    Yes, … these are strange days indeed!
    I keep trying to remind myself that the nuclear plant of heat from within is also a good indicator of the energy I have within. LOL As they say, it’s all a matter of how we choose to look at it, and there’s socio-anthropological research to back me up on this one. Not all cultures view this time of life as a bad thing and perception can actually alter how women experience it.
    You are so right: slow and easy wins the day. After two years, in which my body transformed (in a bad way) and I lost track of fundamental skills in basic movement and yoga, I am inching my way back … and I’ve lost 8 pounds so far!!
    When I get to BAM 2016 in Vegas in April, I will fit into my jeans again.

    Excellent advice. As we age there is a chance to get hurt more easily, feet, knees, back etc, so going slow and steady is the way for sure!

    This is such great, actionable and age-appropriate advice for those of us 50- (or 60-) plus! You make it sound achievable by showing us how you did (and are doing) it. Thanks for the encouragement!

    Not there yet, but I expect to journey into this phase of my life within the next year, or so. I have always enjoyed exercise. Fitness is as much a part of my life as sleeping and eating. I thoroughly enjoy it, and view it as therapeutic as well. Thank you for this great information. I really enjoyed it.
