I’ve been so focused on taking care of my mom who has dementia for the past six years that I have not taken care of myself or my own home. I’ve taken care of her, and her home and her garden and let mine go. You made me realize that I can’t make her better by knocking myself out. The more I tried to do for her the worse she treated me. Not that it’s her fault, because before this she was the sweetest most self sacrificing person I’ve ever known, but it has consumed me and kept me from my family, and when I discovered I had cancer last year it was time to make the decision to put her in a nursing home, which was the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life. I had a good outcome from the cancer and listening to your videos is giving me less guilt and making me feel like I’m important too. Thankyou Sandra
Nancy, Nice to hear from you. Just know you did the best a daughter could for your mother. Dementia is a very difficult situation to handle because the person eventually becomes hostile. You did the right thing. I’m glad to hear your cancer treatment was successful. That this time going forward for you. You are worthy! Thanks for sharing today! ❤️. Sandra
Good morning, dear Sandra: If there was a contest for the best "mature" TH-camr for women, I'd vote for you, hands down. It is so comforting to hear your soothing voice and words of wisdom as we begin our week. It is so lovely to watch you and feel no pressure to "fight" the aging process (an exercise in futility), or feel the need to purchase yet ANOTHER new palette, not that I would. You bring grace, beauty and wisdom to us, and all you spoke of today was absolutely correct. I needed to hear this. Thank you so very much. I hope you and Arthur are well - have a beautiful day, and God bless you! 🌹❤ Rosemarie
Rosemarie, I am so touched by your support and warm words this morning. I really love that I do and hope that we can all learn something from one another. We are so much mor than we are given credit for overall. Thank you so much. ❤️. Sandra
Such a good message we all have our own stories..I have 4dtrs left an abusive husband after many yrs got myself through nsg school raised my kids on my own got my own mortgage bought a house Im remarried after 10yrs & starting to see how strong I was through it all Im giving myself some credit we women are warriors!
You deserve a great big hug and a pat on the back and a medal of honor! We women are stronger than anyone could imagine when we’re put to the task. I couldn’t be happier for you and also for your wonderful daughters. Thank you so much for sharing your story with us❤️
Good morning Sandra, my mother used to give me the same advice when I took my worries to her. She used to repeat a quote which I am sure you know too: “God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference.” Have a happy day - love and blessings, Vivien 🌺💗
Hello Sandra, I have just recently stumbled upon your channel. I want to tell you how much I am enjoying your videos. I am 62 years old and recently retired. We seem to be very much alike, I have always been a highly sensitive person, enjoying the arts, music, poetry etc... I really appreciate your videos, I can tell that you truly want to help others. I agree with so many of your philosophies. However, knowing what is best and doing it are two different things. Lol. I look forward to listening to more of your thoughts. You are a beautiful spirit, and a beautiful lady. All the best to you. Ruth
Ruth, I’m so glad you found me. Having the knowledge and then executing it and using it in our lives is the hard part, isn’t it. I struggle with control all the time. Some days I am better than others. I have a note in my refrigerator saying ‘LET GO’. I have to remind myself about the things I can’t change. ❤️. Sandra
Lovely video, Sandra. I tend to be a worrier and I am really trying to focus on what you talked about. Also, thank you again for always giving us such wonderful thought provoking topics so that we know we are not alone. {at least for me }. I stopped watching so many of my favorite TH-cam ladies because of the endless “anti aging” products companies are trying to sell us, the latest make up that would be lovely, but can not be afforded by so many. Your natural approach to aging inspires me. The grace you show is the best “aging” secret out there. Take care
Jean, I am like you in that in my life, things that are meaningful to me, go beyond just makeup. Thank you for appreciating what I am all about. I love having you along with me on this road we are well traveling. ❤️. Sandra
Dear Sandra, I believe you are an angel on earth. 🙏🏻 You are a mentor of my life too. I feel a deep emotional connection with you everyday... Thank you so much for being with us & holding our hands..❤️
You’re just amazing Sandra! Thanks for all your support and kindness and wisdom. It’s a always a pleasure to spend mornings with you. Sending a big hug 🤗! Have a wonderful day.
I will replay this June 18, 2018 video over and over to remind myself of what matters. It’s just what I needed to hear at this point in my life. Thank you for helping me to refocus.
Good morning to you, Sandra. This is truly the most carefree time of my life, since I was a child. The older I get, the less I worry about things that really don't matter! Enjoyed. Many blessings, and joy...MaryEllen
MaryEllen, That’s the way it should be at this stage in our lives. Learning to let go of things that don’t matter equates a happier life.❤️. Warm wishes. Sandra
Dear Sandra, you are bringing light to the dark corners of my mind, there where the struggles and worries turn in circles without results, just exausting me.The impact of your words is so big I believe, because it comes from your life experience and from your heart, not from books or thinking.Clearly you love the humanity and I love you!Thank you , I needed this today, I was thinking about my mother's beginni ng dementia and also I was very sad about the violence in the neighborhood.Now I feel more positively inspired to deal with these problems now.Have a great week!
Muhlenstedt, I am sorry about your mother. That is very sad and hard to watch her decline. All of the violence in the world can be depressing, but we have to let go. Just concentrate on the things you can control, like loving and spending time with your mother. Have a nice day tomorrow. ❤️. Sandra .
