I love to read stories like this one. If this doesn’t´t make you feel good I don´t know what will. Olive Riley was born on October 20th, 1889 in Broken Hill, Sydney and at her 107 years of age has started a new blog about her life. She is delighted to be able to tell all about her experiences and she is now busier than ever.
Her secret.. like all other people her age, she has maintained a healthy and positive lifestyle. She is happy and grateful for all she has. Her young spirit is always with her and she feels younger than ever.

Menopause, the beginning of the aging process?
Posted by ferran on 05 Mar 2007 | Tagged as: The Loveantiaging way of life
Many women view menopause as “the change”, and from this change everything is different, it takes a turn and we start to slowly age. Menopause is a natural process that happens to all women. Typically between the ages of 42 and 56, menopause can begin. The production of estrogen and progesterone starts to slow down and menstruation eventually stops.
This is in no way a disease but more a biological transition. Some of the symptoms are weight gain, depression, insomnia, fatigue, short term memory problems, or itchy skin. This year I turn the dreaded 40 and although I´m a bit nervous I’m ready to face this new stage in my life. Nowadays we have many herbal remedies, hormone therapies or ancient cures that can help us ease the pain.
I think that as with everything in this life, it could affect you good or bad depending on your state of mind and how you have taken care of your body. Menopause is not the end of your life, it is a wonderful beginning we should embrace and welcome in like a good friend.

The Secret, now you could have anything you desire
Posted by ferran on 02 Mar 2007 | Tagged as: The Loveantiaging way of life
A friend sent me a link to a web page called the secret. Since my curiosity is stronger than my will, I had no choice but to go to the web page and find out what this secret was. I love anything that has to do with improving your well being by ways of positive and forward thinking. Reading about the secret, I realized this was something that was getting a lot of attention and becoming a trend. Oprah Winfrey dedicated the entire hour segment of her show to “the secret”, so now I know it is something to look in to.The secret talks about the laws of attraction. If you wish for something hard enough, you just need to visualize it, keep an open and positive mind and you will acquire it. Seems, pretty straight forward but like anything it is easier said than done. I figure you have nothing to lose by visualizing, you could visualize a healthy body, mind, anything you want.
The anti-aging way of life is much more than just the physical, it needs to start from the inside, from our mind. I will try to visualize a flawless complexion, a healthy body fit and beautiful. What will you visualize?

Keeping food journals can help you stay fit
Posted by ferran on 01 Mar 2007 | Tagged as: food, getting in shape
Do you remember what you had for dinner last night? How about what you ate last week? My memory is not what it once was, and I have no clue what I just ate a few minutes ago but if you are trying to lose a few pounds or just trying to improve your daily nutrition keeping a food diary could really help you.
You can purchase food journals online or simply create one yourself on a spreadsheet. Here you can list all the foods you intake, the calories, frequency, and you can slowly start to see patterns in your eating habits that may not be so good. You will be surprised at how you treat your body, on a daily basis.
I personally don’t have a lot of time and I’m not sure I could do this, but I think a couple of minutes a day could help me in the long run see patterns that I want to change.
