As we get older, it shows. I really like the wisdom part and the being comfortable in my own skin as I age. Unfortunately, my skin, face, hair and body seem to be running away from what I used to look like faster and faster. At some point Aunty will just give up, but for now, Aunty will invest time, effort and money to slow the process down.
Here are a few pointers along the way:
Kapiolani Women’s Center often has classes on beauty and health. Aunty’s favorite is TaiChi. I have been in the beginners class for about 3 years now. I am learning this wonderful exercise VERY slowly. It has given me very good balance.
Currently, Aunty takes 4 supplements for maintenance of good health. Two are the must takes. Intestinal Correctional Formula #1 (I know Wanda, too much information) and Protandim. Super Food and Strontium are taken when and if I remember. So far, Aunty feels pretty good and healthy which equals a very wonderful life.
Learn something new. Eat at different places. Try a new hair style. Wear pretty earrings. Wear lipstick. Simple things like these make you feel better, and look better.
The PACE exercises (see Exercise tab under Health and Wellness) are good for building lung capacity. It is good to be able to have strong lungs and endurance.
Currently, Aunty uses NeriumAD every night on her face, arms, and neck. Because it is so easy to use (spread on clean damp skin at night and rinse off in the morning), Aunty never misses a night of applying it. The results are really good – or maybe people are really nice when they say that I don’t look my age. My skin looks nice and my lipstick doesn’t “bleed” outside my lip line anymore!
Dress up. Sometimes Aunty over dresses. We used to enjoy playing dress up when we were little girls. Now that we are older “girls”, enjoy and dress up! You will look faahbulous, dahling.
