Hi! My sister and I just got back from the Ageless Beauty: Yoga & Wellness cruise to Cozumel. Hosted by Cindy Bartz, the yoga cruise had dozens of natural healing classes and events as well as private sessions to choose from. When you meet the instructors, you can see that when you practice wellness techniques age doesn’t matter because they are all glowing with vitality. So what happens at a yoga retreat on the sea? Let me tell you a little about it and share with you what I learned.
The weather wasn’t the greatest because of a storm that passed through, making the waters choppy. That made my first snorkeling adventure a little difficult, but I saw a baby shark and other fascinating sea life and had a fun trip overall.
I am sharing some of the information that I got from yoga classes on the cruise. Take a look and learn about whatever interests you. I hope it is helpful. And if you end up much healthier, come back and let me know!
Yoga Classes that were offered on the cruise:

Age doesn’t matter when you are in good health. Energy is youth. So in the spirit of lifelong health, I am alerting you to beware of dangerous chemicals that have been lurking in American waters for a long time. But they have been allowed to spread, going unreported and unchecked throughout our lifetimes. This is a time to call for transparency on all levels in our society.
Here’s the Scoop:

Recently, my family and I went to hear Dr. Mona Hanna-Attisha talk about her book documenting her experience in uncovering the tragic disaster of the Flint water crisis. As she told the audience what happened in Flint, it became clear that public health and a clean environment are ruled by politics. I am sharing news of this event with you because it is important for lifelong health — for you, your children and your grandchildren. Age doesn’t matter. Cultivating good health early in life improves the odds of living longer, and improving our environment is directly related to human health. What happens to others can spread to you and yours. But there are things you can do about it. You can affect what happens to your body and your environment.
My husband. Russ, is a long-time Commissioner of the Detroit Public Library. He interviewed Dr. Mona onstage at Detroit’s Osborn High School auditorium for the Michigan Humanities Great Michigan Read (GMR) program. I will present some talking points from the interview below. But first, let me introduce you to the GMR program and Dr. Mona.

Taking care of your health is an act of self respect. You know how people say to their loved ones, “Take good care of yourself; be well”? They say that because they love you and they care. They also say that when they see you’re doing something that’s not in the interest of your good health. When you take care of yourself, age doesn’t matter because you last longer. So let’s explore the three ways to take care of yourself: in body, mind and spirit.