I just recently found these videos and I'm loving watching them! I'm going on my first cruise and was feeling overwhelmed and out of touch. With Sandra's videos I'm feeling comfortable about being me as I turn 64 in a few weeks. Thank you Sandra Hart.
Dear Sandra thank you for the chat today about not worrying about the things you have no control over and remembering to be true to yourself. Love you. DI.
Hello Sandra at this moment in time I feel like a guardian Angel is watching over and guiding me. And that Angel is you🙏🏻. Everything you have spoken about in this video I needed to hear right now. I so need to let go of so much stuff…. Bless you 🙏🏻🤗🥰
Dear Sandra! I watch you everyday, even repeated videos, all-ways you make me so happy and relaxed...thank you so much...I have been learning a lot with you ...I’m blessed that I found you...I love you...God bless you and your family
Very well said Sandra , this has to be one of my most important and hardest life lessons . Letting go .... detaching sometimes with love .... sometimes forgiveness...having courage to move on even though you can't see the big picture .... I've had to let go of so much , but I have grown , and healed and always look for the gift of passing it on .... you sure are paying it forward , I saw it from the beginning of your you tube channel ... keep up the big lessons for us they are wholesome and full of love , and beautiful reminders of what's important ... good advice can relieve pain and struggle .... give clarity ....just sending all the best vibes your way ! From one Capricorn to Another !
Diana, so beautifully expressed. We all have struggles, questioned our decisions and picked ourselves up and moved on. If we live life, things happen. That’s why I started my channel. We all need love and support and encouragement and my having walked through a lot, want to help others. Thank you for walking with me. ❤️. Sandra
I needed to hear this absolutely!❤ I’ve been struggling with a depressed ill relative…all my emotions trying to help him, my own family, myself neglected…he’s so selfish…sorry, I felt like you’ve lifted off a ton of weight, trying to FIX him…thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼God Bless
Hi Sandra, I just sent this video to my mom. I actually think that this would be a great video that absolutely anybody could benefit from watching. My husband came down with a virus called Bell's palsy about 7 weeks ago which is a temporary paralysis of half of the face. The recovery is slow going and sometimes 2 steps forward and 3 steps back. He is doing acupuncture, meditating, drinking a tea that tastes terrible because his acupuncturist swears it will help speed up his recovery and he is eating healthy and trying to exercise when he feels like it. This virus also makes him sensitive to sound which is kind of a big deal because he is a composer. Talk about something being out of his control. The recovery could take 3 months, 6 months or as long as a year. Considering our situation, I found your words in this video to be very calming and therapeutic. Thank you for that. I really appreciate it. Have a wonderful day!
Melhut, I know exactly what Bell’s Palsy is because my female cousin had it several years ago. Her face on one side was paralyzed. She finally recovered, but it took quite a few months. I hope your husband has a complete recovery soon. The acupuncture and meditation are great for healing and shoulders really help him. Thank you for sharing this with your mother. We have to learn to focus on those things we have control over. Thank you for sharing your story. ❤️. Sandra
I've watched this video twice and will surely watch it several times more. Very important messages. I am able to hear your message because you radiate kindness and caring. Thank you.
I LOVE THIS! I am 51 and I feel this way right now. I really feel like time goes by so fast that when you get older you appreciate what means the most and matters. I am a worrier. I think that it is very important to spend time with those you love. I do worry about my health a lot. and I wish I would just accept that things are the way they are. Thank you for your great advice. xoxoxo Becki
Becki, I struggle with worry all the time. It is a wasted emotion and I am getting better at having more faith that everything will work out! Let’s work on that together!!! ❤️. Sandra
@@lifewithsandrahart Sandra, Thank you!! Yes I agree. I grew up with that thought mode and it is a good learning process to stop it now and change my mind set. I love your videos. :) Hugs!!
Great advise Sandra ,no more energy I can’t control but I learned this the wiser and older I got we must beleive in ourselfs,I know what I hold close, my path, and my commitment thanks Sandra 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙👒👒👒👒👒👒👒👒👒👒👒👒👒👒👒😊✊🇺🇸😎
Thank you Sandra I needed the reminder. The waterfall or swimming pool water sounds were soothing and your patio is pretty. Have a wonderful day and again thank you for sharing.
Linda, Good evening. I really like filming outside whenever I can. We have had so much rain recently everything is so green. Thanks for watching. Have a great week. . ❤️. Sandra
Miss Sandra, I can't possibly thank you enough. I think I may be making this video a daily viewing. What a message I desperately needed to hear. Blessings to you.
Sandra im so glad I found u. on u tube but this is the first time im writing..Everything u. Said about the subject on things u. cannot control, is so true but I just cannot help myself..Four yrs. ago, I opened a FB, & for me, I think it was a mistake.I worry about everything & I know I cannot control the world..The thing the really kills me is cruelty, especially animals..I will go out of my way if I see anyone, that's harming animals & I try to send money have rescued but its endless, & I know u. know this..I get totally angry& anxious where its ruining my health..I can't sleep at night thinking HOW, people can do what they do..I know, I cannot control people but I have gotten worse as I age..Yes, I should be putting my energy on something else but I can't seem to & feel guilty if im not helping the voiceless..Im very blessed with wonderful husband but I try to control what I cannot..I need some words of wisdom...thank you...
