Seven Ways to Feeling Younger While Going Though Menopause

Baby Boomers and Gen X'ers will not be the "on to greener pastures" personalities. You, Ladies, will be the ones that fight everyday to stay health and happy and connected. We are seriously not dead yet!You have decided that now is the time to take back the control of your life, your happiness, your strength, your dreams. Good for you, and we will be there for you in every way possible.
Besides fighting to keep our figure after or during "The Change"
there are ways we can still keep our edge. This allows other people dealing with us on a sporadic or daily basis to look up to us instead of though us. Let's examine;
The 7 secret tips to keep us staying younger
1) Exercise. The old adage that you need to" move it or loose it" still holds true. If we don't bend and stretch and lift and walk, our bodies will not be able to do so on command. Remember, this is our transportation for the next 30-50 years, so schedule maintenance on it.
2) Trade in and learn a new phone every year or every year and one half. Not only will you be proud of yourself for learning all about the new upgrades, but you will be thrilled to know how to use them. This lesson is good for not falling behind in this quickly changing technology environment.
3) Try a new hair style or color. If you have had the same hair stylist for years and years, it might be time to ask around and see who other people recommend. Go in for a consult with a different stylist, be open minded, ask what they would do, tip them. You can then either book an appointment or interview someone else.
4) Visit a Day Spa. Make an appointment to get those toe nails under control, and ask about Botox,facial fillers or peels. If you are not comfortable in your skin, it shows. And there are lots and lots of non-surgical products out there that help you look younger and fresher.
5) Give Back. You are one smart cookie, with lots of experience. You have run a house hold, navigated new computer software, and negotiated the soccer team fund raiser. Find out what gives you a thrill to be a part of or help with, and work it into the schedule to do so. Everybody benefits.
6) Eat Clean. Wow, if anything shows on your face it's this one. Eat lots and lots of vegetables, fruit, sprouted grain breads, and stream or ocean fish. Hydrate like crazy. Super Greens is my drink of choice. Clean eating shows with clear and glowing skin, less wrinkles, shiny eyes, and less belly fat.
7) If you haven't worn it in two years, donate it. This doesn't include your formal wear, or newer business suits or designer bags and shoes. It does include the dresses with shoulder pads, mom jeans, and MC Hammer harem pants.
We have no desire to "go back" to those worries and experiences in our 20 and 30's. Those times shaped us into what we are today. But we also still have a lot of living to do. So lets be the best we can be. Healthy, happy and showing it.
To a Healthy and Happy Menopause,
