What We Discuss In This Episode:
True beauty emanates from the inside out, yet, when you look in the mirror, you see grey hair, dropping or baggy eyes, thin lip lines, and drooping jowls. You see every wrinkle, every dark spot, and every scar. You only see your looks. You don’t see your true beauty.
It’s truly a privilege to age. Many years ago, people didn’t live to the ripe old age we do now. The new 60 is the old 40 you know. So now, with a longer life span, our focus really has to be focusing on the inside out.
For now, I want to talk about lifestyle and mindset. Here are some quick Anti-aging Health Hacks to help with your beauty from the inside out. It’s so important.
- Drink more water and stay hydrated
- Eat more whole, nutrient-dense foods rich in vitamins, minerals & Omega 3’s
- Drink less alcohol – or none at all 🙂
- Move your body, and break a sweat daily.
- Rest more, and get adequate restorative sleep.
- Manage your stress.
- Avoid excessive sun exposure
- Do NOT smoke. Ever.
- Laugh more.
- Get outside and take in nature.
So back to the vanity portion and aging.
We are so messed up by what we watch and choose to look at. Intellectually, we know that photos of celebrities, models, and other so-called famous people — are photoshopped or they have had work done on themselves constantly. We don’t have a lot of reasonable standards for aging from seeing all these beautiful well-known people who just don’t look their age (hello facelifts, photoshop, and injections). Because of this, when you look in the mirror and your image doesn’t match the manufactured faces you’re constantly bombarded with, it messes with you.
As we find ourselves not just in midlife, but also in the midst of a seemingly never-ending pandemic – it’s important to have a routine – it pulls you together each and every day. Get up and shower, if that’s what you do normally in the mornings. Put on a little makeup, do your hair – whatever it takes for YOU to feel your best. And then fuel your body on the inside too. Hydrate, eat right. Many of us have found it hard to find our sweet spot with all the remote working and lockdown, but here’s my pro tip on that – carry on your normal routine, just as if things are normal. Do some meditation, journaling, things to take care of your mental health. Then add in some exercise and healthy eating to take care of your physical wellbeing. Then be sure to have a beauty routine so you’re looking and feeling good about yourself from the inside out. There’s just something magical about putting on decent clothes, and a swipe of lipstick, or mascara – whichever makes you feel good about yourself. It makes you feel put together.
What is most important to remember is that the aging process is normal and natural. You need to shift from a standard that’s unobtainable – filled with advertisements and unreal expectations – to working on your true beauty – and that comes from good health, kindness, purposefulness and gratitude. Replace those negative thoughts with positive thoughts. Your confidence and self-worth will improve some of those vanity metrics when you think that way.
