Longevity experts reveal ‘flicker method’ that could help you feel years younger
Longevity experts Stuart Kaplan and Marcus Riley propose a 'flicker method' suggesting aging is not linear but can involve temporary reversals in functional age. They identify seven stages of aging, emphasizing that lifestyle, mindset, and social connections can influence one's perceived age. Positive interventions, such as exercise and social engagement, may help individuals 'flicker back' to a younger state despite setbacks.
- ▪Stuart Kaplan and Marcus Riley authored the book 'Your Aging Advantage,' outlining a new model of aging.
- ▪The 'flicker stage' describes brief periods where individuals may feel significantly younger due to positive lifestyle changes.
- ▪Aging is portrayed as a fluid process influenced by psychological, physical, and social factors rather than just chronological age.
- ▪The authors suggest people can actively influence their aging process through identifiable 'flicker triggers.'
- ▪Functional age, according to the authors, can shift based on interventions like exercise and renewed social connections.
