As Young as You Feel Day

As Young As You Feel Day is an annual American holiday that encourages us to feel young. Throw away the stereotypes and have fun on this day. It doesn’t matter if you are 40, 50, 60, or older! It is celebrated on March 22.

History

The story of As Young As You Feel Day is not well known. The creators of the holiday probably wanted to encourage all people who think their time is irretrievably lost to put those thoughts out of their minds. Believe that you are young and full of energy, and life will immediately get better!

In this world, children try to grow up faster, while adults try their best to delay old age. Aging is inevitable, but that is not a reason to forget your hobbies, give up beautiful clothes, or start to act like a wise old person (grandfather or grandmother). Live for today and remember: positive thinking and feeling young can work wonders!

Throughout history, there have been many attempts to find the secret of eternal youth. For example, in the 16th century, the Spaniard Juan Ponce de León tried to find the Fountain of Youth. Naturally, he did not succeed, but he did discover the territory of modern Florida.

Interesting Facts

  • The great Egyptian queen Cleopatra often took baths with donkey’s milk. This method was believed to rejuvenate the skin, making it soft and healthy.
  • A person’s appearance in old age is not only genetically determined but is also strongly influenced by lifestyle. Avoiding bad habits, regular exercise (without fanaticism), and minimizing stress can slow down the aging of the skin as much as possible.
  • Positive thinking is the key to a happy old age. The fewer negative thoughts about growing old and ending an active life, the better!

How to Celebrate

Dedicate yourself to your favorite hobbies that you enjoyed when you were young. Visit memorable places. If you are married, you and your partner can recreate the scene where you first met. Feel young and full of energy because this holiday is made just for that!

Spread the word on social media! Ask other users what age they would like to return to.
