3 Ways to Take Care of Yourself: Body, Mind and Spirit

Taking care of your health is an act of self respect.  You know how people say to their loved ones, “Take good care of yourself; be well”?  They say that because they love you and they care.  They also say that when they see you’re doing something that’s not in the interest of your good health.  When you take care of yourself, age doesn’t matter because you last longer.  So let’s explore the three ways to take care of yourself:  in body, mind and spirit.

Why Is It Important to Show Your True Self?

A few months ago, Life Coach Cat Coluccio wrote a post on her blog called “Vulnerability:  3 Reasons Why Reinvention Begins with You Showing Your True Self at Midlife.”  Here at Your True Self Blog I would like to discuss these aspects of the importance of showing your true self, at midlife and beyond.  Baby boomers today are speaking out, standing up and showing themselves as women never have before.  By doing so, they are changing how women are seen and treated in our society.  It is a legacy being given to future generations of women — a new world in which age doesn’t matter.

What is More Beautiful than Love?

I was just thinking about how beauty is in the eye of the beholder, as they say.  When someone loves you, you are always beautiful to them.  In fact, age doesn’t matter…because for those who stay married for a lifetime, they still see the beauty of the person they fell in love with no matter how much time goes on.  That’s shared love.

The Peacock Shows You How to Stand Out

If you haven’t yet, I’d like to encourage you to let your true self stand out and be noticed.  Go ahead and be bold, like the peacock!  Show your true colors, inside and out.  Age doesn’t matter.  Why wait?

If you are reading this, it is time to be blessed with the magic of the peacock’s message.  If you want others to be blessed with this energy, share this article ?

Close your eyes and imagine the peacock’s glowing array of colors.  Feel the power of that beauty.  Now take that inspiration and think of how you’d like to express yourself just as freely and boldly.

What are your favorite colors?  Which ones look best on you?  What are your best outfits?  What have you worn that makes you feel beautiful, sexy, powerful?  Put these things on rotation and wear them again…(not something I say often, huh?  Usually I’m all about variety.  I’ll have to take my own advice.  Lol!)

In Indian lore, any living creature that comes across your path brings you a message.  These “totem” animals represent the subconscious mind, giving the information about the energy held.  The Indians believed that each and every one of these beautiful powerful animals have medicine powers and knowledge to share.  When you see them, they are helping your to learn, grow and expand your consciousness.

I’d like to talk a little more about true beauty within and without…

Learning How to Support Ourselves and Our Sisters

I was pleased to be invited to attend the Influencers of Midlife Summit months ago for an early bird discount, but at the time I didn’t have the funds available.  Then, a week before the event, I came across some new information on the event.  I suddenly realized I could now afford it but had to pay full price since it was the last minute.  I found a great flight package that included The Hotel at Avalon where the conference was being held.

I spent the money, cancelled all my plans for the weekend, and flew out to Alpharetta, Georgia, just north of Atlanta.  My goal was to learn more about blogging and to contact sister bloggers to collaborate with.

I learned so much that it scared me once I was back home in Detroit.  What made me nervous was the immense time commitment to social media that I heard was necessary.  Can I really spend two hours a day on social media when I do not yet have money to hire help?  That’ll be the big question for my technical assistant @fuzzytek at our next meeting.

The best thing about the Influencer of Midlife event was being surrounded by women in their 40’s, 50’s, 60’s and beyond who were full of youthful vitality putting their unbounded energy into big goals.  They prove that later in life we are wiser and more capable than ever before to do things in a bigger and bigger way.  Age truly doesn’t matter!