Susie, We are animal lovers, so I know exactly how you feel. We help support neuter and then release of our local cats that people leave behind when they move. It is so cruel. We have a group that feed these sweet animals and the ones that can be domesticated we find homes for them. I feed the squirrels and birds every time I take my dog for a walk. There are evil people in the world that abuse animals so all you can do is to help those in your town by donating dog food to shelters or if you are able volunteer to play or walk the shelter animals. Your caring is so heartwarming, but none of us can save all the sweet animals. Just be grateful there are good people who are working to help these abuse animals. They need your prayers, so don’t worry yourself sick or they will lose a good kind soul and advocate like you. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. ❤️. Sandra
regrets are a painstalking waste of time to dwell upon and never stress the things beyond your control just live for the now because it's the only thing that you have
You are so interesting. I love how you reference your own life experiences and let people get to know you via your vlogs. I find you amazing and can’t thank you enough for the wisdom you share. It is so needed. Thank you Sandra. 🌷
Sandra you are absolutely right. I am at that stage where I am thinking about downsizing. I like yourself have been thru alot. I can't believe I made it this far. I think about what you are saying all the time. Thank you Sandra. Santa from nonna santa in cucina.💗
Sandra, Hello and Welcome. So excited you found me and letting me know you will be on this pro aging journey. Thanks so much for subscribing. ❤️. Sandra
I just discovered your channel few days ago and can’t really stop watching it. U r so wise and even though you may think in youtube as a connection with other women living the same stage as yours, I want u to know that for a guy on his twenties your message passes through his spirit and makes him feel really proud and hopeful about the generation we need to reflect ourselves on, as the mirror that we want to find for our future. Am glad to know how much u like Argentina. Kind regards xxx
Juan, Hola y gracias. What a beautiful post filled with mature spirit! Thank you for watching and letting me know you are here. Your generation will be fine. ❤️. Sandra
It is easy to get caught up on whatever is going on around us! Thank you for the timely reminder to love yourself so we can love others. If the love fund is empty, we cannot withdraw any.
Oh No,THANK YOU, Sandra when I was 21 my best friend Lisa Leben was 91, she taught me so much , imagine she had moved to South Beach and had divorce her husband in New York City in the forties , she was so smart and beautiful just like you.
Never stop, Sandra!! Your husband is back & I so appreciate reading each & every comment that women are making. It would be nice to include all of them in a book. March 1, 2022♥️♥️♥️
Thank you Sandra I have learned to put priorities to situations and to manage my health and set goals before I get worn down.Have been trying to watch all your videos ❤️🇨🇦Toronto
Thank you so much Sandra for sharing your uplifting message. How true we try to control things , I too have let go and let be and tell myself if it’s meant to be then let it happen. Only thing I seem to forget is me, In the process, I forget that I am just as important and need to be acknowledged and cared for too And I have myself to blame, and need to put myself back in front of the line. I always enjoy the time spent with you on Utube you are such a friend to visit and enjoy some Special time with. Bless you dear heart, much love coming your way.💗💗💗
Thank you very much Maria. Self-love and taking care of yourself is so important. It’s nothing to feel guilty about. If you take care of you then you’re better able to take care of others that you love❤️
Thank you for this wonderful video. Im a wife of a stroke patient and have tried to keep the family together but its been very difficult at times. I do have to fix things all the time, medical, bills , house, college kids etc... but I have to recognize the things I cant and shouldnt. Youre words touched my soul.
Monica, Thank you so much for posting. I have friends who are in your same position and know what your are going through. Life doesn’t tell us ahead of time what is in store for us. Maybe it’s better that way. We deal with it when we have to. There is no way that you can do it all. Choose the immediate things you need to deal with and that are in your control. Let the other situations you have no control over go for now. Women with families have been working out problems our whole lives. We have a lifetime of experience of choosing what needs caring about. Thank you so much for sharing! ❤️. Sandra
What a wonderful video. Words of wisdom. I thank you for sharing it's good food for thought. It really spoke to me too I worry about too much and need to let go and focus on what matters most.
Kathleen, I’m so happy that you found me and that you have decided to join our group of wonderful subscribers here on this journey. I cover a variety of subjects that I think all of us are interested in. As I said earlier to one of my subscribers we are not one of the women and we have a lot of interest and issues that we are concerned about and we want to pursue to help us through the very best life ever going forward.❤️
I am delighted to see you.l am obsessed about my family as well.l don't see them very often because of the covid.l feel better as l have joined you.l have a feeling you are talking only to me and cheering me.This makes me feel so good, and l am not so lonely.God bless you,dear Sandra!
Such great points Sandra. Especially giving up mental control over things we really don't have control over!! And obsessing! And focusing on things we care about- happy Monday gorgeous!!!😘😘😘
I’m so glad I found your channel. I’m 32. I Care so much about what others think and just want people to be happy with me. I have severe panic and anxiety. I’m pregnant with baby number 2 and I feel like enough is enough. I need to figure me out so I can be the best me for my kids
The more you concentrate on you and your welfare and self care and the less you care what people think, the happier and better off you will be. Age has helped me realize that.
