Everyone knows that vitality is a person’s energy and cheerfulness over a long period of time. But nowadays it is increasingly being replaced by chronic stress, fatigue, complete lack of strength and apathy. Inaction in this case is equal to neuroses, depression and other diseases, which will be almost impossible to cope with without doctors and medications. If you are still at the first, easy stage, then you can easily help yourself. A person is not only a body, but also a spirit. And complete harmony is possible only by balancing the physiological and psychological aspects. How to increase your vitality?
Raising vitality with natural remedies
Rhodiola. The list of wonderful properties of this herb is endless. The main ones are raising vitality, strengthening the immune system, healing diseases of an oncological nature, reducing inflammatory processes in women, normalizing the menstrual cycle, etc.
Ginseng. The most famous remedy for increasing vitality. Action: increasing mental and physical performance several times, helping with gastrointestinal disorders, treating cardiovascular diseases.
Vitamin mixture. Consists of dried fruits, raisins, walnuts, dried apricots (300 g each, in equal parts), two lemons and honey. Pass the ingredients through a meat grinder, add lemon juice and honey, then put them in the refrigerator and take a tablespoon every morning.
Beetroot juice.
Advice from psychologists to improve tone
Experts do not recommend restoring vitality with alcohol. A short-term improvement in mood and a surge of energy quickly pass, leaving behind emptiness, loss of strength, and often depression. If you feel constant fatigue, drowsiness, frequent colds and other “joys” that indicate a decrease in immunity, it is worth paying attention to the simple pleasures of life.
Communicate more with friends, neighbors, colleagues, even if you don’t feel like it right now. Gradually, the friendly atmosphere will have a beneficial effect, the spirit and body will perk up.
How to cope with a panic attack
Coffee and tea
Drink 3-5 cups of tea and coffee a day to tone up. In the evening, brew a herbal mixture, for example, with lemon balm, motherwort, valerian, yarrow, to get a good night's sleep. Poor sleep depletes the body and nervous system.
Cheerful laughter
Laugh more often. Sparkling humor and laughter have a positive effect not only on the psycho-emotional background, but also on the physical state of the body. At the same time, the hormone of joy is produced, which stimulates vitality. The immune system is more successful in resisting illness and loss of strength.
Hug your loved ones as often as possible. Hugs help the body recover and prolong life. The reason for this is the very useful hormone of joy, reproduced as a result of pleasant sensations and pleasure from the touches of loved ones.
Sport
Play sports. Moderate physical activity lifts your mood and improves your appearance. It turns out positive squared. One of the effective ways to increase vitality is a set of leg exercises and swimming.
Breathe correctly. Deep, calm, rhythmic breathing helps to get rid of toxins, which means strengthening the immune system.
Inhale pleasant smells. Aromas have a beneficial effect on a person: they evoke pleasure, desires, calm, and inspire. The smell of roses improves mood, eucalyptus tones. Lavender, orange, mint give peace and help fight depression, stimulate mental activity.
Life tone will wither without positivity. Surround yourself with flowers - bright, beautiful, they lift your spirits and inspire optimism.
To regain your strength, feel your energy again, learn to enjoy every little thing in life. Find yourself and do what you love - a source of pleasure. Analyze the negative aspects of your life, think about whether something can be changed. If not, take it for granted, but influence what is within your control. Consider failures as experience and use them in the future. And don’t doubt, you will succeed!

HIGH LIFE TONE
What does a person with high vitality ? Manic and charming. A sight for sore eyes. And also - “convincing” us that a high tone of life is worth making it a priority. People with high vitality are divided into two categories: those who are genetically gifted with tone and those who know how to properly maintain it. Long youth, health, and constant demand are “hidden” in high tone This is the nectar of life, in all eras and times. If this hasn’t convinced you yet, let’s go check it out.
"SHARKS" OF TONUS
Joan Collins (84 years old) and Christopher Plummer (88 years old) are ideal “carriers” of a high tone of life. It seems like a million years have passed since the fiery Christopher Plummer sparkled in the cult film The Sound of Music. And in 2020, Plummer will compete for an Oscar with the film “All the Money in the World.” At the casting, he easily beat out men younger than himself. He replaced Kevin Spacey (58 years old), who was originally cast for this role. We'll be watching for the Best Supporting Actor nomination! Thirty years of difference between Plummer and Spacey - like the wind blew away! The synthesis of talent and high vitality is always a non-competitive asset.
