Loving your years!

April 1st, 2010 by Jayne Cox - The Body Image Expert

If you are approaching 40 or have moved beyond 40 to perhaps your 50s or 60s youll know how life changing the experience can be. These years can be the most wonderful years of a womans life and yet women tell me they find it a real struggle. The process of age can bring wisdom, both inner and outer beauty. a depth of character through life experiences, love, inner peace, ambition, success, motivation, in fact anything and everything you ever wanted, there is nothing you cant do.

So whats stopping you? You! Yes you are stopping yourself being the woman you want to be and increasingly women choose these life stages to develop themselves, seeking therapeutic interventions to put the past behind them or perhaps specialist coaching.

Interestingly the issues that women feel concerned about seem to alter little from the 40s to 60s. I find the same conversations taking place and similar concerns.

I worry about my weight, I cant control it or my eating, one minute Im restricting myself the next I am out of control- You can turn this around by seeking an alternative to dieting, finding out what really works for you, get support in attaining your own unique and realistic goals and discovering that you never failed on a diet, they failed you! If youve worked with a personal trainer and didnt get the results you wanted, perhaps you need a little extra support to attain your realistic dizzy heights!

I feel less of a woman, I cant remember when I last felt feminine? You can rediscover a woman whos amazing, vibrant, beautiful and inspired. YOU! You can be supported to make life changes that increase your self- love and appreciate your changing body. Discover colour and style that makes you smile, try a new look, hair, make up and clothes. Its magical to discover the real you!

I vow to get fitter and shape up, I fail every time! - So would you choose hours and hours at the gym or prefer to have a creative and inspiring, easy, activity plan? Its easy to build activity into your day!

My body has changed and all I can see are the signs of age...HELP! Who told you that age wasnt allowed? Where did you learn that you cant have lines and you have to look like you are 21 again? Its so freeing to accept your body, giving it what it needs and creating a realistic image of yourself. Beautiful! So lets ditch the airbrush and get real!

So theres never been a better time to make those positive life stage changes, Now!
