It's great to see you both caring this much about your health at this stage of your life. I have a lot to benefit from my parents staying healthy for as long as possible!! This was also fun to see you two being normal people pursuing your own goals as a couple... it's funny to say it that way, but it's not something I often notice from my perspective haha. Loved the whole video from beginning to end 😁
(Also, great workout montage -- great job with the cloning!)
Thank you so much. What a great comment. So appreciate the kind words and support. ❤️😁
Cecilia 📣 House tour!! 📣House tour!! 🙊🥰
More content on that coming real soon!
I was a nurse for 27 years in the states. I am thrilled with my healthcare here in France. My small village has a Mason de santé with 3 doctors, one who speaks English. I was diagnosed with stage 2c melanoma in February 2023 and have received excellent care. I do have French health care. My local doctor filed paperwork with my diagnosis and most everything-surgery, scans, immunotherapy and taxi services to my immunotherapy-have been covered. I think I’ve paid €150 out of pocket since my diagnosis and mostly on labs. You both look outstanding. I’m sorry I don’t have a smoothie recipe. I’m allergic to comment smoothie ingredients and I can’t find a good one.
We applied and received French health care, my husband after 3 months and me after 6 months. We also have a mutuelle to supplement. It works well for us. I've paid also out of pocket for mostly labs, but not much.
You are so right. It is important to take care of yourself physically as well as mentally. I did well until a few years ago when my joints started to make a lot of noise .
I went to the gym and enjoyed walking daily. I made it till 88, 89 this year. I am planning to go on past 90. If the Universe allows. I feel supported and blessed. I wish the same for you.❤
Thank you for your channel. I love you both ❤❤❤
Wow more power t you. Thank you for being here
❤
Love it, thank you! 🙏😁❤️
My biggest insecurity is my hair, I feel that it was not healthy looking for a long time. Study and money stress gave me a few years of hairloss. At the end of the day it all goes back to nutrition and lowering my stress levels as much as possible. People might say it's vanity but I really do see a difference in my skin and hair when I'm stressfree and treating my body well.
Amen to all that! 👍😁
I’m having the same problem and thinking it could be a gluten allergy/hidden autoimmune symptom!
One tip, hope it helps... chia seeds are better utilized by the body when they've been soaked... so I put mine in milk in the fridge, the night before I make my smoothie
Great to know. Thanks! 🙏😁
Love juicing and smoothies! My 2 cents as a nutritionist: I would soak the nuts and seeds (get rid of enzyme inhibitors, more digestible), skip the oat milk (undesirable stabilizers and oils usually) plus add some greens. Could replace oat milk with some coconut milk or coconut water. Also, add the powders at the end after everything else is smooth to prevent denaturing the protein.
No health background and never had a smoothie...here is what I have heard from different reliable source...maybe even ayurvedic...soak almond and remove skins ( about 21 count)...do not mix fruits and veggies.
artists... good living.... honesty... loyalty...beauty 🤍
Thank you so much 🙏😁
Yeeeess Sister for talking about menopause and perimenopause! It is hugely important to understand the impact it has on our bodies, and how we must educate ourselves about how to work with it for optimal health. This has not been discussed with me prior to me going through it, and I think society in general. There is a lot of damaging misinformation. Anyway, thanks for talking about it, Cecelia, and for including it on your channel. It has a big impact on men too, and I’m all for men learning about it too!
Yes, such an important topic. Thanks for the great comment, and wishing you all the best! 🙏😁
Found a great book on menopause The New Menopause: Navigating Your Path Through Hormonal Change with Purpose, Power, and Facts
by Mary Claire Haver MD
Highly recommend for all woman. It gives great insight on it!
@@MO-xm1kj Yes! It’s in my Amazon cart rn. She’s amazing.
I believe you should embrace aging. It is a new chapter and can frankly be the best chapter. Standing in our own shoes, so to speak, for the first time. Not wasting time or energy on what does not serve us as time now is precious and giving our time to that which does. I have never been happier. That aging is a downhill ride is a myth unless you believe it and then you will live that way.
My priority is movement and excercise first because this feeds your soul and brain and makes coping with tough things much easier.
