Wow..xiexie ni…staysafe….stayblessed
Good presentation Really
I am 71 y.o. I trust my life in the OMNIPOTENT who owns it. To stay longer, I am avoiding activities that is detrimental to my health. I used to drink wines. I used to stay late. I am easily provoke and I worry much about life. Now, I quit wines. I sleep early and longer hours. I do not buy any provocation that will raise up my heart's palpitation. And above all, I worship God from the rising of the sun to the going down. I have no FEAR of going anytime because to die is to rest as Rizal said in his MI ULTIMO ADIOS!!!! MORRIR A DESCANSAR
I am 72 1/2. I am the epitome of health and activity and the awe and envy of others. Good genes? No. That is BS. I do one thing that changed my health completely 6 years ago. I NEVER EAT AFTER SUNDOWN. Specifically and in scientific terms, I NEVER have excess circulating glucose in my blood stream AT or AFTER the sun has set. Why? See the science and videos of Dr. Satchin Panda especially interviews by Dr. Rhonda Patrick. Panda proved that having ECG at sundown is truly terribly for one's health. It overrides everything. In fact, when dr. Patrick asked him a hypothetical, his answer was: "Sadly it is BETTER to eat an UNHEALTHY MEAL during the day because eating later in the evening turns even nutritious food into JUNK" – INFLAMMATION IS CAUSED ALL THRU THE NIGHT, FIRST TO THE ONE CELL THING ENDOTHELIAL LINING OF ALL BLOOD VESSELS and then depending on multiple factors to surrounding tissue. And what is at the root, cause and/or effect, of all illness – inflammation!! So Panda was implying that one can eat DONUTS during the day and the body can process it – it's still not good for you and you may end up with increased fat. But eating a donut at/after sundown is much worse because that ECG causes inflammation for HOURs (12 hours +/-). Hippocrates wrote 2,400 years ago these words: "IF you are sick and still eating YOU are feeding your illness. Stop eating and you will heal." The historian Josephus wrote that "People in the Roman Culture (1st C.E. AD) ate one meal a day around noon." According to a modern Benedictine Monk, the Benedictine monk order ate one meal a day (believed, but not certain to be closer to 3PM) for centuries. See the trend – no scientists involved. In the autobiography of British Lieutenant Henry Timberlake, who lived with the indigenous Cherokee Indians (Smoky Mtns) for a few months in 1762, "the elders…. were about 150 years old" and "still quite active." He, at age 35 and a FIT soldier, said that even the old women were "doing things that I am not physically capable of." He cited that the Chief's mother, whom he knew to be in her 80's was "carrying 200 weight of wood (that is British, so 224 lbs) for 1 to 2 miles on her back." Folks, that was NORMAL human health. The first thing we need to do is question what we think we know – what we only believe. COVID was not a natural illness – it was a man-made bioweapon. The mRNA vaccines were a "binary bioweapon" – per veteran vaccine science researcher Dr. Judy Mikovits. Science has proven that it can be a massive fraud. But the above history is undeniable. One more. IN a British military document (circa 1780) it was written that Indian warriors were know to "stop eating at least 24 hours before going into battle…. and could/would sustain that fast for several more days." NO CARBO loading when one's life and that of family and villages depended on strength, endurance, clear thinking, etc. This is what natural health looked like before the British eliminated and even hid that natural wisdom. "Stop eating and you will heal."
I'm 76yrs old Istill trusymy life in God's will..I workout daily.

Still fully engaged; Meditation; Exercise; good diet. Interests; reading; science; new physics; internet; old movies; documentaries. Plus: Lives of great men all remind us we can make our lives sublime and departing leave our footprints on the sands of time.
I enjoy painting…my home. At 77 I am once again re-painting my apartment. Completed my bathroom and kitchen (2 most difficult rooms). Looking forward to my entrance next, them my living area, and lastly my bedroom. Love re-decorating every 7 years or so. A bit slower, more care on the ladder, but greatly satisfying. Writing my ongoing memoir (for my grandchildren's eyes only). Reading 2 books a week, shopping and cooking healthy meals. Pain and meds-free. Life is the best it's ever been.
Yes
I am 71 and still enjoy learning and reading every day. I find learning is like peeling an onion, you something new everyday as you peel to the next layer.
No babysitting for me ,my babies! 😂 practice your own. life.
Yes
Laughing at myself helps me a lot. It tells me that I still have sense of humor. Also brings me back into the moment. It’s so easy to have your mind act like a run away train. Whereas I just like to travel one station at a time. Time for a cup of coffee and the newspaper. Then walk , a stretch listening to a story on my ear pods. Love short stories. Oh I’m 76.

I read a lot .follow my father’s advice..to learn something new every day. I do not take one pill. I exercise with a trainer. I TOOK UP ART AGAIN AND MET LOVELY PEOPLE. Emotionally I get depressed at times and lonely. I’m a very strong lady. I just retired. I gradually did it over 1 1/2 yrs . Living in the NOW IS THE HARDEST THING FOR ME. I SEEK PEACE. FORGIVING IS NOT SO EASY FOR ME. IM TRYING EVERY DAY. THANK YOU FIR THIS WONDERFUL VIDEO.
From Christianity I have learned that hate towards the ones you love most is natural. And without this hate, not chronic though, you will never be really free. It has helped me to understand my children and my self. Yes. Sometimes our children hate us, and don't want to see us. Then I think it can be wise, to feel within yourself, who you like to be. Still their mother, even if they have a problem with you, remembering them in birthdays, Christmas with a little gift, if you can, sometimes a sms, an encouraging, nice message. That is all.
If your child answer it is not the goal. It is up to her. The goal in this case is you. You will strengthen yourself in the role of parent. And that will never be wrong, but good for everybody. All the best to everybody.
I have always believed that continual learning is my reason for living, since age 12! When I was severely traumatized and contemplated suicide.
I’m 83 and workout on a walking and biking machines most every day. I listen to these Buddhist videos and meditate most days. I work on staying positive as much as possible. I go to ACA a 12 step meeting on dealing with childhood issues. A must! I try to think of God as much as I can and work on deep breathing. I get lowered feelings more than I would like. I spend a lot of time alone by choice because I believe solitary times are extremely important. I used to be a super busy person and really, what I was doing was trying to run from myself. I love gardening and have beautiful flowers and fruit trees and a vegetable garden. I am a work in progress.😊
