Back in day

Back in day.....
Circa 1970s
Wearing Kenzo.
.

It's a shame that our younger selves don't appreciate or realise how good we look at the time and beat ourselves up wanting to be an improved version. Slimmer, curvier, longer legs, bigger boobs etc etc.
.
Love yourself and love what you see in the mirror as you are now.
Accept your imperfections. They are what make you unique. .
Be confident in who you are. 
Confidence is sexy.

The first photo of me is the before the treatment

The first photo of me is the before the treatment.
The last photo in this series of video clips and pics is the after treatments.
.
Thank you @facegym for my lovely treatment
.
My treatments shown here in my video clips are a signature electrical and an cryo oxygen.
.
The session included:
a rigorous lifting manual massage, then a ball massage,  then the electrical current which very strong and definitely not relaxing, then a gentle massage with a comb type probe and then with a piece of jade and finally the oxygen cryo.
.
My face now definitely has more definition after the treatment and my skin looks plumped and glowing. .
I would love to be able to treat my face and skin to this facial workout more regularly.
.
I like to look good for my age without resorting to surgery, botox or fillers.  This treatment is definitely fabulous.
.
These video clip have no filters.

If you take on the challenges that life offers you, they can take you to exciting places

If you take on the challenges that life offers you, they can take you to exciting places.
.
When life offers you an opportunity outside your comfort zone seize it with both hands and go for it.
.
I have just done this. .
Many of my age would not. I'm 64.  They would say " You're brave, I wouldn't do this, but well done." .
Watch this space. .
I am going to be part of an exciting campaign that is something I would never have considered doing a few years ago. .
I'm braver now and I have to walk the walk and talk the talk if I am going to inspire and bang on about positive body image, confidence and being yourself whatever age, shape or size you are with no filters. .
Be bold. Be brave. Be you.

Dont be self critical

Dont be self critical. 
No one is perfect, whatever your age.
Dont believe the filters.
No celebrity I have ever styled has been perfect.
Embrace your flaws and love yourself.

Sometimes we don’t take time to stop and look around us and appreciate being in the moment

Sometimes we don't take time to stop and look around us and appreciate being in the moment. Most of us are glued to our phones, reading texts, sending emails, checking our social media.
.
So whilst walking @misslucy_lou this sunny morning  I was practicing being mindful, grateful and appreciating the world around me.
.
 I came across this beautifully planted flower bed. So simple but so effective.
.
I thought it was quite magical, ethereal almost like Narnia with the old fashioned lamp post.
.
Perfect garden for a Halloween posting. .
