<\/div>\n\n\n\n

1. <\/em>Move your body no matter what. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Your joints and muscles need you to live your best, active life more than ever. Get the steps in, strength train, raise the heart rate, and repeat regularly. If you don\u2019t give a fxck about your body. Who will?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. <\/em>Did you drink your water today?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We may love our regular support drinks, oat milk lattes, matchas, Diet Coke, and all, but water is the ultimate win. Ask your primary care physician. I promise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. <\/em>Did you walk into a room and forget what the heck you needed to remember when you walked in? <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Me too boo, that\u2019s why it\u2019s key to keep our brains sharp. Never stop absorbing knowledge, reading, and writing, and pop some fish oil while you\u2019re at it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. <\/em>Brain food is our friend. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Keep your protein game strong, and eat a well-balanced diet, fiber and fruits included. This may hurt, but eliminating processed sugar is game-changing. Mental nutrition matters just as much as physical nutrition. Keeping your brain sharp with daily brain games like Sudoku<\/a> or Wordle<\/a> can improve focus, memory, and problem-solving skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. <\/em>For the Ladies. Perimenopause-shmenipause. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If you can focus on making and having healthy lifestyle changes, it will help you better navigate this natural process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. <\/em>Get your beauty sleep, beauties! <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s no shame in listening to your rain machine and getting your nap on. We absolutely need to get sufficient sleep. Our cognitive function depends on it. If not, scientists say we\u2019re legitimately aging our brain! Eek! Grab a pillow and rest, neeeow!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. <\/em>Take it easy on those espresso martinis and the bubbly, babe.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

But if you must, keep it to a minimum. The older we get, the more alcohol negatively affects us, and the buzzed recovery time puts our liver through the ringer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. <\/em>Our digestive tract just isn’t what it used to be. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

It slows down. Good thing developing healthy strategies helps, but you still may want to pass on certain foods, caffeine, and spices. The gas, bloating, and constipation it causes are working against you, not with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. <\/em>You don\u2019t have to have or be in a midlife crisis. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Misnomer. It\u2019s not an inevitable experience. Your maturity is giving, growing, and glowing with stability and joy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10. <\/em>Protect your peace.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11. <\/em>Prioritize stress management.<\/strong><\/span> <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

At this stage of the game, we may have more years behind us than in front of us. Cliche, but we\u2019re too blessed to be stressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

12. <\/em>If you\u2019re a parent, you are completely aware of how time flies. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Be intentional about spending quality time with your children. Those tender years don’t give us a do-over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

13. <\/em>The DND mindset is real. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Turn the phone off, take a break from scrolling, digital detoxes are our friends and help kick our asses into productive gear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

14. <\/em>Be kind to your nervous system and cut out the noise. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Create a sanctuary in your life resonant of a gently scented candle with an Epsom salt bubble bath, and enjoy the quiet moments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

15. <\/em>Say yes to downloading more calm meditation apps.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Less to whatever is causing comparison to beauty standards and anxiety apps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

16. <\/em>Adopt a regular \u201ccardio\u201d routine.  <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The bedroom is your gym, too, ya know. These days, we have a deeper understanding of our bodies and desires, plus more confidence. Not to mention, but totally mentioning it here, the benefits are adding years to our life, aiding our immune system, and increasing our heart health. Should I go on?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

17. <\/em>Be mindful of what you\u2019re putting in your body. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This isn\u2019t just food-related. Think people and information too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

18. <\/em>Let\u2019s go dopamine!<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Get a hobby, take the Disneyland trip, enroll in the dance class, do something fun outside of your work life. It keeps us young! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

19. <\/em>Consistent skin care routines are our friends. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s crucial, tbh. We vote for vitality and mitigating age-related changes all day, every day! Consider a skincare routine to highlight\u00a0your natural beauty – this includes\u00a0serum for dense brows<\/a>, scalp treatment\u00a0for hair growth, organic soaps for skin and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

20. <\/em>The gen z\u2019ers can teach us a few things; be open to them. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s ok to listen, learn and grow from the youngsters with \u201crizz<\/a>\u201d. They keep our minds fresh and help us in an ever-evolving world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

21. <\/em>Will it.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Minus being morbid, invest the time in creating a will so you\u2019re not a burden to your loved ones. It is what it is, and that\u2019s just that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

22. <\/em>The little things matter.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

And they actually aren\u2019t that little.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

23. <\/em>Nature is refueling and recharging.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Touch some grass, walk in some sand, and bask in the sunshine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

24. <\/em>It\u2019s still not too late to tackle the goals you\u2019ve always dreamed of. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The dreamer’s disease never hurt anyone. Many greats don\u2019t obtain stardom until their forties\u2014just sayin’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

25. <\/em>Never let the naysayers get you down. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

It’s a waste of your time and energy; you\u2019ve got way better things to focus on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

26. <\/em>Visit your mom and dad. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t just send a text, and don\u2019t just call them. In a world of digital communication, it\u2019s still way cooler to value human connection over everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

27.<\/em> Embrace the pills.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Keep a cute pill box handy, and remember to take your vitamins. Duh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

28. <\/em>Recharge your battery with self-care. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If this means curling up in bed with a clay mask on, eating chocolate, and binging your fave show. Then do that. Whatever makes you happy, baby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

29. <\/em>Treat yo\u2019 self. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We can\u2019t take the material things with us, but while we\u2019re here, it doesn\u2019t mean we can\u2019t look good in a new pair of shoes\/sneakers, Alo<\/a> leggings, and something fancy from Sephora.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

30. <\/em>Protecting your peace and having boundaries won\u2019t age you, but the opposite will. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Plus, high cortisone levels don\u2019t go with your outfit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

31. <\/em>Go ahead, get your eyes checked. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Our physical vision may decrease, but your life vision board can still have fresh eyes, insights, and grand ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

32. <\/em>Heal your traumas. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Break generational curses. Go to therapy. Go to a spiritual retreat<\/a>. Do whatever inner work it takes. But just do it. Sorry, not sorry, there\u2019s just no way around this one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

33. <\/em>Always show up for yourself.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Prioritizing your physical, mental, social, emotional, and relational needs is a life-changing girl math formula that equals self-respect and empowerment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

34. <\/em>If you have a partner, keep communication key. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

When this dissipates, so does the relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

35. <\/em>Find your tribe, love them hard. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

When you have a circle of people who are positive, exude good energy, are smart with emotional intelligence, and inspire you\u2014Whew! Community and camaraderie are gold and are ingredients to a long life and one worth living.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

36. <\/em>Don\u2019t live in the past; you\u2019re not going that way. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The secret sauce is living and being present in all you do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

37. <\/em>If Resentment and anger live rent-free in your head, give them an eviction notice and free yourself. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

You liters deserve to free yourself from the BS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

38. <\/em>Brownies (In moderation) over frownies.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Yep, an occasional sweet treat can improve our mood and give us the cognitive function boost we need! For some, investing in veneers in Los Angeles<\/a> can subtly address chips or discoloration and support smile confidence. Also, finding joy and positivity by actively choosing to be optimistic instead of furrowing our brows in pessimism does the body and mind good. More feel-good dopamine and serotonin, less negativity and deprivation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

39. <\/em>Say it with your whole chest. You are enough. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Gone are the days when we don\u2019t know who we are and what we bring to the table. We have experience and wisdom behind us. Lessons and blessings to testify to. Setbacks that became comebacks. Gray hair, wrinkles, laugh lines, and stretch marks are our strength, life stories, and our rites of passage. OWN IT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

40. <\/em>Now lean in, embrace this aging like a fine wine era, and go be great!<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
