Is Surrender and Acceptance the Same?

Published in: Aging, Exercise, Fitness, Goals, Health, Letting go, Midlife, Walking

Seems that in this so-called midlife I've been fighting surrender on a lot of fronts. But lately, I’ve been at the losing end. For instance, I have a bum left knee. I first realized something was wrong a little over ten years ago, while visiting Paris. It was my first European trip and I was determined not to let anything ruin it. Not the torrential rain we had. Not the record cold … [Read more...] about Is Surrender and Acceptance the Same?

The Secret to Being Happy

Published in: Exercise, Goals, Happiness, Health, Holiday Cheer, Moods, Nutrition

How were your holidays? Hopefully full of fun and good cheer. But I know that's not the way for everyone. Some of it might be forced cheer. Maybe you're tired of putting on a happy face. Maybe happiness is just...overrated. Why try so hard? Click on over to my other blog on  healthywomen.org, where I let you in on a secret. And please do me a special favor? Feel free to ignore my … [Read more...] about The Secret to Being Happy

Finding the “Right” Gym

Published in: Aging, Exercise, Fitness, Goals, Gyms, Health, Midlife, Moving, Walking, Working out

Since moving to a new town, I've been on a mission. I'm in the market for a new gym. Yes, my building has one (that's one perk of living in an apartment). But sometimes it's not enough (since I work from home, I need an excuse to actually leave the building otherwise I fear I'd never breathe any fresh air or see the outside world. Besides, staring out the window into a courtyard while you're … [Read more...] about Finding the “Right” Gym

Midlife Crisis? Strike That Phrase From the Dictionary.

Published in: Goals, Learning something new, Letting go, Midlife, Midlife Crisis

  Now that I’ve had a few years to settle into my so-called midlife, I have some bones to pick. There are those two words…so common to the boomer generation…that stick in my craw. (Okay, that expression should be struck, too.) I’ll admit there are some words that deserve to live together eternally.  Like “King” and “Queen;” “Odds” and “Ends;” “Bread” and “Water.” “Wrinkles" and … [Read more...] about Midlife Crisis? Strike That Phrase From the Dictionary.

Shouldn’t We Be HEALTHIER Than Our Parents Were??

Published in: Boomer Health, Cardiovascular Health, Chronic Diseases, Exercise, Fitness, Goals, Health, Nutrition

I like to think that every generation learns from the prior generation and steps things up when it's their turn. This one thing is for sure:  I always thought that we knew more about being healthy than our parents did. C'mon, look at us! We're the gym-goers, healthy eaters, obsessed with our input as well as our output. We're the healthy generation, the enlightened ones who know a thing or two … [Read more...] about Shouldn’t We Be HEALTHIER Than Our Parents Were??

3 Diet Myths and Other Confusions

Published in: Concepts, Exercise, Goals, Hunger, Inspiration, Snacking, Weight loss

I'm wondering why I woke up this morning with weight on my mind. Is it because we're into a new year and I'm hearing lots of people talking about hanging onto their promises to shed some pounds? Or is it because with each passing year, it's getting tougher - dammit! - to keep off those extra pounds? Or maybe it's the (ridiculous, non-age-appropriate) fashions in the magazines that make us … [Read more...] about 3 Diet Myths and Other Confusions

My Top Thirteen New Year’s Resolutions (Hint: They’re not for me)

Published in: Goals, Holiday Cheer, Moods, New Year, Pet Peeves

  Happy New Year, dear faithful readers! Thanks for visiting, because without you, there would be no blog.  This blog is my way of having a conversation with like-minded people (and even if you're not like-minded, I like to hear those opinions, as well).  And if you enjoy reading it, can I impose on you to do a few things?

About Me

What’s this so-called midlife, anyway?

It’s a time of tremendous change, growth and opportunity. A time to re-evaluate our choices, our experiences and ourselves. A time to take what we’ve accumulated up until now and put it to work.

When I turned 50, many things changed... read more about me.

I’m writing to express my admiration for the work you are doing!

I'm a young medical writer trying to get a foothold in the industry, so the portfolio you have on your website showcasing your accomplishments is something that I'm aiming to achieve.

I don't want to take up too much of your time, but I am hoping you can share some advice, tips, or guidance as I work on this, my lateral career change!

Thanks for taking the time to read this - I know you probably have much more exciting things to be doing, but just know that your work is inspiring me to continue down this writing path.
