The beauty of ageing

Ageing gracefully involves living from the heart, accepting ageing, and accepting ourselves to be truly happy and at peace. It is natural to welcome our advancing years and we should be aware that the beauty of living still lies within us, regardless of age. Adopt the idea of letting time go and living in the moment.

But what is living in the moment?

It is wisdom, compassion, understanding and humanity. It is appreciating the beauty the world shares with us every day, appreciating life, and embracing the wonderful parts of it that we often take for granted. It is slowing down, reconnecting with nature and expressing gratitude for all the blessings in our lives. Open your windows and breathe in the fresh air. Go outside and smell the flowers in the summer. Watch how the leaves twirl in the air and softly fall onto the floor in autumn. Open the curtains and feel the warm glow of the sunlight in the mornings. Appreciate the serene sunset in the evenings and the glimmering moon and stars in the deep sky at night. Think about what you can smell, hear, taste, feel and see, activating the 5 senses to genuinely welcome all life has to offer.
