What can your body do after 50?   Leave a comment

 

Is it possible that you can get in the best shape of your life after 50?  It depends, were you once a super healthy, Olympic status fitness master?  If the answer is yes, well it might be kind of hard to top that but not impossible.  If the answer is no, then hell yeah its possible!  How bad do you want it and how much time and energy are you willing to put in to get it?

Can you imagine reinventing your life right now?  If you could be as fit as you always wanted, what would that feel like?  What would you do that you can’t do now or are too afraid to do?  How is your health right now?  What if it was perfect?

Is this too hard for you to imagine?

Ever heard of Sister Madonna Buder who is 86 and has completed over 360 triathlons and 45 Iron man competitions?  And get this, she only begun running at age 48. iron-nun-madonna-buder-2

 

Or how about Tao Porchon-Lynch age 98 who still teaches yoga.

Of course we can’t forget about our ageless beauty Annette Larkins annette_larkins_garden

who was mentioned in one of our earlier post here.

Believe it or not, Annette is over 70 years of age and on zero medication.  Although not her intentions, she pretty much stopped the aging process by juicing and eating a raw vegan diet for over 20 years.

Now I think we can all agree that these women aren’t official super heroes.  Nope.  Just beautiful spirits that once made a decision to give themselves more out of life.  Anyone of these women  could be you.  All you have to do is decide you want more out for yourself, more out of your body.  You can still do amazing things with this life and with yourself.  As a yoga teacher, I’ve seen amazing transformations with people with sciatic nerve and back pain become pretty much pain free.  I’ve seen people who couldn’t even put one leg up on a chair, now can lift their leg past their chest.  Sure it may have taken a lot of effort and consistency and maybe even a few months of practice but the pay off was so worth it.

Just decide yes and the answers will come!  I’m serious say it.  Say yes I want more out of my life.  I want to be healthy!  I want to be fit!  I want lots of energy!  I want amazing things for myself.  Say I am worthy!

You are worthy.

Just decide and watch the answers come.

What Will You Look Like In 30 Years?   3 comments

That’s a question many of us wonder about ourselves as the clock ticks.  Will we still look youthful and vibrant, or will our skin sag and our energy wain?  Will we age gracefully, or will we be popping heart meds and high blood pressure meds like candy?

Annette Larkins has found the fountain of youth.  While I’m sure you’re thinking creams and elixirs, you may be surprised to find out what she attributes her age-defying looks to.  Wondering just how old she is and how she does it?  Click on the video link below to find out…

 

Can you imagine looking and feeling the way Annette does at her age?!  One of the greatest indicators of where our bodies will be, as the years progress, is our diet.  We’ve all heard it before.  You are what you eat.  Calivegans takes that message to heart and so does this inspiring woman.

While calivegans haven’t made it all the way to the raw foods path, we think we’re doing pretty good!

See you in 30 years!
