Hi Lonehawk,
I really like your recommendations for immortality. I would add a few more:
1. Say this to yourself at least five times, three times a day -- "Every day I am growing younger, and younger in physical and mental capacity. My body and mind are a healthy 30 years of age" (unless you are younger than 30; then say your present age). This is a variation of a meditation by Dr. Deepak Chopra. When you say this, don't even try to believe it -- just let the thought enter and pass through your mind. I try to do this with thoughts of health and vitality also.
2. Try not to become rigid, narrow-minded, opinionated, or jaded. Keep up with what is new; I even try to see what is going on on MTV, this is a hard one for me! I believe we can be wise and still fresh and open-minded about new things. Never lose appreciation for the wonder and newness of life! Very often try to do something risky to shake yourself up!
3. Try behaviorism. Fake smiling sometimes even if you don't feel like it -- I believe it really can start to influence me to be happy.
Good luck staying young!