Joan Collins has her own high flights, both literally and figuratively. Enjoys frequent intercontinental flights. At the end of December 2020, she shone on stage at the Dubai Theater in a “one-woman show.” She kept the large hall in suspense for several hours. And How! But before that, she “caught” a rare strain of influenza. But - “The show must go on! Nothing should stop him! I went up on stage, my ears were ringing, I was coughing, but everything went great. It doesn’t matter that I returned home like a Victorian lady, on the verge of fainting: my legs were shaking like spaghetti, my ribs were hurting from coughing, my weakness was extreme... But there was Christmas ahead, which was inspiring!” Collins throws motivational dope at us .
The latest film "The Time of Their Lives", released in 2020, shows her in an unexpected perspective - a bold and strong role. And what can we say about the business that Joan is systematically developing!
Read more about Joan Collins below. And now - about the “secrets” of a high tone of life . You should know it!
DEEP DEEP
Let's see how this “nectar of life” - high tone looks biologically at cellular depths. Only there can it be “unpacked”, studied and picked up. And yes, you need to love this depth. I write a lot about her, and will continue to write. There is never too much depth. She is our “magic” key to wisely eliminating negative life scenarios. To the depth, to the depth, to the depth...
Let's watch!
Over time, our cells break down, primarily from eating the wrong foods. However, they have the ability to make “repairs” for themselves. To do this, we were provided with updating and repair tools. The cell is repaired many times. But at some point, “repair” is no longer possible: the cell is completely “leaky,” and then it commits “suicide,” scientifically called apoptosis. And in its place, a new adult cell is created from reserve cells.
Fabulous! But as we grow older, the repair capabilities of our cell decrease and break down themselves. And this is the beginning of aging. This breakdown “turns on” another breakdown - the mechanisms that maintain homeostasis - the constancy of the internal environment of the body - break down. Homeostasis is our “magic” and the most important place. We are vulnerable in this place. Homeostasis cannot be lost sight of. In other words, homeostasis is the internal climate of our body, its constant, unwavering good weather.
Without this, the high tone of life and its “magic” effects are impossible! The “weather” of homeostasis affects our hormones, genes, proteins, vitamin absorption, energy, and a lot of other things. It is very important that the weather be steadily “summer, sunny, blissful, with spreading bliss.” Then the cells will break much less often. This “weather” is ensured only by a 100% healthy lifestyle: zero refined sugar, zero trans fats, more plant proteins, whole grain cereals and other benefits. Zero is zero. No “sometimes” or “a little bit”. Cigarettes, alcohol and fizzy drinks - no comment. Although there are people who believe that if you exclude alcohol and cigarettes, this is already a “healthy lifestyle”.
Explain this to homeostasis, cellular “repair” tools and vitality ! From the cellular depths there will be the same answer - aging begins with a breakdown of self-regulation mechanisms, that is, homeostasis . Aging is the accumulation of breakdowns in systems for maintaining homeostasis . A small puzzle: two multidirectional processes take place in us at the same time - “repair” of cells and renewal - on the one hand. And degradation and aging - on the other. Understanding this wondrous oddity, we can win an additional 20-30 years of high vitality, freshness and freedom from diseases, especially age-related ones. This is not difficult to learn if you think about it from time to time. Visualize in metaphors: for example, homeostasis is radiant weather “without a breeze.” Our brain loves metaphors, it accepts them faster.
IT'S NOT FAST
Without a 100% healthy lifestyle, our cellular “repair” tools begin to break down (closer to 40 years old - plus/minus). This means that the weather at cellular depth is “winds, hurricanes, earthquakes...”. The tone of life decreases, we begin to age... Reformatting the climate, establishing stable “weather” for homeostasis and tools for cellular “repair” is not a quick process, but how exciting! We launch the process of managing “magic” - we establish a balanced “weather” in the body and a high tone of life for decades. And yes, we are delivering a preventive strike against potential diseases!
The doctor won't tell us about this. Well, maybe rare. Or have you often heard from doctors about the importance of homeostasis and high vitality ? The doctor himself is aging and sick, like most people. There are a lot of studies on the lifestyle of doctors. Even in the most developed countries the statistics are sad. I'll tell you about this in subsequent posts.
MIXED SPEED TRACKS
We need to figure out in advance what “scenario” our aging is going to follow. It's possible. Every day the body sends us a lot of signals. If we pay attention, we will notice them. For example, our different organs age at different times. So, our heart may still be young, but our liver may already be old; the brain may fall into dementia, but the reproductive system is stable; the skin may be sagging, and the pancreas may be in shiny shape. There are a lot of inconsistencies.
For now, we cannot yet go to an anti-aging center to get tested for a full test on the rate of aging. Of course, the doctor will give us individual indicators on biomarkers of aging based on the tests, but this will be very superficial and approximate! Current biomarkers of aging, and even geroprotectors, all this is not yet a solution. And we know what the solution is. It is accessible and feasible, but the brain and soul want something else.
