Ep 9: 3 Ways to Feel Better About Aging
Manage episode 391692862 series 3524764
Today, I’m sharing some hard truths: Aging is a slow decline. But the rate and speed of aging is a choice. In this episode, I detail practices to feel younger than your age and three ways to reframe the aging process. I also illustrate how to create different habits and provide a visualization practice to bring your goals into reality. I know what you're capable of — and you can become empowered to take action and improve the aging process!
First, I share reflections from moments when I felt “old” and why I worked so hard to redirect language around age. I also detail how the body changes in midlife and why it’s so important to reframe how you process and verbalize your experience — and to not give up along the way! From there, I explore three ways to positively reframe the way you think about age, and provide an “ideal scene” visualization practice to get clear about your goals!
Without an ounce of doubt, I feel younger (and better!) today than I did in my 30s. If you are a woman who wants to improve how you feel about the aging process. This episode is for you.
