LIVE FULLY AT AGE 50 AND BEYOND

Sandra Miniere, Personal Life Coach

  1. Connection, Connection, Connection – Develop relationships that make you feel good. Reach out to others: Let them know you and get to know them. When you make relationships a priority, you will have the support you need during challenging times.
  2. Make gratitude a way of life – When disappointments happen, focus on what is working and what you do have. Each time you give thanks for something or someone, you replace lack and loss with fullness and optimism. Notice and appreciate the small things that make you feel good every day.
  3. Live your life as an adventure – The eternal child in you is curious, open and adventurous. Try new things that interest you—take courses, travel, join a club, and so much more. Challenge the beliefs that limit you. A youthful spirit can be your companion at any age.
  4. Know who you are and what you want – After 50+ years of life experiences, you know something about yourself—values, beliefs, talents, desires and priorities. The beginning of each new decade is a time to assess what makes you feel positive and alive.
  5. Actively pursue your vision and goals – Once you are clear about what you want, create goals that feel exciting. You will be motivated and inspired to accomplish them. Once the goal is specific and clear, develop an action plan to accomplish it. Design the next chapter of your life.
  6. Be aware of your options throughout the aging process – Identify the community services, government assistance and service providers that are available to help you manage your finances, health, well-being, spirituality and environment. Allow them to help you make the courageous decisions that affect your future.
  7. Focus on the here and now – Make the most of each day. Do not dwell on your past with resentment and regret. You cannot change yesterday; do not allow yesterday to contaminate today and tomorrow. Focus on how you can continually add value to your life at any age.
  8. Simplify – As you reduce your possessions, you will have less to manage. You will have more time and energy to spend on what is important to you. Change or eliminate stressful routine activities and roles too. Less stress and more pleasure retards the aging process.
  9. Participate in your health and wellness – Nutrition and exercise will help your body do what you want it to do.

    Follow a nutrition plan that fuels you. Make wise choices about your food, water, and supplements. They boost the immune system, support digestion, increase energy, detoxify the body, and more.

    Rejuvenate your body with exercise. Design a movement program that is right for you. It is balanced if it includes aerobic, stretching, and weight-bearing exercises. Deep, cleansing breathing is a fundamental exercise that promotes health at any age. Remember to have fun and reevaluate if you do not feel good!

  10. Develop a positive mindset – Acquire beliefs that give you inner peace, an optimistic outlook, gratitude and hope. Participate in experiences that inspire you to be your best. Face each new chapter of your life believing that something positive is a part of the next adventure.
  11. Keep it light with laughter – Do something that puts a smile on your face every day. Let humor and laughter lift your mood, clear away the worry and reduce the stress held in your body. Laughter heals the body and soul.
  12. Build up your resistance to stress – Discover what reduces or removes worry and stress. For example, distract yourself from a stressful situation by meeting a friend, reading a book, watching a movie, going for a walk, taking a yoga class (yoga is appropriate at any age).
