Older Isn't Weaker. It's Wiser | Dr. Andrew Weil

Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1913DM For decades, Andrew Weil chased love in the wrong place. In other people. While ignoring the foundation that had to come first: loving himself. He dropped out of medicine when people thought he was crazy, explored unconventional paths, and got zero reinforcement from the world. Then came years of depression. The shift happened gradually in his 40s. Physical activity. Diet changes. Meditation and breathing practice. A natural maturation that came with age. The depression lifted. And with it came a clarity he'd never had before: he could finally say no to things and people that didn't serve him. What surprised him most? Getting older isn't decline. It's deepening. People become more complex, more resilient, less easily thrown off balance. They build equilibrium. They access wisdom. And if we actually valued older people instead of shutting them away, we'd realize they're repositories of something we desperately need.
