Hey baby boomers – have
you fallen victim to “feeling-old” disease? Are you gazing at your own wrinkling
reflection in the mirror wondering, who that person is? Where has
the time gone? Have you become grouchier and grumpier over the years? Worse,
are you feeling like life has passed you by or that you’re done?
If any of this sounds
like you, you’re not alone. A huge portion of our population has similar
symptoms, and lucky for you, your life is of abundant value on this planet Its seemingly
hidden gifts cannot be found elsewhere because they are inside of YOU.
It doesn’t cost thousands of dollars or the cutting and pasting of
invasive cosmetic procedures o invigorate yourself, to honor the wisdom that
you are. It’s already yours right NOW.
At 72 years young, life
coach & wellness expert Veronica Entwistle, author of the newly released
book “My Near-Life Experience,” shares four proven steps to transforming
your baby boomer behind into a younger, youthful and energetic you.
“Instead of the standard
‘lose 20 lbs’ New Year’s resolutions, do something different this year,” says Entwistle.
“By changing your focus from improving your exterior to confronting the
root problem and working on improving the inner you you will exponentially
increase your momentum toward your goal. It’s amazing how many exterior problems
can be reduced or simply just when you work with the stuff real consciousness
is made of.”
Step 1: Drop the “I’m Too Old” loop
·
Thoughts are things.
They cast energy. Why do you think its called spell-ing? If you keep thinking
it and saying it, then it becomes reality.
·
Don’t blunt your
identity. It took you a long time to get to where you are. You are here
and here is where you are! There is power in your emerging and ripening
wisdom. Honor your path to this moment. Hey,
if you hadn’t done all you did, you wouldn’t be here as you now. Get it?
Step 2: There’s no such thing as “It’s Too Late”
·
It’s never too late for
nothing! Where is this limiting conversation coming from? Quiet that voice and
get on with your bucket list!
·
If you haven’t created
one yet, fill that pail with ideas NOW!
·
If you did create your
bucket list, did you create it with your purpose, not someone else’s idea of
your purpose, in mind?
·
It’s not all about
jumping out of airplanes and eating strange foods in odd lands. Did you include
wisdom on it? Did you include the unfoldment of your identity?
Step 3: Feel the Fear & Do It Anyway
·
Fear stands for false
evidence appearing real. FALSE EVIDENCE.
Fear is the number one factor standing in the way of fulfilling your life’s
purpose, and it’s not even real!
·
Your body is a library
filled with reactions. Track some of those fears, or beliefs to earlier
life experiences. Find out where they are stored in your cells.
Lift or coax them out and look at them. Are they real?
·
Watch your body begin to
renew its agility a little at a time.
·
Think back to your
childhood and how you dared yourself to explore activities like riding a
bike, jogging, hiking, vacationing, dancing, etc. Even if the activities
are less vigorous now you can experience the exhilaration and drive to deepen
into you, your courage, your wisdom, and your understanding.
Step 4: Learn to Love Yourself
·
It’s in our human nature
to assess our lives severely. Even great gurus experience much of life
through trial and error. Slipping into reaction and defense helps no one,
yet everyone does it. What have you learned from your reactiveness?
What have you learned about your goals?
·
Track some of your
successes with being kind, forgiving, loving, and receiving.
·
Many individuals, both
young and old, have a hard time achieving this step, but it’s never too late to
begin working on this level of self-care and acceptance.
·
Focus on all of your
positive attributes and manifest them into a greatness you literally beam into
every place you show up as you.
·
The more you learn to
love yourself, the more the world around you will reflect that love.
Today I wander through musing my way through my connections by phone, with their strings of intelligence, whether they are from this life, this experience, or other lives and other experiences, strings with tiny wee electronic velcro connections, I muse. We are so woven together in this fabric of happenings and reactions. People I talked to today are warriors, truly bonded in love and kindness, charged up to seek higher Guidance, for routes out of complex empathetic attachments and patterns they probably inherited or have from old experiences so they can deepen into their true natures, and use their gifts for our world. A kind of politics.
