#103 Growing/Getting Older (and Why I Like It)

Because I teach movement classes, people often talk about getting 'old', injuries and making out that it's downhill from here. And I find myself saying "please don't write yourself off...".

So I wanted to share my feelings and perspectives on growing older. — I'd love to know how you feel too. Why not email me at [email protected]?

In this episode I speak about:

• how do you feel about growing older?
• society's labels
• looking after ourselves; with massage, nutrition, easing stress and more
• midlife awakening not crisis
• synaptic pruning (so good to learn about this!)
• finding what LIGHTS you up
• Sagescence — becoming a sage/a wise woman (see more in the link below)

Themes: ageing, sagescence, motherhood, boundaries, wellbeing, burlesque

I mention Jane Hardwicke-Collings and Sagescence, Regena Thomashauer and her book 'Pussy; A Reclamation', Episode #18 of my podcast about healing my gut/skin, Talia B's incredible massage therapy, Episode #98 with Minna Dubin about Mum Rage, and Episode #25 with Angela Sellar about Style and Make Up.

At the end, I share a poem by Danielle Doby.
