@bbc5live @emmabarnett . Chatting about age- #BeAgeProud and being real on BBC5live at 10.50am this morning with Emma Barnett. .

@bbc5live @emmabarnett . Chatting about age- and being real on BBC5live at 10.50am this morning with Emma Barnett. . Why I no longer feel the need to fib about my age even when I reach another milestone birthday. Looking in the mirror each morning isn't always the best as i still feel like my younger self inside but the mirror tells a different story. . When we were in our teens or twenties, we aged ourselves up to appear more wordly and maybe to be taken more seriously by those older than us especially for career advancement. . However when we reached our 40s and onwards we fibbed and lopped years off to remain as long as possible in the previous decade. . Now that we look after ourselves better with a healthy lifestyle and diet, nutrition knowledge, fitness and beauty regimes, we can look our best and be proud of how we look naturally whatever our age. . I'm proud to look the way I do in my 60s. . Of course I would like to look like I did when I was in my 20s but I'll settle for being the best version of how I am now. . I've had amazing life experiences in my 60plus years and two wonderful children. Ive no need to fib any longer. . I want to inspire women of all ages. . . . . . .

A French website @aufeminin has written the nicest article about my Instafeed and how, as a 64 year old woman, I’m helping other women to be body confident and happy in their own skin

A French website @aufeminin has written the nicest article about my Instafeed and how, as a 64 year old woman, I'm helping other women to be body confident and happy in their own skin. . I created my Instagram to inspire and help women of all ages to be body positive and non-judgemental or super-critical of themselves or others. . And to see what we look like with no filters.. . No one is perfect. But we can all be the best versions of ourselves wrinkles, warts and all- everything that makes each of us unique. . C'est flatteur de recevoir ces critiques. Merci. And thank you to all my new French followers. . . . . .

The latest video of the @tuclothing @portasagency #allboobswelcome ad campaign

Your thoughts ladies??? .
Does this ad campaign help give you body confidence?
Feel better about your own body image?
Understand that no one is perfect ( unless they’ve airbrushed or filtered).
.
If I can undress at the age of 64 together with these other brave and confident women of all ages, shapes, sizes.. then you too should be confident enough to embrace the body you actually have.
.
Btw, I had no name for my boobs in this video.
However I actually did… I called them “my girls!” What do you call yours? .
@eliza_h
New work out today 71% of women felt typical lingerie ads appealed to men and we knew it was time to get real. We’ve had enough of Victoria Secret’s catwalks and unattainable photoshopped perfection. We took to the streets and cast real women of all shapes and sizes.
.
Today and over the next 4 weeks we’ll be celebrating diversity and encouraging women to embrace their bodies as they are. From “Lemon drops” to “Ant & Dec” we say .

This collection of CBD oils, capsules and creams are for me to test and trial with some of my lifestyle and wellness clients

This collection of CBD oils, capsules and creams are for me to test and trial with some of my lifestyle and wellness clients. . . Until now I have been very anti CBD oils as I believed that any with enough strength to do anything significantly helpful would be addictive due to the addictive nature of THC compound in cannabis. . However the THC has been removed in all these products but they are still high strength enough to be effective. . So we here we have from L-R... Kat's Naturals organic CBD THC free drops- Heal: These high dose anti-inflammatory formula drops are peppermint flavoured and can help with anxiety, depression and insomnia. . . Medterra drops are fast acting as they are absorbed sublingualy for anxiety and pain relief during periods. These I am going to test out on a young women client. . . The Mediterra capsules can help lessen interrupted nightly sleep as they are slower to kick in as they are absorbed slower in the body than drops. These are what I am goimg to try myself. Apparently they will not give a Melatonin style hangover effect in the morning. . . The CBD pain cream can help arthritis and inflammation. I am going to try this on an arthritic finger and an ageing knee joint myself. . . The Lucent botanical mints can help to be calming. . . The tester sachet creams can help redness, rosacea etc. . . I would be inyerested to know if any of my Instagram followers have tried any CBD products for any medical reasons and how you got on. I will report on my progress too. . . . . . @thedrug.store
