Summary
As our bodies and minds age, daily habits can cause pain, depression, anxiety, and weakness, shortening our lives. The good news is that it's not too late to undo some of the damage and recover with restorative exercise and nutrient-dense foods to live the longest, healthiest, and pain-free life possible. Restorative exercise focuses on body awareness, relaxation, and gentle movement to reduce mental and physical stress, while nutrient-dense foods like papaya, salmon, and avocados help calm the stress response and improve mental focus.
