If you want to be younger looking in 60 days, start practising these 7 daily habits

There’s a huge difference between looking young and feeling young.

This difference comes down to habits. Looking younger isn’t about quick fixes or hiding your age. It’s about adopting a lifestyle that promotes health and vitality.

In just 60 days, you can start to see changes, not by resorting to drastic measures, but by incorporating simple daily habits into your life.

Wanting to look younger isn’t about vanity, it’s about feeling your best and aging gracefully. And let me tell you, it’s easier than you think.

Here are seven daily habits you should start practicing if you want to look younger in just 60 days. Trust me, these are game-changers.

1) Hydration is key

One of the most overlooked aspects of looking younger is hydration.

Drinking water isn’t just about quenching your thirst, it’s about nourishing your body.

Our bodies are made up of a large percentage of water, and maintaining that balance can play a huge role in how our skin appears.

When our bodies are hydrated, our skin looks plump, radiant, and yes, younger. It’s like giving your skin a daily dose of anti-aging serum.

But it’s not just about drinking water. Hydration also includes the moisture we put onto our skin. Regular use of moisturizers and serums can keep your skin looking fresh and youthful.

Age is just a number but how you look and feel is entirely in your hands. So keep that water bottle handy and moisturize daily. Trust me, your skin will thank you.

2) Sunscreen is a must

I used to think sunscreen was only necessary when hitting the beach or spending the day outside during summer. But boy, was I wrong!

A few years ago, I started noticing some fine lines and sunspots on my face. I was puzzled because I was diligent about my skincare routine and drank plenty of water.

It was then a dermatologist friend suggested that I start using sunscreen every day, not just on sunny days.

I took her advice to heart and started applying sunscreen every morning, rain or shine. And what a difference it made! Not only did it prevent new sunspots from forming, but it also helped fade the existing ones.

Since then, sunscreen has become an integral part of my daily routine. It’s been a game-changer in my quest to look younger.

The lesson here? Don’t underestimate the power of sunscreen. It’s not just for preventing sunburns; it’s for preserving your youthful glow.

3) Embrace mindfulness

Now, let’s talk about something that’s not directly related to your physical appearance but plays a huge role in how young you feel and look: mindfulness.

Mindfulness is all about being present and living in the moment. It’s about taking a break from the constant rush of life and truly savouring the now.

And believe me, nothing ages you faster than stress. The worry lines, the tired eyes, the hunched shoulders – all signs of a mind burdened with too much worry about the past or the future.

In my book, “The Art of Mindfulness: A Practical Guide to Living in the Moment”, I delve deeper into how practicing mindfulness can help you combat stress, improve mental clarity and ultimately, make you look and feel younger.

The book provides practical exercises and tips to incorporate mindfulness into your daily routine. Trust me, once you start living in the moment, you’ll not only feel lighter but also notice a visible difference in your appearance.

So give mindfulness a try. It’s not just a buzzword; it’s a way of life that can drastically change how you age.

4) The magic of sleep

Sleep, or the lack thereof, can be a cruel mistress. It’s astounding how much it affects our mood, energy levels, not to mention our skin.

There was a time when burning the midnight oil was more the norm than the exception. Work, social commitments, you name it – sleep always took a backseat.

Sure enough, the effects started showing. Dull skin, puffy eyes, and a constant feeling of fatigue became my everyday reality.

Then came the realization: sleep is not a luxury; it’s a necessity. So, I made a commitment to improve my sleep hygiene.

That meant setting a regular sleep schedule, creating a calm and quiet sleeping environment, and prioritizing quality sleep over late-night Netflix binges.

The transformation was remarkable. With consistent good sleep, I began looking fresher and more alert. And no surprise here: when you’re well-rested, you just naturally look younger.

5) Say yes to fats

This might sound counter-intuitive, but hear me out: fats are your friends when it comes to looking younger.

No, we’re not talking about indulging in fatty junk food. We’re talking about healthy fats found in foods like avocados, nuts, seeds, and fish. These good fats play a crucial role in keeping your skin supple, glowing and youthful.

Contrary to popular belief, a low-fat diet can actually age you faster. Our skin needs fats to maintain its natural oil barrier, which is essential for locking in moisture and keeping our skin plump and youthful.

So, don’t shy away from adding healthy fats to your diet. Remember, it’s not about depriving yourself; it’s about nourishing your body with what it truly needs.

6) Exercise regularly

Here’s something we all know but often neglect: regular physical activity.

Exercise does more than just keep you fit. It boosts blood circulation, which helps deliver oxygen and nutrients to your skin, giving it a natural, healthy glow. It also aids in the production of collagen, the protein that keeps our skin firm and elastic.

You don’t need to be a gym rat or run marathons to reap the benefits. Even a brisk walk in the park, a short yoga session, or a fun dance class can do wonders for your skin and overall well-being.

So make sure to move your body daily. Not only will you feel better, but you’ll also look better. It’s a win-win!

7) Laugh more

Laughter isn’t just good for the soul—it’s one of the easiest (and most fun) ways to keep yourself looking youthful.

When you laugh, your body releases endorphins, reduces stress hormones, and even boosts circulation, all of which contribute to a fresh, radiant appearance.

Plus, genuine joy naturally makes you look more attractive and approachable.

Stress, on the other hand, is a fast-track to looking older. It leads to tense facial muscles, fine lines, and even dull skin.

Laughing helps counteract this by relaxing your face and keeping your energy light. 

So, make laughter a daily habit. Watch a funny show, spend time with people who make you laugh, or just find humor in the little things.

Not only will you feel happier, but you’ll also start to radiate that youthful, effortless glow that no expensive skincare routine can match.

The essence: It’s a lifestyle

Looking younger isn’t just about what you put on your skin—it’s about how you live your life every day. The habits you practice, from managing stress to staying active and embracing joy, all play a role in keeping you looking fresh and energized.

And the best part? These aren’t just quick fixes; they’re sustainable changes that will keep you feeling and looking youthful for years to come.

One of the most powerful tools for maintaining a youthful glow is mindfulness. Stress and worry can age you faster than time itself, but learning to stay present and cultivate inner peace can make a world of difference.

For a deeper understanding of how to incorporate mindfulness into your daily routine, consider reading my book “The Art of Mindfulness: A Practical Guide to Living in the Moment”. It offers practical exercises and tips to integrate mindfulness into your life seamlessly.

At the end of the day, looking younger starts from within. When you nourish your mind, take care of your body, and fill your days with laughter and purpose, that youthful glow becomes effortless.

Start small, stay consistent, and in 60 days, you’ll see just how powerful these daily habits can be.
