HOW TO EMBRACE AGEING

If you see wrinkles appearing don't feel that your skin has failed you or rush to have botox, don't wish you could turn back the years. Accept the natural progression of life and be grateful for the years you've been given. 

I recently looked up words for ageing + came across the following: crumbling, antediluvian, cast-off, dated, decayed, hackneyed, moth-eaten (!), rusty, stale, unoriginal, worn-out, even plain - done! There were no beautiful words to describe ageing. No wonder none of us wants to age?!

I once had three 100 year old pear trees in my garden + they were magnificent. In full blossom they were the most wonderful, magical sight because they were SO old. 

Why don't we see humans in the same way? All the years lived, all the words spoken, sights seen + smiles given. Wrinkles show an extraordinary life! A story of survival. 

We are here to grow + evolve. There's an inevitability about it. Life is a blessing yet there are no guarantees of another day. 

The following simple things work to replenish most skins: 

• a healthy, mainly plant-based diet
• water
• daily exercise
• positive thinking
• meditation
• 100% natural skincare (of course)
• a loving heart.

Your skin reflects what's going on inside you. It will let you know if there's something you need to address. Thank it for it's loving messages + treat your skin + yourself with absolute kindness. It will show in your wrinkles... if you're lucky to live long enough to have them!