👍😁
Smoothies for me are the best way to consume enough of the dark leafy greens we need for calcium- I do Tuscan kale, Swiss chard, collard greens, broccoli. a banana, frozen strawberries and blueberries, a spoonful of peanut butter, some chia seeds and plant based milk. Delicious!!! Three of these over a week keeps my gut biome happy. 👍
I’m moving to France too! Making offer on cute cottage in a village in Aquitaine with a train. About 20 miles from Poitiers. Life in Texas just doesn’t cut it for me. Guns, hurricanes, floods, poor health outcomes from yucky foods, dumb politics…. The list goes on. Horrendous hot summers that last six months of the year. Finito!! Enjoyed your video very much. Shared with a family member who is suffering health problems here in the states.
So appreciate your support. Wishing you all the very best on your new adventure! ❤️😁
I realized last year that I used to naturally intermittent fast during my 20's and was slim and healthy then. I took it up again and will never choose any other way to eat again! I love it so much and the benefits seem endless & keep growing! I have become slimmer again (I only had a few mid-life vanity pounds to lose but they were STUBBORN), my health is improving in many ways and my relationship to food and hunger is so much better!
Nice! 😁
You are absolutely right, there is not a one and only solution that fits everybody. As Cecilia says you need to see what will work for you. I do my intermittent fasting my own way. I cannot go for a walk or exercise without my breakfast. Instead, I stop eating early, about 5.30 pm, that gives me a good 16 to 18 hours of fasting.
Love it. :)
I do the same, I don't eat after 5:30. Works great!
You are right, I also do intermittent my own way, I skip breakfast, always have since young adult, and start with lunch and then till 7 p.m. then I start the fast until next day lunch again. Worked for me.
This is what health means to me: eating a 100% whole foods plant based diet (not only good for my own health but that of the animals and the planet); exercise (rebounding and weight lifting 5x/week), acupuncture treatments and red/near infrared light therapy. Of course, there are more things one could do but who has the time for it?! I find that weight lifting gives me the most benefits for physical and mental health. My favourite smoothie recipe: 1/2 c almond milk, 1/2 filtered water, 1 serving plant based vanilla protein powder (I use Orgain), 1/2 banana, 1 tbsp powdered peanut butter, 1-2 tbsp Irish Moss gel, blend it, then add 4 ice cubes and blend again. Hi from Edmonton, Canada
Way to go 🙌🏻
So refreshing to come across this video. I loved seeing you share your life. One of my go to smoothie’s is spinach, cashew milk, water, berries (blackberries, wild blueberries, strawberries, raspberries), almond butter, banana, Vega protein powder and stevia and few pieces of ice.
Love it 😁❤️
Hola guys! I missed you! These posts are wonderful. The topics and experiences you share are pure “adult therapy.” Your honesty is refreshing in a world that is so hell bent on the frivolous and superficial clickbait. Grateful. Gracias
Thank you so much. 🙏😁
Health is true wealth . Get started today !! 🎉❤
👍😁
thank you for sharing your journey! your videos are always very honest about the difficulties, yet they never feel pessimistic, quite the opposing :) very uplifting!
Thank you so much! Your words mean a lot. 🙏
I retired at 67 and have so enjoyed getting back in shape. I’ve fasted now for three years for 16 hours and feel awesome. Walk every morning 3 miles at a fast pace. Now I’ll have to incorporate the mind part. Love my smoothies too, I use frozen fruits and seeds. So enjoy your journey.
So nice to see you two so happy and "genki" as we say here in Japan. Fasting definitely helps and makes so much sense when you think about calories in / calories out because most people overeat just because they can. Some of the newer science will suggest that you occasionally have a proper "break-the-fast" upon waking to shock the system. The idea is that your body can become too accustomed to the fasting schedule and start to regulate itself differently. Mixing up the schedule seems to keep your body in the optimal zone. Also discovered that the more I took out animal products and processed food the better I felt, now my family and I are completely plant-based and I am feeling great at 54, wife feeling great at 52, and of course, our son is thriving at age 10 ;) Thank you for sharing your journey with us all!
Always inspiring💗
Thank you 🙏😁
Drinking matcha tea in powder form changed my life. I drink coffee afterwards. Also I monitor my sugar spikes with a meter. Juicing so much fruit would put me on a roller coaster with so much juice. I do add 5 frozen cherries to help with inflammation ❤
Great tips! We’re very interested in getting a meter to measure glucose spikes.
