When you think about aging, most people fear aging and dying, rather than embracing what comes naturally in the circle of life. Some go through life ignoring the truth to time until something serious happens and they are forced to grip the reality of it all.
While there are others, who fear aging so much, they will try anything to strip away the truth. There are a lot of products on the market that take advantage of your fears. If you are going to use anything, go as “natural” as you can.

In order to embrace ones age, we all need to take a close look at our personal habits, how we deal with different situations and maybe the lack of acting with a balanced mind. What I mean is, there are those of us who get stressed and eat. This is called comfort foods. It helps sooth us from our disappointments and heartbreaks in life.
Others might find smoking and drinking to be an escape from our everyday worries and problems that build with time. For the most part, people tend to focus on a very small image of their world never seeing the full picture of LIFE… Ones beginning to end…
Everyday Stressors Can Age Us in Many Ways
· Sleepless Nights
· Putting on Weight or Losing Weight
· Health Issues like High Blood Pressure, Eating Disorders
· Depression, Anxiety, Moodiness
· Lack of Concentration
· Inability to Work with Others
The list goes on and on…
After reading today’s article, I want you to use the comment section and post the TOP three causes which you think enhances your age. Whether it’s stress causing premature graying or depression and anxiety causing you to eat or lose sleep.
Which THREE causes do you believe affects you the most?
Remember to look back at your life, not just the here and now, most people see the small image and we want you to grasp the bigger picture of LIFE. Over your lifetime, how did you react to different situations?
Here’s an example:
As a child, I was clumsy and would spill things. The more I was told about it, the more anxiety I felt, and the more it happened. It got to a point that I was fixated on getting everything right. It wasn’t until my mid-twenties I realized I was wound tighter than a rubber band.

Once I realized this and learned to let that glass sit there and not run around with my head cut off trying to do everything myself, in a growing family; that’s when “what people thought and said didn’t bother me as much”. Of course, it took a lot to get to that point, but that was me growing as a person inside.
When you start to embrace your age, you gain so much more.

It doesn’t have to be one or the other. You’re either healthy or not. Life is about growing, learning and yes aging. You’re not going to do it ALL overnight! It’s going to happen over TIME!
So, if you don’t like how you LOOK, FEEL or ACT you’ve got time to change that! Starting with TODAY!
Embracing your age is all about how you perceive yourself. The more you like yourself, accept who you are, the more your age is going to show it.
