HOW OLD ARE YOU REALLY?
Or should I say, "how old are you BIOLOGICALLY?"
Nips, tucks, lips, fillers, colours, lasers, inners, outers, uppers (definitely no downers!) - the list of enhancements (hmmm) are endless!!
No amount of botox & eye-brow lift is ever going to cover up the BIOLOGICAL BURN. As far as I know they are not yet able to put 'sparkle' in your eyes or elasticity in your skin (despite what the cosmetic companies say!) or wit & wonder in your mind or SPRING in your step!
WHAT EVER YOU HAVE GOT RIGHT NOW IS worth PRESERVING & ENHANCING.🌱🌺🌳🌿
We are all burning - like candles in the wind.
THRU LIFESTYLE CHOICES - we get to choose the SPEED in which we burn!!
CHRONOLOGICAL AGE is not an accurate way to determine BIOLOGICAL AGE.
Some 15 y.o today have the biology of a 50 y.o
It is often measured by rate of INJURY to the rate of REPAIR.
HOW QUICKLY THE BODY/BIOLOGY RESPONDS/RECOVERS TO INJURY is one way of determining the aging of our 'apparatus'.
The MICROBIOME (specialized communities of invisible bacteria, yeast, viruses, protozoa, fungi etc)), which live in & on us, ARE QUITE SIMPLY THE BUILDING BLOCKS OF OUR PLANET & OUR BODY.🌏🌎🌍
When we get the BALANCE right in our MICROBIOME (GUT) we SLOW THE BURN.
When we get the BALANCE right in our PLANET - NATURE THRIVES (we are NATURE)🌿🌳🌺🌱💦🌻
This relationship is ANCIENT - we are symbiotes with this invisible world - without it we are doomed!!
When I want to address anything in my body - I think of it as a TOTAL ORGANISM. Not as separate parts, with isolated conditions. To me that just does not make sense (although it may make alot of cents!) - which is why I put everything in my biological favour to address INFLAMMATION, INFECTION, BREAKDOWNS etc as they show up on a daily basis.
OPTIMIZING MY IMMUNE SYSTEM IS KEY to my longevity!!
One of the most profound ways I have discovered in optimizing my immune system has been EATING CULTURED FOODS!!🌶🥥🍋🥑🥕🍏
This alone has changed the paradigm of my health.
As a womyn in my 50's - I hands down feel more beautiful & vibrant now than in my 20's!!
I am taking care of my BIOLOGY - slowing down the burn baby!! And I cannot tell you how delicious it is to slow down the burn - fermented foods LOVE you in return.
