Ya, agreed! there are many things, one do not notice in teen age!
and , to me, you can extend your teen age to older by proper dietary!

Very insightful post!
For me, aging is, I believe much different than most people.
I look deceptively younger than I am- by 10 to even 15 years or so!
I have a high degree of energy, am successful at what I do (own four businesses) and I hate to say it, but most people even much younger than me can bore me to tears.
All the time I’m asked, “How old are you?” I say, “I can’t tell you that. Now, I’m an enigma. Enjoy.”
Visit my post, “You Don’t Have to Have a Mood Disorder to be an Entrepreneur, but it Helps”- as I’d very much like your comments from someone definitely in the “know”.

(I’ll be the only one in the nursing home pushing my walker down the halls and bouncing my head up and down to whatever hip-hop song is on my boom box and thinking, yeah- all these nurses want me. Uh huh.)

Hi Sarah,

Sport and such was never my thing, but I have noticed physical decline. I think I have got broader in my thinking and less sharp/critical over time. Thanks for your comment.

very interested. Send away!

As far as age is concerned – I have trouble with the physical aspects of it – no longer just thinking something and being able to do it – like a gap between me and my body, and no longer looking like I think I do. But mentally – bring it on! Nothing in my experience, but increased awareness – mainly of others – and increased confidence.

Hi Sarah, I can send you the text – no illustrations yet, if you like. It went up the body: feet, legs, waist, chest, neck, head then finishing with a bit on the whole body. For each section there was an introduction and a bit about the physical then the psychological and spiritual aspects. There were guided exercises for each part. Eg the feet was about being grounded for the psychological and then pilgrimage for the spiritual.

Because the guided exercises are often about movement they can be hard to follow without the illustrations.

If you would like to know more just ask.

I’m delighted to hear that you are interested.

Today I am celebrating my Mom’s sixty something (she did not want to tell me how many). But while we were out having dinner she said -”you know daughter, I dont feel like sixty…I dont feel I am aging”. I think we all are aging,even my 3 yr old daughter is aging,which is good we are changing. Old wine is always better!