A matcha tea fan here!
My recipe for smoothie is 75% of green powers swiss chard, spinach, kale), a half cup mix of flaxseed and chia seeds, mango, banana, pineapple or other combinacion of frozen fruits with 32 oz of water. I don't use protein powder because is another process food I wouldn' like to add.
Like Cecilia I have small coffee cup after lunch, but only with unsweetened almond milk.
I love your videos!
@@humblebee3018 Great stuff. And so appreciate your support! 🙏😁
Cecilia is a gorgeous lady. She definitely glows. What a beautiful couple. I love these videos. Thank you for sharing about this topic.
🙏😁
Also in my 50's, I began the "preventative" journey at age 20, going vegan before it was a thing, and moving into raw vegan when I went through alternative health schooling. I've been successfully practicing intermittent fasting since 2010, have been "working out" for my lifetime, and I experience the consistent results as a middle ager. I have the same energy since this body was younger, vitality, and amazing quality of life. As our bodies age, we can learn that simple is best, eating Nature is what these bodies require, movement is key, rest is essential, and living passionately is The Way! Thank you for your channel, for you both in sharing a small taste of your lives, and for amazing film/video work!
Thank you so much! And for the reminders on what really matters. 🙏😁
Your house is looking amazing.
Thanks! More to come on that real soon…
We loved the video, very inspirational. Thanks for taking us with you on your journey. We follow you from the town of Rutland, MA. USA.
Thank you 🙏😁
Loved this episode! Lots of food for thought about the manner in which we choose to care for ourselves and to seek a better quality of life as we age.
🙏😁
I, like you, always hated to work out. Until, just recently, I discovered Tai Chi. Strengthens, active meditation, calming…it’s perfect. Give it a try.
Sounds excellent. Thank you for the recommendation. 🙏😁
Oh, I loved going to tai chi classes but sadly our local school closed. It was great for pain relief and stress reduction, and yet still a mental challenge! I wonder if there’s anything online…..hmmmm.
I love your channel. Such inspiration on living well.
Thank you! 🙏😁
This was fantastic! Thank you for such an entertaining and aesthetically pleasing video! Full of great info as well!
🙏😁
Hi,
I rarely comment on videos I watch on UA-cam.
But I think I have to leave a comment :)
I watch your son's videos regularly.
When I saw that his parents had also started posting videos on their own UA-cam channels, my first thought was:
His Parents see that making videos on UA-cam works, so they get started too.
But with the impression that it was going to be completely uninteresting.
Oh my god, I was so wrong!! :) :)
Your videos are so cool and following your journey on your new life in Europe is so interesting and inspiring.
Apparently making good videos runs in the family for you :)
More please!
So sweet of you. Thank you so much! :)
It was great to hear that you're both going well. Our two stories have some similarities. We're older, in our 60s, sold up just over 2 years ago and moved life from Australia to France and Italy (We live between both countries) so we can appreciate all the challenges of getting life in order all over again. Car licences, health systems etc etc.....Isn't there such a sense of accomplishment once its all in place. We're also massive fans of intermittent fasting which is part of our daily routine (we could never stop, it just makes too much sense. After all coffee should be drunk black
🙂) and we can't live without our daily green smoothie which we've been making for the past 10 years or so. Some of our ingredients include hemp, sunflower, chia, sesame and flax seeds, avacado, tofu, a diverse range of vegetables (at least 10). We include but go lite on fruit because of the high fructose levels), goji berries etc.. Coconut and Almond milk. We then mix in hemp seed oil.. Like you we're fortunate to be able to access incredibly fresh high quality organic produce. Also like you we're convinced that nutrition is important to extending our 'health span'. Happy living! Maria e Rowan. PS two other ingredients that pack a punch are mint from the garden and lemon peel... !
Once again you have made my Sunday evening. Thank you for sharing your wonderful journey relocating to France.
I love the “new pair of eyes “ concept
Thank you 🙏❤️
I absolutely concur with you both in regards to intermittent fasting, it truly has changed my physical health.
👍😁
Very nice to see another video from you, it had been awhile! Love this subject.
