Mindfulness is the key to everything, and this is especially true when one approaches the cultural portal known as "middle age." This is when people mindlessly believe that it's normal to get diseases and start to fall apart. But the truth is that midlife is the time when people need to wake up and be far more mindful about their everyday habits and thinking patterns.

A woman's body image is absolutely paramount to her health.

You don't need to deteriorate with advancing age.

Your emotions are your inner guidance system. They alone will let you know whether you are living in an environment of biochemical health or in an environment of biochemical distress. Understanding how your thoughts and your emotions affect every single hormone and cell in your body, and knowing how to change them in a way that is health-enhancing, gives you access to the most powerful and empowering health-creating secret on earth.

By becoming mindful of our cultural programming, we can step out of it.

Our desires are the way that the healing life force comes through us and replenishes our bodies.

The more you move toward what makes you feel good, and move away from those things which bring you distress and pain, the healthier you will be.
