The Art of Growing Younger

This article was extracted from my full newsletter, “Growing Younger Isn't as Crazy as It Sounds!” You can read the complete article at InnerTalk.com.

Years ago, Eldon and I conducted an informal experiment that produced some results I still find rather extraordinary.

Eldon had been researching the effects that our beliefs, expectations, and perceptions can have on the aging process. That work eventually led to something we called Quantum Younging, and we invited a group of volunteers to work with the technology and report back to us about their experiences. Some of what they told us was remarkable.

One woman started going gray at 27, but after participating in our experiment, the graying simply stopped. She also told us that her weight, which had fluctuated considerably for years, stabilized. A scar on her face from an accident when she was 17 faded until it was barely noticeable, and she reported that the wrinkles on her face had disappeared.

She wasn't the only one. Another customer told us, “My hair is thicker. My skin looks younger. I have a younger attitude. I play on the slide with my grandchild. I even chased a robber down the street!”

Of course, correlation is not causation. I would never promise that someone using our younging programs will experience these kinds of physical changes. But there is no denying the fact that, over the years, we have kept hearing remarkable stories after people use our InnerTalk younging programs.

What Are We Teaching Ourselves About Aging?

Growing older should be about putting another candle on the cake and celebrating. It should not be about taking on board all the ideas, limitations, and worst experiences that other people have had and assuming they must inevitably become ours.

Unfortunately, messages about aging are almost impossible to avoid. They're on television, in advertisements, and the subject of countless jokes. Friends and family repeat them too: memory goes as you get older; you don't have the same energy anymore; you need to slow down. Eventually, we can start repeating those messages ourselves.

If you accept that memory loss is simply part of getting older, you have tacitly given yourself permission to forget things. If you accept that getting older means slowing down, you give yourself permission to become less active. Move less and you may lose strength and flexibility, until the consequences begin to look like proof that the original belief was right.

Belief influences behavior. Behavior produces consequences. And those consequences can reinforce the belief.

Train the Beliefs You Want to Keep

We know that older bodies can respond to training. People can build muscle and strength well into later life when they continue challenging their bodies. Our beliefs deserve the same deliberate attention.

Just as someone who wants to maintain a strong body has to keep challenging and training that body, those of us who want to maintain younger, stronger expectations of ourselves need to deliberately challenge and train our beliefs.

That's where InnerTalk makes the work considerably easier. You can play a program while working, reading, relaxing, or going about your day, allowing healthier beliefs and expectations to be repeated until they begin replacing limiting messages that may have been reinforced for years.

Instead of continually absorbing the message that age means decline, our younging programs were created to reinforce very different expectations about vitality, capability, health, memory, appearance, attitude, and what growing older is supposed to mean.

Forever Young

Book cover for 'Forever Young: An InnerTalk Mindfulness Training Collection' by Eldon Taylor, featuring an active blonde woman in a gray tank top and white pants jogging on a beach alongside a smiling man in a light blue shirt and beige shorts under a clear blue sky.

Forever Young isn't simply one program telling you to think young. It brings together nine complementary programs using four different InnerTalk technologies because aging isn't something we experience in just one way.

The different programs address vitality and enthusiasm for life, health and well-being, memory, accepting change, physical self-image, and the expectations we hold about ourselves as the years pass. Together, they were compiled to create a much broader younging environment, reinforcing beliefs that support remaining engaged, capable, mentally sharp, healthy, enthusiastic, and excited about what comes next.

The objective isn't to deny your chronological age. I see no reason to deny mine. I simply don't want the number to become an instruction manual.

I don't want to go backward either. There is far too much wisdom, experience, and perspective that I would have to give up. I want to take all of that forward with me.

So by all means, keep adding the candles. Just don't let anyone else tell you what they are supposed to mean.
