“You attract and manifest whatever corresponds to your inner state. When there is no way out, there is still always a way through.”
~ Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now

Words relay information, trigger thought patterns, and build belief systems. What if they can determine how we age and set the length of our lives? Yale Professor Dr Becca Levy shows how self-dialogue defines our future selves. Read my blog post here: https://t.co/MdxzcroRuG

@bryan_johnson I used to be inspired by what you were doing. I took it on board. As a vegan fitness enthusiast, it’s served me very well. Data, health, nutrition, longevity: 👍🏻. But megalomaniacal messaging as wannabe spiritual guru of the new epoch? That’s a no from me.

Beautiful newborn at the end of my garden. Happy Easter. Be kind. 🌱🙏🏻

We humans are at risk of losing ourselves as aides to AI’s evolution. Read my blog post here on why we shouldn’t be relying on bots to think and write for us.

I can still taste it, a day later 😆! Not to be recommended. 👎🏻

Every day, I make a yummy fruity smoothie bowl. It includes root ginger. Today it tasted OFF. I just realised why. Yesterday, I used half a big garlic clove in dinner and put the other half in the fridge. Today, without my glasses, I included that bit of “ginger”. 🤢

@NGCTamer Hello Nanette! Lovely to see you too! I also have not been active here for a long time. I’ll DM you later for a proper chat! X

Ageing slowly doesn’t have to involve biohacking or expensive supplements. It’s all about having a healthy daily routine. Exercise every day to slow cellular ageing. Check my Insta reel to learn more. 🙏🏻

@RikAntonyo They certainly did - bright and full of life. I’ve discovered just how moving and humbling it is to grow your own food from seeds. 💚

[Chrys Charteris @thewordsurgery]

I became a passionate (if a little unorthodox) grower of garden vegetables this summer! I’m in awe of the fact that they did so well! I grew giant courgettes, a broccoli jungle, juicy beetroot, carrots like mandrake roots… and my dinosaur kale is still going strong! 💚

@RikAntonyo Thank you Rik! The carrots had so much character it felt mean to eat them. I think they were doing their best to grow around stones in the ground!

When life threatens to throw us off our centre, how do we regain balance and find our unshakeable self?

Staying young at 60: running in nature is functional exercise - and fun! The uneven ground is a training aid. Alternate forward motion with backward and sideways movement to encourage balance and stability.

@stevekippax So that’s 20 years off my chronological age 👍🏻. Thank you Steve! 😊

[Chrys Charteris @thewordsurgery]

I turned 60 this month, and I’m happy with that number! The last year has brought huge change, and a certain freedom. I’m running solo as a freelance writer, and celebrating every day. Where there are hurdles, there are conquests to be made! Life is a gift.

[Chrys Charteris @thewordsurgery]

@stevekippax Blessed be from Littleton.