I am in my sixties and have always been exceptionally healthy, active, and strong, competitive athlete for many years. One thing I would say is: I don't "fight" aging, I try to accept it with grace and take really good care of myself to the best of my ability. I have learned to slow down a lot especially now that I live in Mexico (somewhat remotely, for 2 years), and that alone has been a really wonderful life change, living simply.
My favorite smoothie is made with a base of strong brewed and chilled hibiscus tea (tastes like juice), then I add cilantro and parsley, papaya, tamarind, and banana. My smoothie has a lot less fruit than what you showed for your smoothie. I often add spirulina and moringa powders but never any protein powders. I do use chia and flax in baking all the time. The smoothie is super green and delicious! Looking forward to seeing a new house tour now that you've been there awhile. : )
Thank you so much for your perspective. Got us thinking about some things! 🙏😁
Such a helpful video. I turned 58 in February. I never married or had kids which worked out best for me. So I do feel I've been in arrest in development because I'm just living my life. That old lady thing is kicking in and it is SO strange. When I was 40 I really felt 25. I don't feel 58 but in a way I do. Yes the intermediate fasting is key once I can get on it I feel great! I would like another 30 years and that's the plan god willing! Thanks guys, I really look forward to your updates. I can tell the thoughtfulness that goes into your videos and it is appreciated. Cheers!
Thank you so much, Trish! :)
Thank you so much good info to consider. I will be rewatching.
Thank you 🙏
I also started intermittent fasting a month ago. I found myself having no time in the morning, my breakfasts were not healthy and I felt ravenous by 10AM needing snacks until lunch. Fasting fixed all of that and it's so easy. My next goal is to use my spare time in a better way and stop the instant gratification cycle. It does not make me feel good.
Awesome work 🤩🙌💪
So inspiring and beautiful to see your growth together ❤
Thank you 🙏😁
Thank you again for sharing. I have been divorced for 12 years and just beginning to change my lens on life. I know question why I am still single, instead I am focusing on goals and my overall health. Your channel anchors me and reminds me that at 57, I am still going strong.
Indeed! 💪😁
I don't care much for juice or smoothies (I eat plenty of whole fruit though) but I eat plant based (vegan for health) and love to recommend my favorite online vegan chefs: Rainbow Plant Life and Pick Up Limes. Also in my fifties. ❤
Sounds like a good plan to me. My oldest son is good friends with the gal from Pick Up Lines. :)
Health truly is our wealth !!! Emotionally, spiritually and of course physically !! Love this video !!
Indeed. Thank you so much! 🙏😁
Your family is lovely! I love your channel! Your life is my dream. Would love to live abroad one day. Very inspirational! Thank you!!
Thank you so much! 🙏😁
Thank you, just what I needed!
Awesome! 👍😁
I agree with the importance of taking good care of your health and have done all of the things that you recommend for decades. I’m now 68 years old and have been dealing with heart disease for 4 1/2 years. My struggle has included many failed treatments, including an unanticipated and rare surgical snafu that landed me in the hospital for 2 months. What this has taught me is a couple of things. First, we have only so much control over our future health. If we make it through our 70s (or beyond) strong, vital and without major health calamities to slow us down, then consider yourself very blessed. Second, the easiest and most important thing we can and should do weekly is to check our blood pressure. High BP is a silent killer and yet it is highly treatable. Undiagnosed and untreated BP is responsible for many health conditions, especially as we age. Get an arm cuff, either manual or automatic. Take it with you to your physician’s office to make sure it is accurate. Keep up your health practices for sure and stay healthy and happy living your best lives. ❤
So glad you’re back,miss your videos when you’re not there…..what a beautiful house and French lives you have
Thanks! 🙏😁
Great video once again! That workout scene 🔥 🔥
Thank you so much! Haha. 😆
Thanks for the great video. Your home is so lovely.
Thank you! 🙏😁
Love you guys. Please keep making videos.
Thank you and will do 🙏😁
I loved this video. Great to hear from you again. Always so good.
Would love to see an update on your beautiful house. Your style is sooo fabulous and I love the thought process you go thru! Keep it coming please❤️ 13:26
Will do! 🙏😁
I love so much your videos!
