    I will be 56 on March 15th. I find the older I get, the more confident I feel and the more I feel I can be myself, what others think about me just doesn’t matter!

    I'm 50 years old. I was born in 1974. I don't like getting old. My body hurts. My back hurts. My feet hurts. My neck hurts. Everything hurts. I get tired for fast after hiking or removing snow from my house.

    • @gusmonster59
      @gusmonster59 5 місяців тому +2

      Getting older isn't for the faint of heart. If you hurt, there are things you can do to minimize it. But you need to know why whatever hurts. Your neck - is it your pillow or how you are sleeping? Your back - there are exercises your can do to strengthen your back to support your body better and not hurt so much (yoga works very well, but you have to stick with it). And yeah - your body will get tired faster is your are not hiking on a regular basis or going beyond your body's ability. My feet hurt, but I found some very cheapo insoles that help a lot, and I found that for me, massaging my feet at night has made them hurt a lot less.

    I am in a different stage having turned 70 last fall. I am mostly and introvert and need lots of time to myself to maintain my balance. Just over a year ago I moved into a lovely cottage in a senior property . I loved my last place but it was always insecure. Now I know I am somewhere I can afford and love. Have 2 patios and 2 garden beds and everything I love (I'm very visual) is around me and I'm secure and know I can live here affordably as long as I want. I can be as as social or introverted as I want and have a weekly art group on property to maintain my creativity.

    Hello from New Zealand 👋
    I’m 53 and am fully embracing this stage of my life. I have been ‘young’- been there done that. My hair is happily greying and the wrinkles and laughter lines tell a story of my experiences. I feel honoured to have the opportunity to be here as a few friends did not make it to my age.
    Thank you for this lovely video ❤

    Hello from Florida USA! Your surroundings are breathtaking! I'm 53 and am well into menopause. I am so ready to be finished! I can relate to everything you said. I thought I was going crazy (my hormones were!). The hotflashes wore me down and I just couldn't take much more. I found an amazing Functional Doctor and natural hormone doctor to help me. I'm much better with those symptoms now, but it seems like something else is always ready to pop up. I stopped coloring my hair when my kids were teenagers. I've been gray for a decade. I wear a pixie cut and get so many compliments. I am uninterested in ever coloring it again. Makeup, with the exception of lipstick, was a casualty of the pandemic for me.
    Your horses are so cute!!

    I lost my 2 best ever friends just before their 50th birthday. They both died suddenly from illnesses. I am now over 50 and will embrace every year. Let’s not take getting older for granted.

    I'll be 52 this year. I stopped coloring my hair over a year ago. Other people seem to not like it, but I do. I am also just fine with my wrinkles I'm getting. I think of it as a blessing. I've known too many people who died young.

I'm embracing all stages of life. Loving myself and being gentle with all of it. We are blessed to be here now. With gratitude💖

    I’m 39, and I am looking forward to older age. I have been getting silver hair for sometime and I am completely in love with it. They are my sparkly strands. Getting old is a privilege. However it doesn’t mean feeling old. As you said you can do things to age gracefully. Eating healthy, staying active, doing things that bring you joy… I also think being in nature is a big factor is health.

    Greetings, Marit! From England. I'm 53 and 1 year into my silver hair grow-out journey, not menopausal yet but the perimenopause is just awful for me. Exhaustion, tears, heart pounding, doing it all without any help. I've never been into makeup just a little mascara now and then. It's always a comfort to discuss it with other women. Good to meet you here xxx

    Aging gracefully isn't hair dye, plastic surgery, fillers, and using every 'anti-aging' product out there. It means embracing who you have become. I am 65 and sure, things don't work like they used to, but I deal with whatever and keep moving. Like my parents, I have very little grey at the moment, but I am actually looking forward to having the beautiful silver hair my mother had.

    I'm 55 years and I still dye my hair only because I don't think I've embraced my age yet although my body hurts my mind is still active but also I have a 16 year old and I don't think she wants me to go gray yet❤

    Love this and what a gorgeous farm! At 52 focused on things, I put off for way too long. Fulfillment, learning new skills to take me to a second slower career, spirituality, self-worth/reliance and things that bring joy. No gray hairs. yet, body soreness but finding what works with diet and nutrition as the body changes. I prefer to have projects to be doing something vs working out but understand the value of keeping the body and mind very active without overworking it. It's all about balance. Yerrn to sit by a sound or smaller body of water at a vacation house and just be!

    I completely agree about the honesty of openly aging! I don't mind the gray hair and wrinkles, but do miss the greater amounts of energy. The real downfall, though, is planning ahead, knowing that I have less time available to do everything I want to do! I just found your channel and subscribed, and am looking forward to more videos.

    L'età è solo un numero diceva mia madre.
    La bellezza va oltre le rughe( che non hai)e i capelli grigi e la menopausa non è quel mostro che dicono.
    Sarà perché non ho avuto problemi di nessun genere.
    Se la vita che conduci ti porta serenità e gioia continua così, gli altri non contano.
    E per finire complimenti per i tuoi lavori.
    Bellissimi.
    Buonanotte dalle Dolomiti.

    White grey hair , eyesight, back pain, fibromyalgia, bad memory, hot flushes CAN be managed and REVERSED.
    Lookout for a flower called St John's Wart- it grows everywhere near woods n fields, FREE, great for hot flushes.
    I don't look my age however I CAN look better, feeling great inside is IMPORTANT aswell. Journalling, positive Subliminals for manifesting IS IMPORTANT as they work. Art Journalling, drawing n painting, collage going for walks in NATURE great for mental health.
    * whoever is reading this message please sort out the feng shui of your BEDROOM - you will discover the SECRETS of the universe n other things I can't mention here because of youtube restrictions n stuff governments r hiding from humans. - you sort out feng shui answer to many things. Ask and u shall recieve.
