5-year-olds are an endless source of “why” and “how” questions. They have an insatiable desire to understand how the world works. By the time we reach our 50s, many of us have had our natural curiosity beaten out of us. The older we get, the narrower our focus becomes. But, it doesn’t have to be this way. We can learn from our inner-5-year-old (and the real kids in our families) and get more from life after 50. Today, I’d love to share a few suggestions for how to do exactly this!

Positive affirmations are built on a simple idea; the words that we say to ourselves matter. Even if we don’t speak to ourselves out loud, our inner-dialogue shapes our feelings about ourselves and the world around us. Positive affirmations allow us to take control of the words that we choose for ourselves. And, ultimately, they help us to take control of our lives. So, today, I want to share a few affirmations – especially those that encourage us to love our bodies. Come join us for a cup of tea (or coffee) and a chat.

Personally, I think that this message has a lot of power and I hope that you will join us for a chat. Come join us for a cup of tea (or coffee) and a chat.

There is an old saying that “you are what you eat” and, when it comes to healthy aging, this is absolutely true! In fact, you could argue that nutrition becomes even more important as our bodies get a little older. When I was younger, I could drink root beer floats with abandon. Now, I look at a tub of ice-cream and start to gain weight. Oh well, there are plenty of other things that I love about life after 60! Today, I would like to share some suggestions for how to get the nutrition that you need. I’d also love to hear about your favorite healthy foods.
