60 MEANS: LEVELING UP MY HEALTH!
Turning 60 in January inspired me take a close look at how I was treating my body, and well - myself - in all ways: My body, self-esteem, my mind, inner child, my environment - everything. It seemed that moving forward, I would NOT be heading into my 50's! More towards 70 years old - when did THAT happen??!!
As a Healer, Coach & Chiropractor: naturally I value health, right? And I am not perfect in treating my body - mind - heart perfectly well. In fact, trying to be perfect is in my opinion - well - kind of neurotic - so I make sure I don't pull that on myself!
As I get older, I feel young, I feel great - better than I did even a year ago. I am in zero pain, I have tons of energy, I sleep well - I am usually in a good mood - but as my body "ages", I want her to be as vibrant and active and fit as utterly possible. More fit than ever!
Throughout my life, I’ve been so blessed with the love- love -love of physical activity and exercise. I taught high impact aerobics in the early 80's, backpacked for weeks at a time through the Sierra Nevada, have enjoyed running, camping, swimming, dancing, hiking, diving, bike riding, tennis, yoga, and skiing. When I am low on activity, wow do I feel out of sync with Me. Less joy.
Turning 60 really called me to look at things. I realized that I wasn’t exercising enough, not working my ever-essential core, and was not so toned. I‘d been enjoying a little too much reward treats like cookies. So: I leveled up! I started a regular routine for core, and vigorously hike more often.
I now eat less processed food and sugar (sugar, to my dismay, is my favorite addiction but is also one of the most harmful things one can ingest...). I do eat things that are not ideal but like I said: no interest in being perfect.
I have to say that I’m doing a great job and I feel so great!
I regularly engage in the ever – empowering practice of deliberate thinking: choosing my thoughts like: “Anything wonderful can happen for me today.”
I upgraded how I treat myself: toxic thoughts are progressively getting left behind - all toxic people in my life have been left behind, too. I call that: Raising My Vibration. Hmmm... I love and use that phrase: "Raising My Vibration" - it speaks for itself, right? The quality of our surroundings, the quality of people in our lives, the quality of food, thoughts, words and even actions is what makes our health what it is! The higher the quality, the higher the vibration! Leveling Up!!
I am looking forward to sharing the little things that I continue to enjoy and do and learn. I'll post videos, pictures, and more blogs as time rolls on. If I inspire you to Level Up and would like assistance, call to set up a complimentary initial consultation.