Thank you for your beautiful inspiring words. I didn’t want this video to end. It made cry. It’s so heart felt. You are providing a better service than any doctor or counsellor. Right now you are a godsend in my life…. Jasmine 😘🤗👍
Hi Sandra: I came back later to listen to your words again in this video. So much wisdom; we can all benefit from this wonderful advice. We appreciate all the topics you discuss, as life truly becomes more challenging with age. Thanks so much for s great start to the week! Rosemarie ♡
Rosemarie, Thank you for being so supportive. I know I sometimes have deeper content than some creators, so I’m not too sure if a particular topic will be of interest. I appreciate your input. ❤️. Sandra
Martha, I always enjoy hearing from you. Thank you so much and thank you for your support. We al have struggles, don’t we. None of us escape. ❤️ Sandra
The first 2 minutes of the video are really thought provoking. We all face different problems in life, and so for each of us our focus could differ, but so true what you say Sandra! We should focus on what we can control, and have believe in ourselves, this may not solve all our problems but will surely help. Yes! We are the caretakers of the world.
Mary, We really are the nurturers of mankind. We are also sometimes carrying heavy burdens that we can’t control. I know I have had to learn to put those aside and focus on those that I really care about and can work through. Thanks for sharing. ❤️. Sandra
Hi Sandra this came up in my feed today and so I re-watched it and wow! What an insightful video and so helpful for me today in my life! Thank you love you!
Thank you, thank you. I am a perfectionist, and I notice every detail. It really does rob me of joy. I’ve struggled with letting go. It is not easy. How I have wished and prayed to not even notice the details, but I don’t think that’s going to happen. I need to focus on looking past them. Your message about looking at the bigger picture is what I needed. I enjoy your videos very much. Sheri
Sheri, I am a person who likes to fix and be in control, too. I had to learn to finally let go of things I couldn’t control and to only care about those I could. ❤️. Sandra
Hello Sandra! I am so enjoying your channel! I feel like I have a friend that really cares and give good suggestions and advice, without overwhelming me. I know you understand experiencing, cocooning, and growing from change and loss. I have dealt with anxiety most of my life and I find that being able to listen to someone who has experience life in many ways comforts me and helps me refocus. Thank you so much for being here! Much love, Trish
Hello Sandra You are a blessing. So insightful and wise. I have been retired since January of this year and I feel as if I am still waiting for something to happen. in my life We took a 7 day cruise to Mexico in February Now my husband and I and my daughters' family are leaving for about 2 weeks in Massachusetts Cape Cod I keep trying to think of my passions but I can come up with reading and since I always thought I wanted to be a teacher as a child, but went into nursing instead ....!!! Well my brain goes in circles sometimes I really look forward to your videos and since I am new I can watch your previous ones and really enjoy them. Where my picture should be is really a pic of the view from the house we rent on Cape Cod which is beautiful My soul is more at peace near the ocean Pat
Pat, Welcome. I am so happy you are joining me for the journey we are traveling. There are so many freedoms you now have in retirement. This is going to be the best chapter in your life. I live the ocean and an ocean view is really important to me. Enjoy your satay in Cape Cod. It is such a beautiful place. Sandra
Amazing chat today dear Sandra, I have such admiration for you. Shining a light on our own lives and the way we deal with problems is exactly the message I needed today! I know a lot of stress could be eliminated by concentrating only on those I have the ability to control. I think as women perhaps we try to have more control but, that doesn’t work! I appreciate your words of encouragement, given with such love & understanding. Thank you so much I appreciate you!
We all have different lives unique to our situations, but I think women are so used to juggling ten things at a time, it’s hard to stop caring about too many things, even those we have no control over. I am still learning to focus on the important things in my life. ❤️. Sandra
Life Over Sixty With Sandra, that is something I need to really work on, I can’t change my adult boys! I try to be understanding but I see them making such mistakes I want to help. I have 7 sons so I’m sure you understand my feelings. Thank you so much Sandra
Sandra, what wise words......I wish I heard that message when I was way younger.....I have wasted a lot of time worrying about things I can't control.....the older I get I realize that you have to chose the things you worry about.....I can remember sooo much wasted time ......I think for me it has to be a control thing I want to be able to control things and worrying about the outcomes of things is a control thing to an extent. You are right it is an everyday thing to work on. I absolutely love your talks giving me sooo much to think about......hope your enjoying your summer.....:-).....Debbie
Debbie, I agree. I do think it’s a control thing. I have been so guilty of that. I am learning every day what I really should care about.and it is allowing me to live a more fulfilled and happier life. Letting go can be good. ❤️. Sandra
Great messages as always. That is so true. Sometimes we have to say no to some people that do drain us always asking for favors. I know I need to care for myself because no one else is going to do it for me. LIFE's lessons. I am learning to enjoy life more so now than ever before because I realized life is a gift......as always sending you my love...............ILY.......MINDY
Donna, Thank you so very much and you know I am so happy that you found me. I’m just delighted to have you along on this pro aging journey with all of us. Thank you again for taking the time to comment.❤️

When I start to worry or get concerned about my kids or grandkids and their situations, I pray and surrender them into God's capable hands.

