There’s a silver lining to going gray


Ladies...please enjoy your silver threads!

 I love that women world-wide are setting examples to their sisters that it is perfectly natural and very OK to allow their hair to grow into how it was meant to...with some or many strands of silver!

 It shouldn't even take courage.

 It is our natural birthright.  

 I'm glad I made the decision 3 years ago to stop poisoning my scalp, and I have grown to love my silvery-grey-black locks, with much encouragement from hairdressers to keep it this way. So that's how its going to be for me. 

 And how beautiful and chic our Sydney sisters are looking - Mary Kostakidis

Deepening into Elderhood

As questions came up for me this morning,  I heard the call. It ’s been a while since I created space to write, even though in the last 12 months there’s been more time than ever!  Though it’s challenged us all in many ways,  it’s also a gift. A huge transformational time on earth that we in our 3 rd  chapter can experience. Having lived through many decades of change and/or struggle, we can be a source of calm and wisdom for others, and our loved ones.  Numerous people have written inspiring articles and engaged in philosophical conversations about this period in time. For me, I’m focusing on how to stay present, contented and healthy to ride out the next few years of uncertainty. I’m not concerned about where we’re headed as any fear is more detrimental to our health than any virus.  Don’t allow fear to call the shots! Action is also a potent antidote to fear, and here’s one step to start – a True Vitality TEST that you can complete on the Blue Zones research website which is a wond

Late Bloomer Online Video Challenge

Welcome back to the Juicy Years! If 15 months have flown by since I last posted, then it's time for me to more fully embrace every moment of every day of my life hereon in.  I've just completed a 5 Day Video Challenge in an online Woman's Dharma group, facilitated with much care and compassion by the wonderful,  Ann Manatt  who is  dedicated to helping female entrepreneurs launch their online businesses.   It has been one of the most rewarding and empowering activities I've done in a long time.  (image: valerie elash) After the 5th video was done and uploaded to our group yesterday I experienced one of those moments - you know the ones - where you suddenly feel an energy flow through you and your heart wells up. This energy was one of JOY,  accompanied by the thought "wow, how did all this happen in 5 days?" Our challenge was really a 7 day one.  Though it was very time consuming, and often kept me awake at night, I somehow found the ene

A Blog Tour - Navigating The Writing Path, From Start To Finish

Image
Today I'm taking a creative diversion from my usual topics of discussion as I  was invited by the lovely  Asrael Zemenick , an Ayurvedic Practitioner, Karma Yoga Instructor and Jyotish Astrologer, to join a “Blog Tour” (sponsored by  Sheri and Carly at  IC Publishing - follow via #ICBlogTour).  Until now I hadn't really thought too deeply about my writing process, so it's been a n ideal opportunity for me to reflect on this. Here are my insights. How do you start your writing project(s)?   My writing projects - whether a post on my Blog or post on my FB business page, are always prefaced by an urging from deep within, an intuitive ‘flash’, or a response to something I’ve read or seen.  At other times I’m inspired by an article that I may have bookmarked for research purposes.  As I’m passionate about sharing my experiences, my ideas for creative and juicy ageing with other women, this is a motivating factor for me to write. I am inclined to flow from the academic
