The Power of Inner Mobility: The Ancient Secret to Staying Young

It is well-known that aging is inevitable, but how you age highly depends on you. That is to say, you may be 70, yet feel and look 40. Likewise, a 26-year-old may look and feel 50. The difference lies in your everyday habits and behaviors.

In today's article, we will discuss in detail how you can turn aging in your favor—aging backward, beautifully, and above all, healthily. Let's jump right in!

Inner Mobility: The Ancient Secret to Staying Young

What Exactly Is Inner Mobility?

Inner Mobility is the movement of the body's core regions that supports each breath's ability to sustain wellness. It involves the spine acting as a central part of the body, connecting the four main cavities, holding organs responsible for maintaining health, avoiding illness, and determining lifespan. 

How Does Inner Mobility Help You Live Longer?

Here's how keeping your inner Mobility strong can promote longevity:

1. Improved Circulation and Heart Health: According to scientific studies, spinal flexibility determines the aorta stiffness—the biggest blood vessel in the body. Aortic stiffness puts a strain on the heart and reduces blood flow. On the other hand, improving your inner Mobility or spinal flexibility reduces the pressure on your heart to pump blood to every cell of the body, keeping them healthy and reducing your risk of heart disease and other health problems.
2.  Improved Brain function: Working on your Inner Mobility will also help your brain age better, become more focused, and prevent cognitive decline. According to science, spinal flexibility enhances the flow of cerebrospinal fluid, which protects the brain and spinal cord from injury and provides them with nutrients.
3. Reduces Your Stress: Chronic stress accelerates aging. Improved spinal flexibility or Inner Mobility activates the autonomic nervous system, which significantly affects how your body handles stress. When your spine moves more freely, it helps trigger the relaxation response, calming your body down. 
4.  Enhanced Multi-Organ Function: With youthful Inner mobility, each organ, including your skin, lungs, heart, spleen, liver, kidneys, etc., is well perfused and functions better, contributing to a longer, healthier life. 

Science-Backed Tips to Improve Inner Mobility And Age Better. 

• Fitness Training: 

Fitness training supports health by maintaining strength, flexibility, structural integrity, organ function, and tissue well-being. Regular exercise improves movement of the spine and rib cage to allow full Diaphragmatic travel, which will improve internal organ function, overall health, and longevity.  This includes aerobic fitness, strength training, core exercises, balance training, flexibility, and stretching. 

• Practice Deep Breathing:

 Incorporate deep, diaphragmatic breathing exercises into your daily routine to enhance lung capacity and relaxation.

• Eat Healthy

Cut down on sugar, processed foods, and alcohol. Research shows that a Mediterranean diet which contains healthy foods like fruits, veggies, healthy fats, and whole grains helps to manage weight and provides the essential nutrients needed to nourish the body and live longer.

•  Have Adequate Amounts  of Sleep

Getting enough sleep is like hitting the reset button for your body. When you sleep, your body repairs tissues and muscles, reducing stiffness and improving flexibility. Good sleep also helps balance hormones that control stress and aging. According to CDC, most adults need 7-9 hours of sleep everyday. 

• Listen to Your Body: 

Pay attention to how your body feels and adjust your activities as needed.
