So many people fear aging and losing their independence and beauty as they age. And being alone.

These women are showing us that none of that has to happen if we don’t want it to, but we have to take care of our mind, body and emotions in order for that to become a reality. Tao Porchon Lynch is an 95 year old yoga instructor who is beautiful and still dancing:

Mimi Kirk is also in her mid-70’s and vibrantly active and beautiful:

All of these women eat well and exercise, but they also take care of their mental attitudes by being positive and active and travel and are interested in life. We all face tragedies and losses; it’s how we deal with them that determines what they do to us. Having a spiritual program is important.

Take care of yourself from the inside out and long life is something that can happen. And not just long life, but a full, vibrant, happy life.
