Sometimes we think it's too late to start, but as long as you have the desire to grow, we're always on time. It doesn't matter if we start from scratch today; it matters that we decide not to stay where we no longer want to be. Take that first step, believe in yourself again and remember: your best version is still under construction.
A few days ago I uploaded a photo and someone commented: the old lady is fine, it was funny to me, I was not offended. Yes, I am over 60 years old and I take care of myself, not out of vanity, but out of love for my future.
After 60, taking care of the body should not become a war against the tiempo.No it's about eternally chasing the body we had at 30, but understanding the one we have today. Knowing what is changing, what you need, what has scientific backing and what belongs more to the noise of an industry that knows perfectly well that we have questions... and many, such as talking about hormones, sleep, energy, memory, exercise, nutrition, menopause and longevity.
But above all I want to ask you a question that seems to me increasingly important: what can we really do today to reach the next few years with a body that accompanies us well? Because to live longer, is wonderful. But to live more feeling good... that's the point.
I take great care of my mental health because of having alertness until the end of my days.Do you know why we feel that the years pass faster and faster? Because memory only keeps the moments where we were really present. The days that we live with our head somewhere else go blank, as if someone had erased them, and that's why when we look back we feel that time flew by.
The truth is that life is going unattended and not exactly “fast” as we think.
That's where you have to get in with a magnifying glass, the most powerful tool in that sense is presence, in the present, it's being able to be where our body is also, here, now.
And we have to pay attention to this, when the head refuses to stay, that's exactly what it's time to work from the root. Fortunately I am disciplined and thanks to my willingness to train daily I have legs that do 100 squats without pain in my knees, I go up and down stairs without getting tired, especially when the elevator in my condo is damaged, I carry my bags from the market and I take the bottle with drinking water up to the top because my house has stairs, I have a firm and strong back. I am getting stronger for a quality old age. It's not about looking 40, it's about training every day in my 60s. It's about moving, feeling strong and still being active at this age.And you, are you getting ready? Get active 💪😉.
