make new year's resolutions, or are you "above" such gimmickery? I recommend you rethink and consider these 2 ideas:
- Make 2015 memorable
- Make sure you experience things in the coming year that will make you remember what you did in 2015 forever
- Make sure you instantly have an answer for the question "What did you do in 2015?"
- What did you do in 2014? Hurry up; you only have a couple of days left to fill your quota for the year.
- Strong experiences and feeling create memory milestones and take up more brain space. That makes your life seem longer and fuller in retrospect, rather than having rushed by faster and faster. Check out more brain science at this podcast.
- Stretch your psoas, doing the couch stretch regularly (at least 5 minutes a month, but 2 minutes a day is better)
- If you only do one mobility exercise, just hit the psoas regularly
- You'll walk more youthfully and with power, balance and confidence
- You'll preempt slouching and even hernias and possibly reduce any Restless Legs syndrome you might have
and as an added bonus (too small and easy for a resolution; just try it anyway):
Let bacteria take over your face
Did you read my post about research on rubbing armpit bacteria in the face and not using anything other than water to wash your face? It's alright, you can do it after this.
I stopped washing my face on October 1, 2014. Since then I've only used water instead of various gels, scrubs and soap (!). I got the idea here and decided to try it. Actually, sometimes I even grab some armpit bacteria (as in the clinical trial) and rub them in my face, before rinsing with water.
Three months later I couldn't be happier with my decision. My skin looks and feel healthy and resilient. I don't get outbreaks from binge drinking and junk food. I feel safe in not having to always splash water on the after getting up and before going to bed (pre-October I washed and scrubbed thoroughly twice a day [three times daily on gym days]). And if I'm to believe the scientists my skin looks much better in a microscope than before (the face equivalent of having a body that looks good naked)