IT WAS LIKE YOU WERE TALKING STRAIGHT TO ME. WORDS I SO NEEDED TO HEAR. I SAT HERE AND YOU GAVE ME FOOD FOR THOUGHT THANK YOU GOD BLESS YOU SANDRA
Shirley, We all need a voice from somewhere else once in awhile. I know I do. ❤️. Have a beautiful day. Sandra
Good morning Sandra, my mother used to give me the same advice when I took my worries to her. She used to repeat a quote which I am sure you know too: “God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference.” Have a happy day - love and blessings, Vivien 🌺💗
Vivien, I love that quote and never tire of hearing or reading it. The truth in just one sentence. Thanks for reminding us. ❤️. Sandra
I applaud you for reaching younger women. You may save them unnecessary grief.

Thanks so much, Demi!❤️
You are so lovely...not just visually...but wisely. I needed this. Thank you .
Barbara, We are all in this together, so I am happy you connected with this today. Thanks for watching and sharing. ❤️. Sandra
I have definitely wasted many years worrying about things beyond my control... thanks for opening my eyes so I can stop this habit
Beulah, I have found in my lifetime that worry is just a wasted emotion. We all do it, but the less we do the better off we are.❤️

Hello Sandra at this moment in time I feel like a guardian Angel is watching over and guiding me. And that Angel is you🙏🏻. Everything you have spoken about in this video I needed to hear right now. I so need to let go of so much stuff…. Bless you 🙏🏻🤗🥰
Dear Sandra! I watch you everyday, even repeated videos, all-ways you make me so happy and relaxed...thank you so much...I have been learning a lot with you ...I’m blessed that I found you...I love you...God bless you and your family
Madalena, I always love hearing from you. God bless and thank you. ❤️. Sandra
Very well said Sandra , this has to be one of my most important and hardest life lessons . Letting go .... detaching sometimes with love .... sometimes forgiveness...having courage to move on even though you can't see the big picture .... I've had to let go of so much , but I have grown , and healed and always look for the gift of passing it on .... you sure are paying it forward , I saw it from the beginning of your you tube channel ... keep up the big lessons for us they are wholesome and full of love , and beautiful reminders of what's important ... good advice can relieve pain and struggle .... give clarity ....just sending all the best vibes your way ! From one Capricorn to Another !
Diana, so beautifully expressed. We all have struggles, questioned our decisions and picked ourselves up and moved on. If we live life, things happen. That’s why I started my channel. We all need love and support and encouragement and my having walked through a lot, want to help others. Thank you for walking with me. ❤️. Sandra
I needed to hear this absolutely!❤ I’ve been struggling with a depressed ill relative…all my emotions trying to help him, my own family, myself neglected…he’s so selfish…sorry, I felt like you’ve lifted off a ton of weight, trying to FIX him…thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼God Bless
Sandra, you're such a balm for the eyes, ears, mind, and heart! Thank you!! 🏵️🏵️🏵️🏵️
That is so kind of you. Thank you so much. ❤️ Sandra
Agree 🤗❤️🌷💐👏
Sandra is amazing human being 👏
Hugs to you Yottabee 🤗🌷
Thank you...just what I needed to hear at this very moment. I'm 42 and love your wisdom. 💚
Demi, Thank you! Sandra
Hi Sandra, I just sent this video to my mom. I actually think that this would be a great video that absolutely anybody could benefit from watching. My husband came down with a virus called Bell's palsy about 7 weeks ago which is a temporary paralysis of half of the face. The recovery is slow going and sometimes 2 steps forward and 3 steps back. He is doing acupuncture, meditating, drinking a tea that tastes terrible because his acupuncturist swears it will help speed up his recovery and he is eating healthy and trying to exercise when he feels like it. This virus also makes him sensitive to sound which is kind of a big deal because he is a composer. Talk about something being out of his control. The recovery could take 3 months, 6 months or as long as a year. Considering our situation, I found your words in this video to be very calming and therapeutic. Thank you for that. I really appreciate it. Have a wonderful day!
Melhut, I know exactly what Bell’s Palsy is because my female cousin had it several years ago. Her face on one side was paralyzed. She finally recovered, but it took quite a few months. I hope your husband has a complete recovery soon. The acupuncture and meditation are great for healing and shoulders really help him. Thank you for sharing this with your mother. We have to learn to focus on those things we have control over. Thank you for sharing your story. ❤️. Sandra
I've watched this video twice and will surely watch it several times more. Very important messages. I am able to hear your message because you radiate kindness and caring. Thank you.
I hope it will help. Thank you. ❤️. Sandra
I LOVE THIS! I am 51 and I feel this way right now. I really feel like time goes by so fast that when you get older you appreciate what means the most and matters. I am a worrier. I think that it is very important to spend time with those you love. I do worry about my health a lot. and I wish I would just accept that things are the way they are. Thank you for your great advice. xoxoxo Becki
Becki, I struggle with worry all the time. It is a wasted emotion and I am getting better at having more faith that everything will work out! Let’s work on that together!!! ❤️. Sandra
@@lifewithsandrahart Sandra, Thank you!! Yes I agree. I grew up with that thought mode and it is a good learning process to stop it now and change my mind set. I love your videos. :) Hugs!!