"TWILIGHT" OF THE BRAIN
The spiritual part of us has the tone of life Our spiritual world also ages and loses its high vitality . Interest in oneself disappears, indifference comes to one’s future, to the world as a whole. Dementia has many versions. The number of people in the world with different versions of age-related dementia has been growing rapidly in recent years. Why longevity if there is “twilight” and “frost” in the brain?
Any function of our body has its own adaptive response. That is, when a function is in demand, it is in good shape, it “tries” to meet the request. If we want to be in demand, our functions adjust to this desire and become more toned . If we are tuned in to extinction, the function begins to degrade. This applies to mental functions, inspiration, intuition, and feelings.
It is believed that character deteriorates with age. No, it's not the character that's deteriorating. He's always been like this. But the functions of “containing” bad things are reduced. Conventionally, these are the “brakes” of character that have aged, which at a younger age were still in good shape and strong enough to hold back bad impulses. This feature has aged and no longer curbs the flow of destructive content.
Our surroundings and the collective behavior of people especially reduce the tone of our mental world. Setting yourself up for retirement is a bomb for high tone , unless retirement is seen as a wonderful stage for creative experiments, business projects and other creative, meaningful undertakings. There are a lot of studies: after retiring with the intention of doing nothing, the body’s condition sharply deteriorates, and the aging process accelerates.
WIT
There is another mass of research showing: people who continue to be active in the third age remain in excellent shape and excellent tone . They form meaning in life and motivation for themselves, they live in a “flow” where there is some degree of uncertainty and challenge. It has been proven: a lifestyle where there is no uncertainty and challenge reduces tone, stimulates decrepitness and depression. There are no unexpected joys that come from victories. No dopamine stimulus.
Without a high tone of the spiritual world, a long life is like a hopeless twilight. High mental tone is a continuous development, regardless of age. This is going beyond the limits of experience, this is a constant stay in some degree of stress. Only under such conditions does our body change its functional systems in order to eliminate what destroys and extinguishes us.
That is, our body responds to the task - to avoid a decrease in the quality of life, or vice versa - to improve the quality of life. If there is such a desire, the tone is mobilized. If it is not there, the tone will weaken and fade away.
Dementia does not come to people who are not afraid of uncertainty and challenges. Learning always embraces uncertainty and challenge. Therefore, the wise “silver” is now beginning to learn. People in the third age discover something new.
HAPPINESS FROM THE VIEW OF BEAUTY
Joan Collins: “You know, I think one of the reasons I look the way I look is because I don’t have poison in my soul. There is no hatred and envy. I can be considered a bitch because I’m witty, and for some reason wit is often considered bitchy.”
“What else am I doing? By writing. Wrote 16 books. Of these, five were about how to create beauty, three were biographies, five were novels, and one was motivational. I’m going to write more.”
“I am actively involved in trusteeship - I built a hospice for terminally ill children, Shooting Star Chase. This work is very important to me. And, of course, work in the theater, filming and my business - the production of beauty products."
“In my latest film, I am not glamorous. This is an unexpected side of me. You will see me in gray stretched trousers, dangling socks, and a shabby raincoat. We need to try something new...”
Gina Lollobrigida (90 years old). An ocean of high tone. He knows for sure that he will live more than 100 years. I didn’t get hung up on the beauty that was gone. Has many plans. He is involved in sculpture and charity work. Travels a lot and gives lectures. Organizes exhibitions, competitions, provides mentoring, and does a lot of other things today. Worthy of a separate post.
The high tone of life has many levels of elaboration. But invariably behind this there is cellular biology in combination with the spiritual world. Only such a symbiosis gives real results.
How to raise your vitality. Physiological methods
Strict adherence to the daily routine. Get up no later than eight o'clock, go to bed no later than eleven.
Fifteen-minute exercises in the morning after a glass of water on an empty stomach. After charging, take a contrast (cool, warm...) shower.
Moderate physical activity (swimming, running, etc.) – three to four times a week. Find out how to choose the right running shoes.
Rejection of bad habits.
Healthy breakfast in the morning. A mandatory rule for “recharging” the body and increasing blood sugar levels.
Physical activity. Do not grow into your work chair or home sofa. Get up and stretch. There are many options - from a quick run to the store for toothpaste that has run out, to a set of activities that increase energy.
Caffeine withdrawal . Coffee lowers blood sugar, accordingly, the level of required energy drops, and the body requires sweets to recharge (which also will not bring cheerfulness). Replace coffee with green tea, juice or water.