I'm also in the same process as you are.
How to get old with energy, healthy and with the right state of mind.
What helped me a lot since September is I started a creative activity. To be focus in doing a task was mind-blowing, I felt at peace. It makes me be present in the moment, it's a kind of meditation, and it's also so joyful to create something. I think that joy is part of getting older in good health. And of course, healthy food and exercise.
When your wife spoke about the changes for a woman, like the sleep. Girl, I feel you. I finally sleep again thanks to the melatonin.
Thanks again for your videos, I really appreciate them. Buona domenica.
Excellent comment. So happy to hear about your endeavor. Good luck with it and wishing you all the very best! 🙏😁
Love this! I’m on a very similar journey and in my 50s as well! Stay motivated!
Thank you, and good work! 🙏😁
Me, too!❤
Hi Josh and Cecelia. I turn 57 next month. Living in Montreal (Quebec) I have "specialist" doctors for my particular medical needs. I've been on the Quebec "Find a GP" waiting list for almost a year now. Even with my updated disability status added, which should have bumped me up the ladder. I had my main check up the other day, and everything was stellar, except for my osteoarthritis. My doc and I have the same issue. I've been doing the intermittent fasting as well. We only eat home cooked meals, which we both participate in creating. In between meals we do the smoothie option, and no junk foods. I sleep a good chunk of time, and now that it is warmer here, I can get outside more, if I am able, that is. I also have a spiritual life, and my daily meditation time, and my Spiritual Pastor whom I speak to daily. Finding balance is something I still struggle with, it is a work in progress. Thanks for sharing your stories.
And thank you for sharing yours. Wishing you all the very best. 🙏😁
I enjoy your videos so much. We are on a similar path though you are a little far along than I, so watching each of your post helps inspire me as I move into the next chapter of my life. Thank you for continuing to share your wisdom and experiences.
Thank you so much, Mary Jane. 🙏❤️
Wait! I want Cecilia's smoothie recipe!!
ps; LOVE your videos!!!
🙏😁
Really grounded heart warming video so glad you ar settled and feeling good
Thank you. 🙏😁
Thank you for your videos, they keep my deep thinking process active 🙂. Smoothie's I just make up depending on what fruits or vegetables are on hand, but it is not daily. I like listening to your prospects, ideas and analysis about things or problems your might face/ facing, because that makes me think more and analyze things, I like that. Me and my hubby are 60+ and also want to stay healthy for as long as possible. I used to do intermittent fasting when younger without knowing that it was that. Now that I am older I am trying as much as possible to do it, but with health issues and medications it is not easy.
Totally understand. Ultimately the best approach is to listen to our bodies. Thank you for your support. 🙏😁
Thank you so much for telling us about obtaining health care in France. While I’m not in a foreign country, I spend 6 months a year in a small coastal town in Maine. We are very much a remote location and finding doctors and dentists has been a challenge. There just aren’t enough to go around or they aren’t taking new patients. It has been a lesson in frustration lol! We are picking away at it just as you are. I’m happy you are having success! 😁
Best of luck with it! 😁
Cecilia is so pretty, and really glow 😍
🙏😁
Great seeing you guys again looking healthy and happy in the 2nd phase of your life in your lovely new home! Staying focused and balanced is the key and eating in season helps. Buddhism helped me wake up to my true self and ayurveda taught me how to listen to my body when things are off key. It's been 2y6rs since I made a lifestyle change and it's been for the better because am more in tune with my body/mind/spirit. Balance keeps us all harmony with all of life...including animals and nature. We hope to visit Nice/Paris in Sept. and it would have been nice to see you folks. Perhaps, another visit. Nathaniel is very down to earth and he's very wise for his age thank to his parents. Namaste and I look forward to another upload soon. Blessings.
Thank you so much and all the very best to you! 🙏😁
Ha Cecilia, I get it! At 67 I still don’t like working out 50% of the time. But I get up and ride for 7 miles and love when it ends and feel better!
So I’ve been traveling to France to visit our vacation home there for over 29 years. The last thing I’m interested in is Iintermittent fasting and mixing smoothies. What about the French way of eating-light breakfast, sensible lunch and dinner. No snacking. No gluttonous portions. Eating at the same times everyday. All fresh, local food whether prepared at home or out. Leave the new fangled gimmicky approach to eating in the US.