I return to this video as a constant reminder. It's so easy to slip back into old habits. Although I am 90, I still have a lot to learn!
Hi Sandra I must say that I prefer your hair naturally curly. It is more youthful. Its more liberating to let hair do its own thing.
Much love Monique
I have finally giving in and realize that Monica. Not only is it easier but natural is more nice I think in many ways than one.❤️
I can see that what you are saying is very serious and important to you. Excellent video, you always talk the truth. ❤️
Joanne, I have had to train myself not to care about things I have no control over. It has made my life easier with less stress. ❤️. Sandra
Great advise Sandra ,no more energy I can’t control but I learned this the wiser and older I got we must beleive in ourselfs,I know what I hold close, my path, and my commitment thanks Sandra 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙👒👒👒👒👒👒👒👒👒👒👒👒👒👒👒😊✊🇺🇸😎
Thank you, Bernadette. ❤️. Sandra
Thank you Sandra for your wisdoms..you are very special for caring for our humanity
Thank you so very much Mary for recognizing that I really do care.❤️
Thank you Sandra I needed the reminder. The waterfall or swimming pool water sounds were soothing and your patio is pretty. Have a wonderful day and again thank you for sharing.
Linda, Good evening. I really like filming outside whenever I can. We have had so much rain recently everything is so green. Thanks for watching. Have a great week. . ❤️. Sandra
Miss Sandra, I can't possibly thank you enough. I think I may be making this video a daily viewing. What a message I desperately needed to hear. Blessings to you.
Grace, I’m so happy this has helped. Let go of the things that don’t matter in your life. ❤️. Sandra
Sandra im so glad I found u. on u tube but this is the first time im writing..Everything u. Said about the subject on things u. cannot control, is so true but I just cannot help myself..Four yrs. ago, I opened a FB, & for me, I think it was a mistake.I worry about everything & I know I cannot control the world..The thing the really kills me is cruelty, especially animals..I will go out of my way if I see anyone, that's harming animals & I try to send money have rescued but its endless, & I know u. know this..I get totally angry& anxious where its ruining my health..I can't sleep at night thinking HOW, people can do what they do..I know, I cannot control people but I have gotten worse as I age..Yes, I should be putting my energy on something else but I can't seem to & feel guilty if im not helping the voiceless..Im very blessed with wonderful husband but I try to control what I cannot..I need some words of wisdom...thank you...
Susie, We are animal lovers, so I know exactly how you feel. We help support neuter and then release of our local cats that people leave behind when they move. It is so cruel. We have a group that feed these sweet animals and the ones that can be domesticated we find homes for them. I feed the squirrels and birds every time I take my dog for a walk. There are evil people in the world that abuse animals so all you can do is to help those in your town by donating dog food to shelters or if you are able volunteer to play or walk the shelter animals. Your caring is so heartwarming, but none of us can save all the sweet animals. Just be grateful there are good people who are working to help these abuse animals. They need your prayers, so don’t worry yourself sick or they will lose a good kind soul and advocate like you. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. ❤️. Sandra
regrets are a painstalking waste of time to dwell upon
and never stress the things beyond your control just live for the now because it's the only thing that you have
Thank you Sandra. This was so very helpful. You are such a wise and warm hearted lady. GOD bless☺🐦🎤
So happy Your could takeaway something from this, Claudia. ❤️ Sandra
You are so interesting. I love how you reference your own life experiences and let people get to know you via your vlogs. I find you amazing and can’t thank you enough for the wisdom you share. It is so needed. Thank you Sandra. 🌷
Stephanie, Thank you for watching these videos. I try to share as much as I can and keep it as real as I can. I appreciate your opinion. ❤️
Sandra you are absolutely right. I am at that stage where I am thinking about downsizing. I like yourself have been thru alot. I can't believe I made it this far. I think about what you are saying all the time. Thank you Sandra. Santa from nonna santa in cucina.💗

Zarina, we can, can’t we. Thanks for sharing. ❤️. Sandra
That You for every word of Wisdom!! May God guide us, All!
I just discovered your channel few days ago and can’t really stop watching it. U r so wise and even though you may think in youtube as a connection with other women living the same stage as yours, I want u to know that for a guy on his twenties your message passes through his spirit and makes him feel really proud and hopeful about the generation we need to reflect ourselves on, as the mirror that we want to find for our future. Am glad to know how much u like Argentina. Kind regards xxx
Juan, Hola y gracias. What a beautiful post filled with mature spirit! Thank you for watching and letting me know you are here. Your generation will be fine. ❤️. Sandra
It is easy to get caught up on whatever is going on around us! Thank you for the timely reminder to love yourself so we can love others. If the love fund is empty, we cannot withdraw any.
Excellent comment. Thank you. ❤️. Sandra
Thank you for those words. ....I see myself learning so much from you.
Thank you Sandra.
Thank you, Mylena. ❤️. Sandra
Oh No,THANK YOU, Sandra when I was 21 my best friend Lisa Leben was 91, she taught me so much , imagine she had moved to South Beach and had divorce her husband in New York City in the forties , she was so smart and beautiful just like you.
Never stop, Sandra!!
