What's not to love about being a Goddess?  According to Dr. Christiane Northrup,  Goddesses Never Age.  I've downloaded her book of the same name on the Audible  app and I listen to it (read by the author) in my car as I drive to the gym.  I listen to it on other journeys too but somehow I feel I'm contributing more powerfully to the goddess image on gym trips and Dr. Christiane's words get to carry greater impact.  Let's be honest, driving about getting sweaty about getting sweaty isn't inspiring in the least and my mind is more likely to drift into the mundane lane than to elevate my sense of higher purpose but from time to time, some juicy goddess guidance hits home nicely.

ABANDON  YOUR  AGE

Dr. Christiane has done all the research on the science of ageing and it seems to me that the two main components of ageing are chemical and mental and the connection to, and effect on, each one to the other.  Put super-simply, 'we think, therefore we are'.  Our bodies believe every word we say.   So - tell it some superpowered steroid pumped new truths.  Now dear UpStarts,  I'm assuming you are one of our over 50's (but the earlier you start the following practice the better ) - so - When asked how old you are, check in with your body and assess how old you feel.  Then answer with sincere conviction  "I'm 33 today" or "42 today" or - go for it - "22 today".    It doesn't matter what the enquirer thinks but your body will love you for it. "Thank you"  it will say. "I like that look on you".   Everything will fall into place so much more easily when you assume the age you feel 'today'.  And skipping to the park to take in a couple of laps will seem so much sweeter. Go Goddess!
