Sat Nam

Mantra Mama

As promised, my great Ageless Aunty will be appearing on this site soon….
But first I want to share some magic words that have helped me to de-stress, de-age, and delight….*Sat Nam* pronounced saaht--nam….it means I bow to my higher self, truth, God! I first learned this profound mantra in Kundalini Yoga. Practicing Kundalini Yoga in my opinion is one guaranteed path to Agelessness. Everything about this practice promotes joy, unlike anything else I have ever experienced. We chant, we dance, we sing, we move, and we meditate, opening up our hearts, elevating our spirit, and somehow that inner peace and happiness that was there long ago, miraculously emerges. Bliss is possible with Kundalini Yoga, and it remains one of my favorite ways to stay Ageless.

Recently, when I started thinking about putting this blog together, I was experiencing major stress factors in my life, on all levels, and things were mounting. I wanted to add something to my Kundalini Yoga practice and I signed up for stress reduction class (that in itself is an Ageless thing to do). The course happens to be about Qigong. I am new to this ancient energy practice but I can already say…it is miraculous. You can feel it activate the body’s natural healing ability. I call it Feng shui for the psyche because as you breathe you can feel the flow. I went in feeling overwhelmed and came out feeling fully alive and let the problems roll off of me. You can look up Qi-Gong online, and I will be talking more about it as I get deeper into the practice. Our instructor gave us a CD to take home to help learn the movement flow. The voice on the disc is a calming and loving Chinese man walking you through this energy practice. As he stops at each part of the body he says things like… “illuminate the heart. Heart I love you.” I felt so relaxed and calm during the class, and more important afterwards. The instructor (a doctor) promises that many of his students have had amazing results from doing this work. I can promise you too, it is worth a try! Ten million people around the world are glowing from practicing Qigong…I am glad I am now one of them. If you clear out all the negative energy you make room for positive vibrations to get working. And picture how positive energy looks on you. Think of how you felt on a really good day in your life. Follow this blog and I can assure you that many more ways as to how we can uplift ourselves will appear. Slowly we become the embodiment of Agelessness…breath by breath, vertebrae by vertebrae…it is possible. Ahh….

Ageless

We don't look 127 do we?

My mother always told me I could be anything I wanted. Now that I am all grown up I have decided that I want to be Ageless. You know…no number after my name, feeling good when I look in the mirror, believing in infinite energy and possibilities…. Having the attitude that everything is good, or will be again.

Take the above picture of me with Jerry Stiller. If this were a magazine or newspaper, next to our names would surely be a number… our age. I have never understood this. What does it matter? Who cares? Jerry looks great and I know he is older then a lot of us. Since I feel good too, and have often been told that I look much younger then the number of years I have been alive, I thought I would share some or my own secrets and tips while giving myself motivation to keep up all the fun and good living. I have been promised by a wise old guru that if I keep up I will be kept up! I believe him. Old Gurus don’t usually lie.

I also have some major inspiration which you will be seeing though out this new blog. It comes in the form of a five foot two, blonde hair, green eye, beauty…my great “Aunty” Helen. She is the most Ageless woman I have ever seen. No one ever guesses her age. She may have been born in the early part of the last century, but she hasn’t slowed down a bit. She spends her life just being happy. Nothing is blocking her from being ageless. As a matter of fact, because she remains a benevolent vessel of good energy, she is gravitating towards everything good (including agelessness) every second. Since we live together I know all her secrets and will share more of them. But for starters, I have not ever heard Aunty complain about anything. That scores big points in the game of Ageless pursuit.

I am a living testimony, beyond any shadow of a doubt, that Agelessness has nothing to do with how much money you have, or in my case, don’t have. One of my sister’s handbags cost more then I make in a year! Yet, I probably have more fun and more friends then Diddy does. I can honestly assure you that if I can stay Ageless (there continue to be some pretty significant challenges in my life) so can you. Even if you have five kids you can become Ageless. It just comes down to how important it is to you. For me it means freedom to just be yourself and love your whole self all the time, every minute of the day. If you go within (where real beauty lies) you will never go without. And good news everyone…. The well is endless…There is more light inside then you will ever need! The path to Agelessness may not always be so easy, but every time you smile you are de-aging, even if it’s a single cell! Start by simply paying attention to your breath. Focusing on the breath allows you to put yourself at ease, and feel the miracle of life itself.

Follow this blog and I will instruct you from here, tell you how I hooked up with wonderful Jerry Stiller, Share Aunty’s beauty secrets, and post pictures showing all the fun we are having….even at our AGE, which you will clearly see is AGELESS! If I have anything to say about it, there will never be a number next to my name, unless it’s how many times I laughed, prayed, or helped someone during the day!
Stay tuned….