Your husband is back & I so appreciate reading each & every comment that women are making. It would be nice to include all of them in a book. March 1, 2022♥️♥️♥️
Aren’t they wonderful ! I’m enjoying each and every one!
Thank you for your words of wisdom, Sandra. Love those sunglasses, too!
Thanks for your help and I appreciate your time and understanding
Thank you so much sweet lady. Thank you for your down to earth and so real TH-cam channel. Bless you!

Such sage advice. I really am taking this to heart...life changing. Thank you Sandra
Thank you for watching, SeasonedDiva! ❤️. Sandra
Thank you so much Sandra, for such wise words! They will be very helpful for me! 🌹🙏❤️
Thank you so much Sandra for sharing your uplifting message. How true we try to control things , I too have let go and let be and tell myself if it’s meant to be then let it happen. Only thing I seem to forget is me, In the process, I forget that I am just as important and need to be acknowledged and cared for too
And I have myself to blame, and need to put myself back in front of the line. I always enjoy the time spent with you on Utube you are such a friend to visit and enjoy some Special time with. Bless you dear heart, much love coming your way.💗💗💗
Thank you very much Maria. Self-love and taking care of yourself is so important. It’s nothing to feel guilty about. If you take care of you then you’re better able to take care of others that you love❤️
Thank you for your wisdom! Life is crazy and you have a way of putting it into prospective 😍
Thank you Sharon. Sometimes it takes an outside voice help us understand our own lives.❤️
You are a beautiful and wise lady, I learn a lot from you.
Thank you so much for your kindness and for being here.❤️
Wise advices and thoughts. It made me reflect about my life. Thank you Sandra❤
I’m glad it did. ❤️. Sandra
Thank you for this wonderful video. Im a wife of a stroke patient and have tried to keep the family together but its been very difficult at times. I do have to fix things all the time, medical, bills , house, college kids etc... but I have to recognize the things I cant and shouldnt. Youre words touched my soul.
Monica, Thank you so much for posting. I have friends who are in your same position and know what your are going through. Life doesn’t tell us ahead of time what is in store for us. Maybe it’s better that way. We deal with it when we have to. There is no way that you can do it all. Choose the immediate things you need to deal with and that are in your control. Let the other situations you have no control over go for now. Women with families have been working out problems our whole lives. We have a lifetime of experience of choosing what needs caring about. Thank you so much for sharing! ❤️. Sandra
What a wonderful video. Words of wisdom. I thank you for sharing it's good food for thought. It really spoke to me too I worry about too much and need to let go and focus on what matters most.
Let go of those situations you can’t control and care about those that you can. ❤️. Sandra
Found your channel a few weeks ago. I appreciate you sharing your life.
Kathleen, I’m so happy that you found me and that you have decided to join our group of wonderful subscribers here on this journey.

As I said earlier to one of my subscribers we are not one of the women and we have a lot of interest and issues that we are concerned about and we want to pursue to help us through the very best life ever going forward.❤️
I am delighted to see you.l am obsessed about my family as well.l don't see them very often because of the covid.l feel better as l have joined you.l have a feeling you are talking only to me and cheering me.This makes me feel so good, and l am not so lonely.God bless you,dear Sandra!

Thanks Sandra for these words of wisdom. So appreciate your sharing. May you have a wonderful day.
Luann, Thanks for watching and spending time with me this evening. ❤️. Sandra
I’m so glad I found your channel. I’m 32. I Care so much about what others think and just want people to be happy with me. I have severe panic and anxiety. I’m pregnant with baby number 2 and I feel like enough is enough. I need to figure me out so I can be the best me for my kids
The more you concentrate on you and your welfare and self care and the less you care what people think, the happier and better off you will be. Age has helped me realize that.
Wonderful advise and ever so true, thank you for your wisdom.
Donna, Thank you. ❤️. Sandra
Thank you for your beautiful inspiring words. I didn’t want this video to end. It made cry. It’s so heart felt.
You are providing a better service than any doctor or counsellor. Right now you are a godsend in my life….
Jasmine 😘🤗👍
Hi Sandra: I came back later to listen to your words again in this video. So much wisdom; we can all benefit from this wonderful advice. We appreciate all the topics you discuss, as life truly becomes more challenging with age. Thanks so much for s great start to the week! Rosemarie ♡
Rosemarie, Thank you for being so supportive. I know I sometimes have deeper content than some creators, so I’m not too sure if a particular topic will be of interest. I appreciate your input. ❤️. Sandra
Thank you for reminding us of what is truly important. You have so much wisdom, I just love to listen to you Sandra. God bless.🙏🏻❤️
Martha, I always enjoy hearing from you. Thank you so much and thank you for your support. We al have struggles, don’t we. None of us escape. ❤️ Sandra
many thanks for this vídeo and wisdom that help us to be a better person to the world and ourselves! namaste 🙏 🌸 🤚
Watching this video May 2021. Such a perfect video for this time in my life. Is TH-cam reading my mind?!?
It’s great news that this topic resonates with you right now. ❤️
Such a great lesson to learn as we age - thank you so much for being yourself Sandra - powerful information for us all.
Thanks, Kathy! ❤️ Sandra
Once again a wonderfully inspiring video thankyou xx
The first 2 minutes of the video are really thought provoking. We all face different problems in life, and so for each of us our focus could differ, but so true what you say Sandra! We should focus on what we can control, and have believe in ourselves, this may not solve all our problems but will surely help. Yes! We are the caretakers of the world.