Nothing gimmicky about NOT eating and letting the body do what it's supposed to do.
@@BeneaththeSurfaceYTexactly! When we fast, our bodies begin healing themselves! Everyone should give IF a try for at least a month! Then see if they think it’s a gimmick. I feel so much better when I intermittent fast.
Cecilia is so adorable. My favorite way of working out was yoga . When I turned 40 I started going to classes 4 times a week . Then I added daily laps in the pool. Those were good times.
May be that is an idea ? ❤❤❤
👍😁
I love the Medical Medium's Heavy Metal Detox Smoothie. Getting the heavy metals out of my brain and liver has made a tremendous improvement in my health, along with his other protocols. You're so right, we have to take care of our health every day and on all levels, according to our own body's needs. I'm 72 but don't have the health issues friends and family my age have.
That’s amazing. Excellent for you. Very curious now about this smoothie variation!
@@BeneaththeSurfaceYTSiri brought up the recipe for the smoothie when I asked for the Medical Medium’s heavy metal detox smoothie recipe. Also, great information about it as well.
Yes, I practice intermittent fasting also . I make smoothies and use power greens then add flax, chia, collagen, pomegranate powder and fruits. I love it. Your gym looks great and you have a lovely area to walk outside. A healthy life in France. To Our Health ❣️
Thanks for sharing, and yes, to our health! 🙏😁
Same here,plannig to live long and healthy :) . And you have to think early in your life about it not later. Thank you for the video!😀
Indeed! Thank you so much right back. 🙏😁
My Go to Smoothie Recipe is lots of Spinach, Strawberries( not a lot), frozen avocado chunks, almond butter, and plant milk, you wont even taste the spinach the almond butter and strawberry mask it . Its so good
Nice!
So happy that you both are finding your new life. As the saying goes, you can only eat the elephant one bite at a time. Giving yourselves the space and time to make the best decisions that suit you will pay off. Your video is proof that those choices are working!
My question is, are there things about your previous life in the US that you miss? There is so much wrong here but I’d like to think there are truly good things that even an idyllic life in Europe cannot duplicate.
Thank you so much for your support. That’s a bit of a loaded question. We are still thinking of doing a live Q&A, and perhaps can cover that then. Thanks again!
@@BeneaththeSurfaceYT Hey Josh, appreciate that and totally understand. I look forward to a live Q&A!
@@conniegalati3926 👍😁
@@BeneaththeSurfaceYT I too would love to hear your prospective. I love to see that you are both thriving in your new country and home.
great video:)
Thanks so much! 🙏😁
nathaniel youre so lucky to have cecilia as a mother my god!
I’ll pass on the message… 😁
Cecilia is speaking English with a French accent!! So beautiful ❤️
Haha, I guess speaking Spanish was a good thing. 😆 Thanks!
¡Qué lindo escucharlos! Estoy descubriendo los ayunos, y la verdad fue mucho más fácil de lo que imaginaba. ¡Salud, con 🧉 desde Holanda!

Thank you for sharing your experience!
Could you make a video about France’s Tax! How do you navigate around it especially the property tax? Cheers!
Thank you, and yes, perhaps when I sweep again through different aspects of living here in France. Thank you for your support. 🙏😁
Lovely
Thank you! 🙏😁
I do intermittent fasting, too.
Love this holistic approach to life ❤
Still waiting for inflammation to go down. Have osteo issues. Doing a lot of stretches!
💪😁👍
Working out is also important for your bone health. Before you know it you’re looking at osteopenia or osteoporosis in your 50s…. Find the weight bearing exercises you enjoy & have fun! Great video, thank you for sharing.
Great point. Thank you! :)
Thanks for another great video. I'd love to know what type of coffee machine you have. We're looking to switch from a drip machine. 😊
Sage Barista Express. It's a Beast!! :)
I love your smoothie recipe. I will be trying that! Have you ever tried soaking your chia seeds before adding them to the smoothie? Some say it’s better for digestion. Just a thought!
Yes, my wife does that with alternative yogurt. Delicious!
Great video. Love all your videos.
