This is a diary of the healthy lifestyle goals that my son, Chris, and I are making together each month. Since it takes 21-30 days to develop a new habit, making a goal for the month ahead is an effective strategy.
The buddy system is one of the main ways to get motivated. I’ve always found that if I say out loud to someone what I plan on doing, I’m more likely to do it. Because if I say I will, I feel responsible to follow through.
Age doesn’t matter. It’s never too late. You can always make progress and even reverse the signs of aging!
In an attempt to alleviate stress, Chris’s goal last month was to start taking Olly Goodbye Stress supplements, exercise as much as possible, add yoga to his exercise routine, and get away for mini vacations on weekends.
My goal last month was to use my pedometer to measure my walks. I also wanted to experiment with Health for iPhone by carrying my phone in my purse, a hip pouch or maybe even an armband…and still finish up the summer with weekly outdoor swimming.
Age doesn’t matter. Why? Because it’s the present moment right now that matters. Who you are right now is special. What’s special about where you are right now in life? Think about what you appreciate about the age you are right now, and please let us know by leaving a comment below this blog post! And I mean everybody, no matter your age. Thank you for being you!
From the beginning of autumn when it’s still sunny and warm ’til the end of the season when it may even snow, the feeling of fall is in the colors of the earth and the trees. So in the spirit of autumn leaves falling, if we surround ourselves in the changing colors that we see around us we feel in sync with nature. Age doesn’t matter. These colors are a gift to us from our Mother Earth.
Even if the weather is still hot, you can wear your lightweight, cool summer clothes in fall hues, such as: orange, red, rust, mustard yellow, navy, teal, purple, gray and burgundy. The neutral fall colors are the earth tones, such as: chocolate brown, olive green, sage green and camel. These are the colors — from brights to neutrals — to wear all season long.
Navy can take the place of black in your fall outfits. Pantone Color Institute’s executive director Leatrice Eiseman said, “When you move into the classic colors, we know that classics don’t change all that much. Yet we will see or expect a preponderance of certain colors. Sargasso Sea is that staple fall color. Navy is like the new black so to speak. It doesn’t replace black, of course. As navy blues have gained in recent seasons, this is an acknowledgement that this is the mooring of our entire palette.” (For more about Pantone’s A/W 2018 color palettes, read my post “How to Update Your Look with Color in the Fall.”)
What follows is: 1) The meanings of colors; 2) Autumn color combinations; and 3) Outfit ideas using fall colors.
I love my jeans because they’re so comfortable. If you like denim too (and even if you aren’t crazy for denim, I assume you must have something made of denim) age doesn’t matter. Denim creates a youthful, casual vibe. It goes with just about everything, it dresses down anything, and the following style tip opens up your options even more.
A smile is always the best thing you can wear of course, but I’ve compiled a list of what I consider essential pieces for a versatile wardrobe. Age doesn’t matter.
Although you’ve heard many times what you have to have in your wardrobe, I’m not telling you that you have to have anything in particular. Because what you wear is totally your choice.
But there are items of clothing that go with most anything and everything in your closet. And if you have those basic pieces, it should be quite easy for you to find something to wear every day.