Don't eat at night.
After a hard day, take a fragrant bath , after adding sea salt, aromatic oil (for example, lavender) or pine extract .
Good sound sleep is one of the components of energy. To do this, you need to ventilate the room before going to bed, take a bath and drink warm milk at night.
Nutrition
Start with nutrition. The tone of the body is primarily affected by the food consumed. Limit yourself to flour products, especially baked goods. Give up coffee, giving preference to healthier drinks. Fill your daily menu with fruits and vegetables. If you're craving something sweet, snack on dates and try adding honey instead of sugar. Set aside one day a week to do a fasting day.
Psychological methods of raising vitality
Life tone also largely depends on a person’s mood, as well as on his beliefs and attitude towards life. It is clear that we cannot smile all the time, that white stripes are replaced by black ones, and, unfortunately, not everything is in our hands. But still, a simpler attitude towards life and cultivating optimism is the most correct way to raise and stabilize your vitality. What psychological methods exist to increase your energy?
Don’t let your and other people’s problems pass through your heart. It is a fragile organ.
Find your own method to combat depression. Everyone has their own - meditative practices, yoga, fishing, writing, etc.
Love yourself. Allow yourself at least sometimes those joys that you refuse due to work, children, circumstances.
Set goals for yourself and work hardto implement your plans. Start with a small goal. For example, by increasing your income by ten percent or by quitting smoking.
Fill your life regularly with new experiences . Change your lifestyle, your circle of acquaintances, the decor in your apartment, your wardrobe and your diet. Try new dishes, travel to new cities, meet people.
Learn to enjoy life. Look for the positives even in the obvious negatives. Has your bus left? And the next one is only in an hour? This means you have time to sit in a cafe with a cup of coffee or take a walk and lose an extra centimeter from your waist. Burnt chicken in the oven? Order pizza, the kids will be happy.
For life to begin to change for the better, and for your vitality to become your second self, learn to be happy and active. Print out your funny photos and hang them on the wall in frames, go to cinemas for premieres , buy yourself new beautiful things and contemplate the beauty . Do not give in to despondency or even the thought that you have run out of strength. There is always strength!The most important thing is your attitude and desire.
Stronger sex
How to increase body tone in men:
Sports activities. A man of any age must be in good shape so that he can, if necessary, defend himself, his own family and his principles in life. Consequently, representatives of the stronger sex are obliged to devote time to sports and physical activities. For this purpose, it is not necessary to go to the gym or fitness center every day. It is enough to have a couple of sports equipment at home and the desire to do physical exercise. A morning run will perfectly complement this hobby.
Proper nutrition is a very simple answer to the question of how to improve body tone. You can find reasons for a long time, complain about habits, lack of money and lack of time to prepare normal food. Or you can open any cookbook and start preparing healthy and wholesome food that will help increase your tone and normalize your metabolism.
Love and sexual relations. Have you really forgotten that the most charming and lovely person in the world lives next to you? A man is obliged to demonstrate to his lady and himself that he is still strong in spirit, brave, courageous, in general, the best. It's time to remember the romantic evenings and walks that you both enjoyed so much. Give your wife a romantic date, buy a bouquet of flowers, invite her to the cinema, or just walk around the city in the evening, holding hands. This little adventure will give you both many pleasant moments. Love and the resumption of an active sex life are the most pleasant answer to the question of how to increase the tone of the body.
Quitting alcohol and smoking. The older a man gets, the more he must worry about his own health. Remember the common truth that alcohol in large doses and nicotine destroy all body systems. If at a young age recovery is easy, then after forty men with each drinking session lose their natural strength, which is no longer renewed.
Put things in order, because this is another answer to the question of how to increase the tone of the body. A successful man is always cheerful. To achieve success in your own business, you must get in order and prepare for the opportunities that fate may provide. A study conducted in the USA in a group of men found that representatives of the stronger sex who achieve progress in their own affairs are 57% more successful than their colleagues who stopped striving for more. Therefore, the time has come to think about personal affairs and prospects.
Vitamins
If you have a weakened immune system, start taking vitamins. Even the most ordinary ascorbic acid will help raise your tone. It is good to eat sea buckthorn, ginger or ginseng. Herbal teas made from rosehip, nettle and St. John's wort perfectly saturate the body with vitamins.
Walking in the fresh air will help you get rid of the metropolis syndrome. It is especially useful to walk near ponds or in the forest. Nature will saturate you with a colossal charge of energy and you will quickly become toned. It's great if you play sports in the fresh air. You don't need to put too much stress on yourself, but a light jog or simple gymnastic exercises will bring you extraordinary benefits.
