Analysis Of Deepak Chopra´s Timeless You

732 Words3 Pages

Time is an illusion of the mind. It exists only in our minds. Change creates this illusion of time. Bases on this fact, we can presume that aging is also a concept of the mind.

Deepak Chopra, an Indian-American physician, public speaker, and author, devised an online program, 'Timeless You' that aims to eliminate the poor models of aging and create awareness for the connection between the mind and aging.

Society and our ancestors have imposed on us the belief that getting old entails pain, inactivity, and intellectual decay. In his program, Deepak Chopra, integrates step-by-step routines to annihilate and change this false model of thought.

'Timeless You' thrives on the concept that our soul/spirit is timeless, and our thoughts control our bodies. The course seeks to help achieve exuberance, curiosity, fun and holistic health characteristic in kids and the youth.

"Timeless You" is an online based program consisting of six courses each running for about 30-60 minutes. The courses include changing perceptions, healthy relationships, youthful mind, mind-body connection, joyful exercise and mindful eating.

The first topic, 'Changing Perceptions', is the most important as it forms the foundation upon which the other parts of the program are built. 'Changing Perceptions' is established on the premise that "what we see/think/feel, we become." If you see your body as a piece of flesh that decays, then that's how you'll feel, and the body will express it. Likewise, if you see/feel youthful, the body will express itself that way.

'Youthful Mind,' the second course, integrates games and exercises to rekindle the curiosity, joy, and fun we experienced as kids thus keeping our 'inner child' alive.

The program then goes on to show how to build healthy relationships and how it can lead to more meaningful and longer life. You'll also learn how to rid yourself of toxic

    She points out facts about different methods of curing human imperfections, such as ageing, impotence and organ failures, and how the idea of ageing has evolved over the years: “old age was so rare in less-developed societies that people who achieved it were granted a certain amount of status and even a mystical cachet. Later, the elderly might have been mocked or isolated, but age was still not seen as an illness. It’s only in recent centuries, as old age has become more and more commonplace, that we have started to venerate youth; ageing is now associated not with fortunate longevity but with decrepitude and disease.” These facts introduce and support the idea that ageing is certainly a problem now compared to earlier in life and is in need of a cure. Zimmerman continues by presenting the effort of others, who are credited, who have put there life work into finding ways to better the effects of ageing, such as the San Quentin prison experiment involving the implanting of executed prisoners’ testis to promote “youth, health and vigour (Zimmerman 2014).”

    “Act your age,” a common reprimand we have all heard or been told at one point in our lives. Many people believe that getting older guarantees a higher level of maturity. However, someone’s maturity does not depend on their age, but rather on their environment and mentality. Not all children are raised in a perfect and loving family; some children are forced to “grow up” faster due to difficult family situations. Children are heavily impacted by the environment they were raised in, for it affects people’s mind psychologically, thus causing different levels of maturity in each individual.

    The book explores the feeling and experience of one 's later years: when one feels both cut off from the past and out of step with the present; when the body starts to give up but the mind becomes more passionate than ever. The book offers a wide vision of the issues that we go throughout our lives: the struggle to achieve goodness; how to maintain individuality in a mass society; and how to emerge out of suffering, loss, and limitation and so on. The book is an important contribution to the literature of aging, and of living. Scott-Maxwell’s book is compelling.

    Maturation is a natural phenomenon experienced by everyone. It starts from the day birth and continues until death. Although this process is natural and will happen inevitably, different people in a person’s life can hasten it. For example, a person can be spurred away from home by his family and forced to mature prematurely. As well, someone could say something to make one see the world a different way.

    What have I learned about myself as a learner from this chapter? According to the beginning of this chapter, each person who lives long enough will become a part of every age group. Without choice, we must all go through the various stages in life and eventually join the ranks of the aged. Like other cultural groups, we feel, think, perceive, and behave, in part, based on the age group to which we belong. The study of age as a function of culture is important to educators because it helps them understand how the child or adolescent struggles to win peer acceptance and to balance this effort with the need for parental approval.

    Positive frames of elderly people are related to successful, creative and productive aging (Bailey, 2010). According to Bailey (2010), the most persistent stereotypes of aging people are declining health and deteriorating appearance. The first things that I learned about this population are that these stereotypes are far from true. The elderly people that I engaged with are beautiful people from different backgrounds. Some of them may have been challenged physically but with the appropriate motivational approaches, were raring to go in order to improve their well-being.

    As I emerged myself into this week’s material, my main takeaway is that I do not think about aging. I know most men in my family live to be in their 70s and women into the 70s to 90s, but I do not think about aging from a personal aspect. I am aware that death will eventually come but with my son about to turn two, it is not something I sit and ponder. Not to mention that I will be reaching the 25 year mark next April, which to me is still very young. This made me recall the comments that Dan Buettner made in his TED lecture and how he compared other cultures to the American culture in terms of aging.

    Theories of late adulthood development are quite diverse in later adulthood than at any other age. They include self-theory, identity theory and stratification theory. The self-theory tries to explain the core self and search to maintain one’s integrity and identity. The older adults tend to integrate and incorporate their various experiences with their vision and mission for their respective community (Berger, 2008). Also, the older people tend to feel that their attitude, personalities and beliefs have remained in a stable state over their lives even as they acknowledge that physical changes have taken place in their bodies.

    This resulted that emerging adult may not be as healthy as it was perceived (Fatusi & Hindin, 2010). With that, researchers had also found that majority of the bad health habits, such as inactivity, obesity and poor diet, which started in adolescence stage increased as the young people progress to emerging adult. Therefore, this highlights the importance of having a regular exercise which not only improves physical health but mental as well such as improvement in self-concept, reduction in anxiety and depression (Santrock, 2013). Cognitive development in emerging adult is relatively similar to adolescent’s though Piaget did affirm that emerging adult’s thinking are more quantitatively advanced as they carry a greater wealth of knowledge and especially so for a specific area (Santrock, 2013).