Green Drink Smoothie
2/3 of the blender kale or spinach, 1/3 a mix of mango and or pineapple
two pitted dates
smallish hunk of peeled ginger or a squeeze of chopped ginger
water up to the top of greens
2 Tablespoons of lemon or juice of 1 lemon.
1 to 2 Tbsp of flax meal optional
May add a frozen banana (peeled) or a little juice if you like it sweeter.
Blend in high speed blender. Makes 2 huge green drinks or 4.5 smaller ones.
Thank you for the support. And for the very cool recipe! 🙏😁
I am doing intermittent fasting for a while now , not every day but few days a week but am conscious of what I eat when I am not on that .
I also do not like exercise although I am active . Recently I am doing bouncing , yes with a trampoline and it really is an easy and great way to feel energetic while it is great for each cell of your body . Try it !
Another great exercise is HIIT( high-intensity interval training ) . Please do your research . You may like that one too .
Thank you for the video as always .
Cecilia looks great with her new makeup btw .
As for smoothie recipes , the Nama cold press juicer comes with great smoothie recipes .
Great tips, thanks!
I finally found wholeness after reading book “The Sun Always Pierces Through”
Sounds like a great book. Thanks for sharing. 🙏
I think staying healthy AS WE AGE is the important thing. My father died at 93 living a full life and my mom died at 97 with a pretty clear head, both my parents were always active and ate well. I'm now 63 and have been traveling, mostly along to Europe lately. You need plenty of energy to do that. I sure don't feel like when I was in my 30's but I try to take care of myself. I will face aging bravely as my parents did. It is not a monster. It is a reality of life.
I am a weirdo and love exercise- I love the flow state I get in doing my Pilates, Yoga and strength training. I find my mind works better during and after exercise. 2) I do green juices and smoothies a lot during the spring and summer- it's like a tonic! I juice greens in my garden: dandelion, fennel, along with an apple and a couple of slices of ginger. You almost don't need coffee! 3) All.of this so I can walk and talk with my friends and enjoy living in my corner of the world.
That sounds amazing. Love hearing all of that. 😁 You are an inspiration!
I am a great advocate of IF - I have lost over 50 pounds reduced dangerously high inflammatory levels and am close to reversing my diabetes - I’m also a strong advocate of strength training and keeping active - muscle health is critical as we age I recommend you listen to Dr Gabrielle Lyons and Professor Ben Bikman. Keeping insulin levels low is important so prioritising protein good fats and fibre at my meals is key - love your channel

I love your videos and in this latest one, about 13 minutes into it, I hear this wonderful music! What is it? Please share . . . Thanks.
Thank you. 🙏That would be a track on Artlist!
Just in case you are not aware, it is not recommended to mix bananas and berries together in a smoothie. The concern has been raised is a recent research study that indicated that eating bananas and berries together could reduce some of the phytonutrient benefits in the berries. It is therefore best to eat them separately, and not blended together. There is a Dr. Greger UA-cam video on this topic that should be helpful in case you are interested. A solution can be to to heat the bananas to 70•c for 2 minutes in some pineapple juice or lemon juice and then let them cool down, mash them and freeze them in cubes. These cubes could be added when preparing the smoothie. This can prevent alterations to the flavonoids (at least by 80%).
Thank you for sharing your great content! 🤗
Awesome to know, thank you so much for sharing. 🙏
I was going to say the same thing!
That mix of bananas, strawberries, blueberries and mango is my favorite.

Hey Cecilia, love your channel, i am a health fanatic myself, i became one after getting sick 6 years ago, i studied nutrition extensively, let me tell you one thing most people get wrong, juicing is not healthy at all and i am not even talking about fruit juice where u end up drinking 50 g of sugar in a cup, even vegetables, some are toxic when juiced like spinach. You are taking away one thing thats beneficial that is fiber, that slows down your absorption or sugar but also toxins. Why is it anything that human comes up with end up hurting us lol. Also i disagree about mental that it comes first, cause your brain connected with stomach, i noticed i am a mess mentally when i am sick and when i am not i bounce back from stress easily
I’ll pass on the message to her… 😁
Thanks 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

Stretch your body as you walk through the house. This helps with the exercise later.
Great idea :)
I'm curious about the juicer you found...