Mary, We really are the nurturers of mankind. We are also sometimes carrying heavy burdens that we can’t control. I know I have had to learn to put those aside and focus on those that I really care about and can work through. Thanks for sharing. ❤️. Sandra
Hi Sandra this came up in my feed today and so I re-watched it and wow! What an insightful video and so helpful for me today in my life! Thank you love you!
Well, thank you, Kimberly. I’m so happy you found this video discussion and glad that it may have helped you today. ❤️. Sandra
Thank You Sandra for this talk. It makes so much sense. I can identify with this so much. Thank You again!
Ora, We all have challenges and the problem is choosing which really matter, isn’t it? ❤️. Sandra
Thank you Sandra. God bless.
Blessings right back to you, too.❤️
Thank you, thank you. I am a perfectionist, and I notice every detail. It really does rob me of joy. I’ve struggled with letting go. It is not easy. How I have wished and prayed to not even notice the details, but I don’t think that’s going to happen. I need to focus on looking past them. Your message about looking at the bigger picture is what I needed. I enjoy your videos very much. Sheri
Sheri, I am a person who likes to fix and be in control, too. I had to learn to finally let go of things I couldn’t control and to only care about those I could. ❤️. Sandra
I am enjoying every one of your videos, you are such a warm and loving person.
Thank you, Shirley! ❤️
Hello Sandra! I am so enjoying your channel! I feel like I have a friend that really cares and give good suggestions and advice, without overwhelming me. I know you understand experiencing, cocooning, and growing from change and loss. I have dealt with anxiety most of my life and I find that being able to listen to someone who has experience life in many ways comforts me and helps me refocus. Thank you so much for being here! Much love, Trish
Trish thank you for your wonderful comment. It makes me feel like I’m doing something that matters.❤️
Cuanta verdad en tu charla Sandra. Me encanta..!!!! Love U.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Maria Gracias! ❤️. Sandra
Hello Sandra You are a blessing. So insightful and wise. I have been retired since January of this year and I feel as if I am still waiting for something to happen. in my life We took a 7 day cruise to Mexico in February Now my husband and I and my daughters' family are leaving for about 2 weeks in Massachusetts Cape Cod I keep trying to think of my passions but I can come up with reading and since I always thought I wanted to be a teacher as a child, but went into nursing instead ....!!! Well my brain goes in circles sometimes I really look forward to your videos and since I am new I can watch your previous ones and really enjoy them. Where my picture should be is really a pic of the view from the house we rent on Cape Cod which is beautiful My soul is more at peace near the ocean Pat
Pat, Welcome. I am so happy you are joining me for the journey we are traveling. There are so many freedoms you now have in retirement. This is going to be the best chapter in your life. I live the ocean and an ocean view is really important to me. Enjoy your satay in Cape Cod. It is such a beautiful
place. Sandra
Amazing chat today dear Sandra, I have such admiration for you. Shining a light on our own lives and the way we deal with problems is exactly the message I needed today! I know a lot of stress could be eliminated by concentrating only on those I have the ability to control. I think as women perhaps we try to have more control but, that doesn’t work! I appreciate your words of encouragement, given with such love & understanding. Thank you so much I appreciate you!
We all have different lives unique to our situations, but I think women are so used to juggling ten things at a time, it’s hard to stop caring about too many things, even those we have no control over. I am still learning to focus on the important things in my life. ❤️. Sandra
Life Over Sixty With Sandra, that is something I need to really work on, I can’t change my adult boys! I try to be understanding but I see them making such mistakes I want to help. I have 7 sons so I’m sure you understand my feelings. Thank you so much Sandra
Sandra, what wise words......I wish I heard that message when I was way younger.....I have wasted a lot of time worrying about things I can't control.....the older I get I realize that you have to chose the things you worry about.....I can remember sooo much wasted time ......I think for me it has to be a control thing I want to be able to control things and worrying about the outcomes of things is a control thing to an extent. You are right it is an everyday thing to work on. I absolutely love your talks giving me sooo much to think about......hope your enjoying your summer.....:-).....Debbie
Debbie, I agree. I do think it’s a control thing. I have been so guilty of that. I am learning every day what I really should care about.and it is allowing me to live a more fulfilled and happier life. Letting go can be good. ❤️. Sandra
Words of wisdom, dear Sandra, like always. Thank you!
Thanks for watching and giving your support. ❤️. Sandra
Great messages as always. That is so true. Sometimes we have to say no to some people that do drain us always asking for favors. I know I need to care for myself because no one else is going to do it for me. LIFE's lessons. I am learning to enjoy life more so now than ever before because I realized life is a gift......as always sending you my love...............ILY.......MINDY
Mindy, as usual you are living life the right way. We all need to follow your lead! ❤️. Warm wishes your way. Sandra
Thank you Sandra, I really needed your wisdom, your kind words today.
Diane, I am happy you got something from this! ❤️. Sandra
my wave to an angel, always as beautiful as ever, say hello to Arthur and GOD BLESS YOU BOTH, AND YOUR LITTLE DOG too.
Thanks James!
