The Art of Self-Care: Prioritizing Wellness in Your 50s and Beyond

October 11, 2023

There’s an art to self-care, especially as we sail through our fabulous 50s and beyond. Prioritizing wellness becomes an essential ingredient to living a fulfilling and healthy life. And no, it’s not a selfish act, but a very necessary one. When we take proper care of ourselves, we’re better equipped to care for those we love. But, how can we embody the essence of self-care artistry? Let’s discover together.

the art of self care

First and foremost, love yourself

Self-care begins with self-love. It’s about treating yourself with the same gentleness, kindness, and understanding you’d afford your dearest friend. When you value yourself, you naturally take better care of your physical, emotional, and mental well-being.

Next, replenish your body

Good health in your 50s and beyond requires conscious nourishment. A balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains fuels your body and wards off illnesses. Don’t forget to hydrate! Drinking plenty of water helps maintain optimal bodily functions.

Then, let’s move

Regular physical activity is a cornerstone of health. Whether it’s brisk walking, practicing yoga, swimming, or cycling, choose activities that you enjoy. It’s never too late to start; remember, the goal is to keep moving and have fun.

Embrace tranquillity

A peaceful mind is just as vital as a healthy body. Incorporate mindfulness practices like meditation or deep breathing into your routine to reduce stress and promote mental wellness. The power of calm and peace can have a profound effect on your overall wellbeing.

Nurture your relationships

Strong social connections contribute immensely to our emotional and mental health. Spend quality time with family, catch up with old friends, join a club, or volunteer. Engaging in activities that bring joy and foster connections can rejuvenate your spirit and sense of belonging.

Lastly, engage in activities that you love

Do you enjoy painting, reading, or gardening? Maybe it’s music or dance? Whatever it is, pursue it. Engaging in hobbies not only provides an outlet for your passions but also keeps your mind actively engaged and your heart joyous.

Remember, self-care is not about grand gestures or expensive indulgences. It’s about these little but crucial things we do every day to take care of our physical, emotional, and mental health. The better we feel, the better we function, and the more vibrant our lives become.

So, let’s all master the art of self-care, turning our 50s and beyond into a beautiful portrait of wellbeing. Because self-care is the best care, and you deserve nothing less.

The Fall collections have already been dropping an The Fall collections have already been dropping and I’m here for it, but first we need to discuss the late summer collection from @jjillstyle that just dropped. #ad

They’re great pieces that are the perfect weight to wear now and then later with some fun layering.

I’m wearing wide leg ankle jeans, the softest tee and the most fun chino material peplum style lightweight jacket. Most styles are available in regular, petite and tall (XS-4X).

Have a great day!

My home cooking skills are limited, but I nail thi My home cooking skills are limited, but I nail this smoothie every time!�

The star of the show is really the peanut butter plant based protein powder. It’s gut-friendly, made from just 6 clean organic ingredients and NO artificial sweeteners.�

No sponsorship here, just spreading the love to fellow vegetarians and protein fans. 

Have you tried it?��

I make mine with 8 ounces unsweetened almond milk, 1 scoop of protein powder and I like to add a handful of frozen dark sweet cherries. I usually have a smoothie in the morning or afternoon.

It comes in about a dozen different flavor options, including an unflavored option too. Let me know if you want a list of places to purchase.�
