JJ, found your channel and so happy I did. Learning more as I continue to move forward in my menopause/fitness journey. The supplements part of this video you talk about Geranylgeraniol, and creatine can you please share a specific brand that you have found is best. I know many brands claim to do things but not all supplements are created equal. Appreciate your help. Thank you for your awesome videos. ❤
Live in a very small town in Mississippi there’s nothing nearby like classes anyway I just need prayer and advice. I like to get advice from someone in their 60s his things changed from BP to 60 so much change because I used to be an instructor now I don’t wanna do one thing, something
I'm 67 and people are always surprised. I love telling people I'll be 70 in 3 years. I returned to the gym 3 years ago and stopped drinking and started eating a real foods diet. Lost 45 lbs and in some ways I am in the best shape of my life. 33 inch waist 168 lbs. 12 year throat cancer survivor.
@@kathycheng2413 I had 2 surgeries one to remove my tonsils. It's not the same as thyroid, however because I had head and neck radiation that damaged my carotid arteries and my thyroid function that I am now on Levothyroxine for thyroid and Carotids are damaged by scar tissue and inoperable. One is 100% and the other 70 to 90% blocked. I am asymtomatic and could live another 14 years which is why losing weight, exercise, and a keto diet are so important. Cancer feeds on sugar so you want to limit that.
I am 60 and my biggest secret is happiness, purpose, and connection to family, friends and community! A healthy diet, exercise, and keeping my brain active do no hurt!
As a board-certified Internst and Geriatrician, as well as a woman in her 60s, I can say definitvely that a positive attitude, learning new skills and rediscovering old talents can contribute significantly to longevity!
I’m 27 and I love watching content like this! It’s never too early to start incorporating these things into my life. Women like you inspire me to focus on my health and look forward to aging gracefully in the future! 😌
Someone once said, ‘Keeping slim, trim, and fit as you age is a “status symbol”. Doing so keeps you vibrant and energetic instead of lethargy w/ a lackluster life. JJ is certainly proof.
I’m almost 63 years YOUNG!!!😃😁🥰 I have tried to eat CLEAN EATING for 40+ years. My husband & I just had our 40th Wedding Anniversary!!! My husband has had 38 years of medical problems. Life hasn’t been easy, but I have always tried to think POSITIVE & 🙏 PRAY a LOT!!! It has definitely helped!!! I have thoroughly ENJOYED your videos!!! Thank you so very much for sharing your valuable information!!!😊❤😃
Watching from Philippines. I enjoy watching all her videos. For me a secret to being young is to keep things easy, avoid being angry, keep things cool. Watch funny videos or movies, give your time to play or get along with your children or literally play like volleyball or badminton whatever u feel. Don't make your stomach full. Eat more vegetables and fruits. Pray and meditate early in the morning. Jogging, gym or dance with the tune of lambada 😅 or any kind of tune u want wether chacha or boogie. Take fish oil and collagen. Use sunscreen everyday. Drink more water. Good evening. God bless us ❤
I’m 55 this year, I was made redundant from my job at 51. Was so worried about it at the time, but It gave me an opportunity to study and retrain for the career I now have and I love every single day of going into work. I now need to get myself in better shape, you are giving me inspiration to start taking that seriously. Thank you xx
I'm 62, have 4 kids and two still in high school. I NEVER have a problem sleeping!!! I also swim every other day, from half hour to an hour. It's tough on the hair, but I've found I'm in better shape now than when I was a runner, ever. I'm trying to lift weights on my off days and working on my diet. I also work in my yard like a farmer. I honestly cannot imagine sprinting or even running now, I just don't trust my knees/ankles. Thanks for the videos!
Working out but being consistent. You put the time in you can stay fit at any age. I’m 67, size 2, and still wear my clothes from when I was 16. It may sound crazy but also you have 58 muscles in your face and yes being consistent working out your face using your hands again being consistent I swear by. To keep your skin smooth you can dry brush your skin including your face again being consistent. You can start this at any age. It’s all about being consistent and ANYONE can do it with garanteed results…👍
@@nancyracies8824 Hi Nancy, there are many brushes and mitts to dry brush your body and face. If you google dry brushing brushes and mitts for beginners you will find many. And as your skin gets firmer you would then graduate to a more abrasive brush or mitt. It should always feel comfortable to your skin. In my case I went to the most abrasive dry brushing mitt right from the start ONLY because my body was firm from working out and my face was firm because I work out my face. Like I said we have about 58 muscles in our face. Hope this helps to answer your question.
@@happyhealthyatpeace1924 There is so many videos on face exercises you can google on line. I have been working out my face faithfully since I was 42. My body faithfully since I was 32. Face exercises is consistency just like your body. I recommend very highly these two you can google for face exercises. They are “Carol Maggio Face Exercises” and “Carolyn Cleaves Face exercises.” You can ask Carolyn any questions and she will answer back and try to help you. I did an article on her a while back ago. She knows her stuff..👍 If you do contact her, mention that I sent you. Hope this is helpful. Thx, Vicky Waite
When I was in my 40's, people regularly thought I was 10 years younger than I was. It happened so frequently that when I told someone my age and they didn't seem surprised by my age, I actually felt a little insulted. Then I gained 80lbs and surprisingly people stopped thinking I was 10 years younger.
I'm the opposite. I'm sick and tired of people acting shock when someone, including me, reveals their age just because they are perceived younger. What if we just normalized aging really well and people stop acting like someone's an alien for looking good at a certain age? I would love for that day to come.
Good post. The key is really to avoid toxins, exercise all your life, drink lots of water and eat healthy, and be positive...and genetics too play a role....Have a great day!
I will be turning 64 in 2 weeks…I feel like 42. I take care of myself eat healthy- vegetarian. I did the whole 30 diet and lost 12 lbs in 2 months…game changer. … will go on that life style change after 4th of July. I will follow you and I am sure you can give me lots of great advice. So thank you .
Those stars have had all sorts of surgical procedures, facelifts, etc. so we can’t compare ourselves to that. Have you had procedures done? Breast implants? Fillers, Botox?
I took up scuba diving at 58 and i love it. Its oornefba whole new world to me. I also have been lifting weights at least 4 to 5 times a week...feeling good for 64
I’m 36 and just found her channel. I’m on a journey to become the healthiest version of myself possible, including losing 30+ pounds, eating Whole Foods, 150+ grams of protein per day, 100 oz of water daily and continuing with my self-care rituals. I like this content!
Thanks for the encouragement! At 62 I’m struggling with thyroid and adrenal issues which creates extreme fatigue. I am on a protocol to heal, and hope to be able to exercise regularly 6 months from now. Reducing the wine was a great decision! I’m doing the same. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for this. I'm 54, recently retired, and am on a journey to reinvent myself! P.S. For cardio, have you ever tried a Zumba class? So much fun and you burn a lot of calories!!!
You look amazing!!! Ignore the haters. They likely don't look anywhere near as great (or as in shape) whatever their age is. Jealous people can be extremely mean, especially hiding behind cryptic addresses.
I find it very hard to get rid of my belly fat. I am 5’5” and 162 lbs looking to lose some weight and do some strength trying. I am a beginner. I have been wanting to get started. You are inspiring me. Thank you soooo very much!😊🌻
I’m also 5’5… last year at this time I was 162. I’m now down to 145. It’s been a slow process but I changed up a few things. Really cut back and cut out all to most sugars. I try and do 100 squats a day, 10-15 at a time. Can be done just during the tv commercials. Walking more and drinking more water. I could hit it harder and be at my goal weight of 125, but I just haven’t. 😜 But any positive change will make some small good changes. 👍🏻😊
You are doing a lot! lol I’m doing strength training and walking. I’m 65. I dropped cardio because it was keeping me from losing weight. It seems it was over stressing me. Cortisol is real 😮. Since I stopped cardio.. I’m building muscle and sleeping better…. Finally losing weight 😊
Ok. Now you've got my attention. I believe you have good genes which figures in. But I turned 50 this past week myself and I thought you were younger than me. You are proof you know what you're talking about. Happy birthday!
Im turning 66 in September. Aging healthily is like preparing for financial retirement. You must fill the account throughout your life to thrive in the last Chapter. Unfortunately, most people don't know what that means or are unwilling to do it.
Great video! Lots of great info. I’m turning 60 (it’s Jeffrey) Karen and I are doing most of these same things. We are really focused on travel and seeing the world! We are living our best lives now!!!
Just discovered you. Fantastic information and inspiration. I am 61 and working on building a daily morning exercise routine I can stick to and track. I do stairs in my building, walk outside rapidly then do upper body and mountain climbers out on the porch. Fresh air helps me keep going. I am adding more arms with your arms workout video. Thank you!! I am excited to have a digital friend to go on this journey with.
I found a sleep tonic on Motivational Doc granted I'm only using part of it but it keeps me sleeping soundly every night. I boil a cup of water put in 1/4 teaspoon ground Ginger and squeeze half of a lemon. I add stevia for sweetness but they recommend honey.
Thank you for your video. I am 70 and have worked out my whole life, it has served me well. I am also kicking up my strength training as I have gotten older. The heavier weights are super important and I was a former athlete.
Can you provide links/more info on urolithin A, creatine monohydrate, and geranylgeraniol..where to purchase. Great video with helpful information. At 61 and living in Florida with heat and humidity..I need all the help I can get to stay in shape!
I would love to see a video geared towards a complete workout regime that doesn’t include needing a gym membership or expensive equipment like stair master etc.
I just turned 60 this May. And seeing this random video caught my eye on TH-cam! It is exactly what I needed as I’ve noticed a lot of lack of muscle tone and muscle from my arms and legs. I will certainly have to watch more of your videos to help tone and gain muscle. Thank you!💪🏼
It would be nice if you would list your suppliment and exercise equipment, etc in your notes below. It would help a lot as I'm furiously writing it down and end up having to re-watch several times to get it all. Thanks Really enjoying the information ❤
I'm 61 and the biggest positive fitness related change for me was getting a Pilates Reformer three years ago. I've been working out since 1984 but I much prefer the Pilates style of working out. My core strength has improved so much over the last three years. My flexibility and mobility have also improved significantly. Back pain is gone. (I also love doing full body HITT workouts.).
Try doing planks to engage all your core muscles & strengthen your back. Cher could plank for 5 minutes when she was 72 (standard, straight line plank). I'm your age, my record is 8 min but I average 4 to 5 min. Planking since 2017. I also walk for hours, do the 'splits' & cartwheels, lift a pair of 8 lb dumbbells to tone my arms, some basic Pilates.@@Daisy-xl4xu
When I see your smile, I have to watch your video to see why you're smiling. That could help you get more views and subscribers. I have been very fond of you for years since I read the Virgin Diet book. I never thought you were near 60 until I watched this video. Basically, we need to keep trying and moving forward, and not just sit back waiting to die like so many seniors do. I enjoyed the great ideas in this video, and although I've had many health issues, I will always try to do better. May the Lord bless you and yours, and I look forward to seeing you smile on the next video so I have to watch and learn from it and know why you're smiling.
I'm 60 and following a healthy keto life stylist. Lost 15 pounds already. Once I started following you I change to strengthen routines, and it is definitely working 👌 THANK YOU ❤ for all your educational advice. You are a book of knowledge, specifically for all of us getting to this point in our lives - fyi, I love being 60
Long history of fibro, then neurological symptoms, neuro attacks. optic nerve damage, hypothyroid and now hypertension :-(. Done it all to try and get better. Settled on anti-inflammatory diet, gf/df, exercise (walking/yoga). Yoga practice for 11 years to rehab from neuro events(all triggered by pharma, sun, vaccine). Also have cold uticaria and sun sensitive now, but no autoimmune diagnosis. Challenged with the hpertension since I'm so sensitive to meds. I also can no longer put weight on my wrists with wrists at 90 degrees. Ortho doc said arthritis likely in one and the other I fractured last summer while hiking and still painful. Fell this winter on daily walk on ice and tore meniscus. I can walk and hike now but can't fully straighten leg. Did PT. So tired of the self care when you keep going backwards in health. I'm 61. Health issues started around age 37. I think folks like us have to find balance with the exercise as I have limited energy. I've done supplements out the yazoo over the years and don't think that is the answer. Though I do take Co10, vitamin D, B complex for MTFHR, vitamin C, motherwort . Was taking carditone for high BP but it's no longer working. Help!
Hi, I am 65, happy to find your channel. Would you please explain for women like my age how we can fix our eye vision and get rid of glasses that we need to have them on all the time when we get older. You look so beautiful without glasses.
Thank you @asmaagetan3548 ! JJ has a podcast with Dr. Rudrani Banik, Board-certified Ophthalmologist, to provide her expertise on topics related to eye health. You can listen to that here: jjvirgin.com/main-podcast/what-supplements-do-you-recommend-for-your-eyes-in-your-40s-and-50s-ep-105/ Cheers, Team JJ
I just found your videos and plan to listen to all of them. I will be 70 in a couple of days and it's really bothering me. I was suddenly widowed at 32 with 2 babies. I was a fitness instructor and 'health nut' and still am. I'm a lifelong vegetarian and so are my kids. My son owns a gym and coaches skiing. I was skiing bumps on June 1, '23 despite an old knee injury. Unfortunately, I have many old injuries as well as lyme disease. I never met a decent man again and I am getting so depressed. I am lonely and miss sharing my life. I know attitude plays a crucial part in health. I look much younger than my years and always have. My sleep is poor, anxiety high and I'm so tired. I am working on an attitude adjustment. Unless you're designed that way, being single sucks. I don't fit in and tired of trying. Anyway, I didn't mean to go on a rant. I think staying fit and eating well are easy. Being alone and lonely are not. Thank you for all your ideas. I'm always learning and teaching.
At 60, embracing new goals, wellness routines, and mindful fitness has made all the difference. Building muscle and maintaining a healthy mindset is crucial. Focus on consistency, self-care, and staying curious-your future self will thank you!
Good to know as I approach 45! The only thing is alcohol really isn’t recommended anymore in any kind of health focused approach and Dr Amen for sure recommends zero alcohol as well as Dr Huberman who says there are really no benefits to wine. So I follow that advice and yours will be a great addition to add to my life, I already meditate, walk with my dog every day, and do yoga when I can.
@@monicarose2135 yes, and alcohol hurts women the most because of the spike in estrogen and that leads to breast cancer. I’m so puzzled when my friends are sipping wine and talking about how many of their friends are getting breast cancer. Cognitive dissonance for sure.
I am with you, don’t like cardio and yoga. Turning 61 soon. Working on getting stronger too. Will add strength training … thank you! I just found this video 7/8/23.
I found this video so interesting, especially the chat about mitochondria. I have mitochondrial disease, there is no cure for it but the hospital have given me Q10 to help with the muscle aches. I’m 51 and I’ve found since I’ve got into my 50’s mito is really causing me issues. I’ve had a few falls and am really suffering with pain and weakness. Thank you for such a great video and I have subscribed ❤
I have a question regarding Creatine- what is the difference between monohydrate and micronized creatine? My son gave me a micronize creatine but I wonder if it has different effects.
I'm 43. I found you yesterday on some podcast. You were the guest. And I'm so glad I did! I've been binge listening to your videos since then. Very informative videos. You motivated me to go back to the gym and build more muscle, so thank you!! ❤
You do look 10 years younger, being fit and having beautiful hair like you do helps. So many of us end up with thin hair, bald women don’t look young 🤦🏼♀️
wear a wig...soo many natural looking lace wigs. Every woman over 60 shud have a wig. Black women start wearing wigs and weaves at 16. Don't know why you all shy away from them and walk around with bald spots and alopecia. Lace wigs you can shampoo with and not take off for a fortnight until you go to your hair dresser and she'll do it for you along with a nice scalp cleansing and shampoo and then put it back on. Like live a little.
Not true. My cousin is so lovely. She’s 59, very thin hair but her natural blonde color. She’s very fit and lean and has beautiful teeth, and she looks to be more around age 50 versus almost 60. Finding the right hair style for thin hair is more important versus just the thickness 😁
Hormone imbalance doesn't help. At the meantime I've started using Nutrafol and Vegamour. Just after a couple of days, I noticed that my hair has stopped falling. Give it a try!
I just discovered you... hooray! Thank you for all this beautiful information for sharing all your wisdom with us. Can you give a few recommendations for which scale to buy to measure body composition there are a lot of them out there and I'd love to get one on your recommendation.
Loved this video. What brand of geranylgeranial do you take? I take Creatine and find it is making a difference in the gym. I am 63 and have decided to embrace retirement by taking the next 2 months to focus on me. I plan to lose these extra pounds I have put on, do more cardio , do more stretching and continue to focus on heavy lifting.
Love your videos, totally hooked! I have a dry sauna also, love it. Mine goes up to 140*, I go in for 1.5 hr up to 2 hours. It really drains the toxins. How long do go in the sauna?
I've been studying health and nutrition for decades and many have always thought I was younger than I am but I have certainly felt a decline over the last few years due to loss of friends and family members, esp. my younger brother, parents and most recently my husband of 40 yrs (sudden and unexpected)...so, at 71, I am needing a shift in selfcare and will implement some of these strategies but your routine is expensive and time-consuming as I try to maintain our ranch in California. Sadly, this is unrealistic and out of reach for most of us.
I just discovered you site and feel lost, I am 77 with some previous back and shoulder surgeries and wonder what you could suggest I concentrate on. I take basic supplements, and have difficulty walking because of back issues. I really miss personal training but discovered when I try it sets me back. Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.😢
Look up senior yin yoga, yin yoga strengthens the tendons and ligaments. Just go super slow and be very mindful. You could also try chair sitting yoga. Swimming and water aerobics, stretching. Build incrementally and even if you do 5 mins of stretching and 5 mins of calisthenics. Hope this helps, you got this!!
I lost weight and do strength training . My nervous system is shot to pieces . My husband has ADHD and depression . So it is hard to deal with him . I can’t drink alcohol and I had severe menopause symptoms . I am trying to help myself . I eat mainly clean foods . I also suffered fibromyalgia and I do a lot of walking so I don’t end up getting worse . I am 60 years old and can’t find a job because of my age . When I feel stressed , I do meditation . I want to improve myself even more .
Love your content JJ! I am really interested in making sure I can build muscle as I recently found out I am subclinical hypothyroid 😥 I've always wondered why putting on muscle seems to be so much easier for other people and now I know! But now you also armed me with supplements to fight back with!
It all sounds like sound advice! Are you able to provide the sources of the info re supplements though. There are sooooo many out there - I like to read the scientific studies and assess how good the empirical evidence is.
I live on 3rd fl. - go up and down stairs. Actually, carry your loads. Walk fast and drop the car. Always have eaten well. Grew up with this mindset. Just live and view your activities as a workout. Instead of calcuting your every move.
I'm so happy to find your channel. You're a few years older than me, so I'm going to take you as a role model. I agree on the importance of sleep. I'm glad you focus so much on nutrition. I'm good at doing light yoga every day because I ache if I don't. I need to get discipline with using my weights to build strength. Thanks for the inspiration.
I’m 71 nobody can believe me ! I’ve exercised since 27 , eating well , tons of vitamins, I never go to regular doctors! Natural path doctor all the way ~ and faith in God 🙏🏻
I did Tony Robbins the edge to get off of sugar...and that helped me. I've been off of sugar for about three weeks. Sugar just absolutely devastated me so I really needed to get off and now I feel amazing.
Great advice, which supplement do you recommend to gain muscle mass, maintain weight. At 55 I'm still very active increasing weights for strength training, thank you, glad I found your channel. Blessings.
I ditched alcohol period I became actually a functioning alcoholic. I started to look at why I need something to artificially change my mood. I'm exercising again and lost nearly 20lbs so far. I got about 50 to go since I completely let myself go. But onward an upward from here. I am 58 and do not want to live like most Americans who are lethargic and obese. I cringe when I go to the grocery store they have display after display of cakes and cookies and donuts out in front and sugar is pushed like cocaine in my opinion its disgusting. Thank you
What brand of creative do you recommend? I do prefer clean/organic ingredients and I thinking that’s what you are using. Great video and info… I’m 55 and still have people thinking I am 40 to 45. I’d like to keep it that way… ha!
Thank you for all of the inspo and guidelines. My mindset made a big leap after I found Joe Dispenza's books, and started practicing what he teaches. Now I'm entering a new season, my daughters graduated college in May, and are moving, so I'll be an empty nester and focusing solely on myself for the first time in 38 years. You are such an inspiration, and I'm looking forward to saying, "My body totally changed after finding JJ Virgin's books/channel." 😍💗
HIS BOOKS ARE NEW AGE STUFF.....TOTALLY ANTI CHRISTIAN AND ANTI SCIENCE......THEY HAVE PART OF TRUTH BUT THE REST IS ALL LIES....DONT GO DOWN THAT HOLE.....LOOK FOR CONVERSION STORIES FROM NEQ AGE TO JESUS.....THE SPIRITUAL BATTLE THEY FACE FOR OPENING DOORS TO THE ENEMY WITH NEW AGE IS TREMENDOUS!!!....IM CATHOLIC AND JESUSCHRIST HAS SAVED AND TRANSFORMED MY LIFE IN EVERY SINGLE WAY....DO NOT FALL FOR THE ENEMYS CULTS PLEASE NO MATTER HOW ATTRACTIVE THEY SEEM!
Hi Mirna, I haven't changed my personality per se, but yes, I do think and feel differently to a measurable degree. I've definitely made a big shift in my overall mindset, feel a stronger sense of peace, and gotten closer to our Creator on a higher level. I'm more 'tuned in' to being aware that our Creator's energy makes up every living thing around me, including myself. Now when I think of ministers that have advised, "We need to rise higher", "Go to the next level", "Rise above adversity" I see that more literally. I try to stay in that state of being consciously aware of being aware as much as possible.@@mirna-garcia
You look fabulous JJ. I’m 70 and when engaged in casual conversation with strangers and age comes into focus they stop short of accusing me of not telling the truth as they usually guess my age at 50. That said I could stand to lose 5 lbs. I cheat by heritage 😀olive skin and not a single wrinkle, in my mind I LIKE to think of myself with my 25 inch waist I had for most of my life - yes I’m stuck but to your point positive thinking. I refuse to buy larger size clothes. Have always worked out and love your videos and advice. ❤️
LOOKING good for your age! I'm the same age and I think i look pretty damn good. You have to take care of yourself and that's a big job. It can be done!
If you find "regular" yoga and doing cardio a bore, you should really give Kundalini yoga a try. It's definitely a challenge and it's a very different kind of yoga. Kundalini Yoga with Gurmukh is one of my favorites and bonus it's here on youtube.
Thank you for such an informative video :) I'm only 35 but I've randomly become terrified of ageing this year (before these negative thoughts popped into my mind I always felt like a youthful teenager!) seeing women like yourself thriving with every birthday makes me feel less fearful and nervous about the future.
You look very healthy and great good for your age. I think people have gotten too accustomed to people with facelifts so much Botox and fillers that they don’t actually know what a more mature woman looks like and how skin and body ages naturally.
I wish I had this energy. I’ve been anemic for 8 years following a c section and have deep fatigue. Heavy periods. I’m so slim. I think I have low stomach acid due to high stress. I eat so well and do all the right things but don’t gain weight and have hardly any energy. Few skin issues. I want to do so much with exercise but as a mum of 3 running my own business - I can’t. I’m sad about it. I envy you JJ. I feel stuck. I try so hard and have been learning about natural health for years now. I’m not having a good quality of life. 😢
9 Anti-Aging Foods You Should Be Eating Every Day: th-cam.com/video/1Dnw5Fj9bSs/w-d-xo.html
Follow Functional Medicine Docs, so already eating all those. Most nutrients from food but also take a major amount of supplements.
JJ, found your channel and so happy I did. Learning more as I continue to move forward in my menopause/fitness journey. The supplements part of this video you talk about Geranylgeraniol, and creatine can you please share a specific brand that you have found is best. I know many brands claim to do things but not all supplements are created equal. Appreciate your help. Thank you for your awesome videos. ❤

So those of us who lost our family are doomed according to you. Go live in your bubble
You look amazing
And a good fuck from time to time.
agreee... ❤
You look beautiful and young,I don't believe your age.thank you.
As a board-certified Internst and Geriatrician, as well as a woman in her 60s, I can say definitvely that a positive attitude, learning new skills and rediscovering old talents can contribute significantly to longevity!
I’m 27 and I love watching content like this! It’s never too early to start incorporating these things into my life. Women like you inspire me to focus on my health and look forward to aging gracefully in the future! 😌
You are too inseure
If longevity is the goal, these are the role models we need decades earlier!
Right!
Besides aging gracefully, it is also key aging powerfully
Someone once said, ‘Keeping slim, trim, and fit as you age is a “status symbol”. Doing so keeps you vibrant and energetic instead of lethargy w/ a lackluster life. JJ is certainly proof.
Thank you!
@@jjvirginvideos Smokin hot for 60! 🔥
Woo hoo o agree
@@sunshine-bs2jx Beautiful lady.
The goal now is to age backwards. I need to test my biological age. That can be radically different from your birthday!
Please tell me you haven't had a face lift or botox, fillers, or a boob job! I want to believe you are 100% real with all your hard work!
I’m almost 63 years YOUNG!!!😃😁🥰
I have tried to eat CLEAN EATING for 40+ years. My husband & I just had our 40th Wedding Anniversary!!!
My husband has had 38 years of medical problems. Life hasn’t been easy, but I have always tried to think POSITIVE & 🙏 PRAY a LOT!!! It has definitely helped!!!
I have thoroughly ENJOYED your videos!!!
Thank you so very much for sharing your valuable information!!!😊❤😃
Look into giving him your isolated gut bacteria from your faeces, in a capsule. Do some research around this.
It's radical, but it works.
Go vegan 🌱
Watching from Philippines. I enjoy watching all her videos. For me a secret to being young is to keep things easy, avoid being angry, keep things cool. Watch funny videos or movies, give your time to play or get along with your children or literally play like volleyball or badminton whatever u feel. Don't make your stomach full. Eat more vegetables and fruits. Pray and meditate early in the morning. Jogging, gym or dance with the tune of lambada 😅 or any kind of tune u want wether chacha or boogie. Take fish oil and collagen. Use sunscreen everyday. Drink more water. Good evening. God bless us ❤
I’m 55 this year, I was made redundant from my job at 51. Was so worried about it at the time, but It gave me an opportunity to study and retrain for the career I now have and I love every single day of going into work. I now need to get myself in better shape, you are giving me inspiration to start taking that seriously. Thank you xx
That's amazing! It's never too late to start something new. I'm glad you found a career you love. You can do it! Thanks for sharing your story. 😊
I'm 62, have 4 kids and two still in high school. I NEVER have a problem sleeping!!! I also swim every other day, from half hour to an hour. It's tough on the hair, but I've found I'm in better shape now than when I was a runner, ever. I'm trying to lift weights on my off days and working on my diet. I also work in my yard like a farmer. I honestly cannot imagine sprinting or even running now, I just don't trust my knees/ankles. Thanks for the videos!
Wear a swim cap
Thank you for sharing!
I’m 63. But people think I’m 40. Have lots of energy. Have been going to the gym for many years. I’m vegan!
I turn 60 on Monday, Labor Day! Love this!
Working out but being consistent. You put the time in you can stay fit at any age. I’m 67, size 2, and still wear my clothes from when I was 16. It may sound crazy but also you have 58 muscles in your face and yes being consistent working out your face using your hands again being consistent I swear by. To keep your skin smooth you can dry brush your skin including your face again being consistent. You can start this at any age.
It’s all about being consistent and ANYONE can do it with garanteed results…👍
Thank you for sharing, Vicky.
Dry brush my face? I am new to these videos so I don't understand and need all the help I can get. I am 57 and my face looks 15 years older
@@nancyracies8824
Hi Nancy, there are many brushes and mitts to dry brush your body and face. If you google dry brushing brushes and mitts for beginners you will find many. And as your skin gets firmer you would then graduate to a more abrasive brush or mitt. It should always feel comfortable to your skin. In my case I went to the most abrasive dry brushing mitt right from the start ONLY because my body was firm from working out and my face was firm because I work out my face. Like I said we have about 58 muscles in our face. Hope this helps to answer your question.
@@happyhealthyatpeace1924
There is so many videos on face exercises you can google
on line.
I have been working out my face faithfully since I was 42. My body faithfully since I was 32.
Face exercises is consistency just like your body.
I recommend very highly these two you can google for face exercises. They are “Carol Maggio Face Exercises” and “Carolyn Cleaves Face exercises.”
You can ask Carolyn any questions and she will answer back and try to help you. I did an article on her a while back ago. She knows her stuff..👍
If you do contact her, mention that I sent you. Hope this is helpful.
Thx, Vicky Waite
@@bw4564 How do you exercise your face?
This is the type of video I’ve been looking for. I’m 54 and ready to get healthy!
When I was in my 40's, people regularly thought I was 10 years younger than I was. It happened so frequently that when I told someone my age and they didn't seem surprised by my age, I actually felt a little insulted. Then I gained 80lbs and surprisingly people stopped thinking I was 10 years younger.
I'm the opposite. I'm sick and tired of people acting shock when someone, including me, reveals their age just because they are perceived younger. What if we just normalized aging really well and people stop acting like someone's an alien for looking good at a certain age? I would love for that day to come.
Same here. Almost 54, people still think I am not close to 50. Never been obese.
Menopause really takes a toll on the body unless you are on bioidentical HRT
@@selectiveoutrage6617 please speak for yourself, it's not true for everybody, it's not for me.
@@selectiveoutrage6617I’m taking the non bio identical hormones..I hope they are ok..Been taking them for 20 years..😳so far so good.👍
Good post. The key is really to avoid toxins, exercise all your life, drink lots of water and eat healthy, and be positive...and genetics too play a role....Have a great day!
I will be turning 64 in 2 weeks…I feel like 42. I take care of myself eat healthy- vegetarian. I did the whole 30 diet and lost 12 lbs in 2 months…game changer. … will go on that life style change after 4th of July. I will follow you and I am sure you can give me lots of great advice. So thank you .
Do you take hormones?
@@amylee9 no hormones
Sleeping pills?
@@sl4983 no sleeping pills…..but I have in the past the ones you purchase over the counter……it’s not good to “alter” your brain Long term…
What is the 30 diet?
Those stars have had all sorts of surgical procedures, facelifts, etc. so we can’t compare ourselves to that. Have you had procedures done? Breast implants? Fillers, Botox?

You are what you put in your body. Poisons will have a negative affect in the long run and their affect is cumulative.
@@kikibridges8370 yes, and these health celebrities that get all these injected poisons and implants and then talk about being “healthy.” Oxymoron.
I took up scuba diving at 58 and i love it. Its oornefba whole new world to me. I also have been lifting weights at least 4 to 5 times a week...feeling good for 64
I’m 36 and just found her channel. I’m on a journey to become the healthiest version of myself possible, including losing 30+ pounds, eating Whole Foods, 150+ grams of protein per day, 100 oz of water daily and continuing with my self-care rituals. I like this content!
Thanks for the encouragement! At 62 I’m struggling with thyroid and adrenal issues which creates extreme fatigue. I am on a protocol to heal, and hope to be able to exercise regularly 6 months from now. Reducing the wine was a great decision! I’m doing the same. Keep up the good work!
Good luck, same age & nagging injuries 🙏
I’m 64 but everyone says I don’t look or act that way! -whatever that means 😂
Thanks for the inspiration JJ! You look great!!
Thanks for this. I'm 54, recently retired, and am on a journey to reinvent myself! P.S. For cardio, have you ever tried a Zumba class? So much fun and you burn a lot of calories!!!
You look amazing!!! Ignore the haters. They likely don't look anywhere near as great (or as in shape) whatever their age is. Jealous people can be extremely mean, especially hiding behind cryptic addresses.
I find it very hard to get rid of my belly fat. I am 5’5” and 162 lbs looking to lose some weight and do some strength trying. I am a beginner. I have been wanting to get started. You are inspiring me. Thank you soooo very much!😊🌻
I’m also 5’5… last year at this time I was 162. I’m now down to 145. It’s been a slow process but I changed up a few things. Really cut back and cut out all to most sugars.
I try and do 100 squats a day, 10-15 at a time. Can be done just during the tv commercials. Walking more and drinking more water. I could hit it harder and be at my goal weight of 125, but I just haven’t. 😜
But any positive change will make some small good changes. 👍🏻😊
I am so happy I found you!! you are helping me get back to myself...slowly...
You got this! Welcome aboard!
You are doing a lot! lol I’m doing strength training and walking. I’m 65. I dropped cardio because it was keeping me from losing weight. It seems it was over stressing me. Cortisol is real 😮. Since I stopped cardio.. I’m building muscle and sleeping better…. Finally losing weight 😊
Walking correctly is cardio.
I just count my steps… 10,000 a day. It has been very effective
Ok. Now you've got my attention. I believe you have good genes which figures in. But I turned 50 this past week myself and I thought you were younger than me. You are proof you know what you're talking about. Happy birthday!
Thank you, Molly!
Im turning 66 in September. Aging healthily is like preparing for financial retirement. You must fill the account throughout your life to thrive in the last Chapter. Unfortunately, most people don't know what that means or are unwilling to do it.
Great video! Lots of great info. I’m turning 60 (it’s Jeffrey) Karen and I are doing most of these same things. We are really focused on travel and seeing the world! We are living our best lives now!!!
Just discovered you. Fantastic information and inspiration. I am 61 and working on building a daily morning exercise routine I can stick to and track. I do stairs in my building, walk outside rapidly then do upper body and mountain climbers out on the porch. Fresh air helps me keep going. I am adding more arms with your arms workout video. Thank you!! I am excited to have a digital friend to go on this journey with.
That's great to hear! Go you!!!
She just stand in her kitchen and talk, and honestly it’s all I need. She sounds like the real thing, I will watch much more videos with her.❤
I found a sleep tonic on Motivational Doc granted I'm only using part of it but it keeps me sleeping soundly every night. I boil a cup of water put in 1/4 teaspoon ground Ginger and squeeze half of a lemon. I add stevia for sweetness but they recommend honey.
Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for your video. I am 70 and have worked out my whole life, it has served me well. I am also kicking up my strength training as I have gotten older. The heavier weights are super important and I was a former athlete.
Great job!
Can you provide links/more info on urolithin A, creatine monohydrate, and geranylgeraniol..where to purchase. Great video with helpful information. At 61 and living in Florida with heat and humidity..I need all the help I can get to stay in shape!
I would love to see a video geared towards a complete workout regime that doesn’t include needing a gym membership or expensive equipment like stair master etc.
Check this out, this is usually what I recommend starting with: jjvirgin.com/power
This is the most useful video for aging that I've heard. It's practical and from a woman. Thank you!
Glad you think so! Thanks, Stacy.
I agree ! A Woman understands Women keep u the good work & Thanks you ❤
I just turned 60 this May. And seeing this random video caught my eye on TH-cam! It is exactly what I needed as I’ve noticed a lot of lack of muscle tone and muscle from my arms and legs. I will certainly have to watch more of your videos to help tone and gain muscle. Thank you!💪🏼
Glad it was helpful! Welcome aboard!
I am in my 30’s and would recommend Pilates! It’s Amazing for the body especially as if ages because works in muscle tone, flexibility and balance ❤
Hi JJ
I'm Turned 61 years old last month
But my people around me they think I'm around 45 year age
That is blessed me
It would be nice if you would list your suppliment and exercise equipment, etc in your notes below. It would help a lot as I'm furiously writing it down and end up having to re-watch several times to get it all. Thanks
Really enjoying the information ❤
There may be a transcript for this video. Check the description
Excellent strategy JJ… I’m 61 & lift heavy 🏋️♀️. Always room for improvement 👍. Thank you
Keep it up
I'm 61 and the biggest positive fitness related change for me was getting a Pilates Reformer three years ago. I've been working out since 1984 but I much prefer the Pilates style of working out. My core strength has improved so much over the last three years. My flexibility and mobility have also improved significantly. Back pain is gone. (I also love doing full body HITT workouts.).
I need to start Pilates. I’m 53 and my back aches. What is a reformer?
Try doing planks to engage all your core muscles & strengthen your back. Cher could plank for 5 minutes when she was 72 (standard, straight line plank). I'm your age, my record is 8 min but I average 4 to 5 min. Planking since 2017. I also walk for hours, do the 'splits' & cartwheels, lift a pair of 8 lb dumbbells to tone my arms, some basic Pilates.@@Daisy-xl4xu
When I see your smile, I have to watch your video to see why you're smiling. That could help you get more views and subscribers. I have been very fond of you for years since I read the Virgin Diet book. I never thought you were near 60 until I watched this video. Basically, we need to keep trying and moving forward, and not just sit back waiting to die like so many seniors do. I enjoyed the great ideas in this video, and although I've had many health issues, I will always try to do better. May the Lord bless you and yours, and I look forward to seeing you smile on the next video so I have to watch and learn from it and know why you're smiling.
Thank you, Craig!
This video is so inspiring. I’m making a plan to change my current status today. I’m 60 and I feel it. Thanks
Thank you. You got this!
I al 60 and I feel it too. But we got a plan and we’ll stick to it no matter what
I'm 60 and following a healthy keto life stylist. Lost 15 pounds already. Once I started following you I change to strengthen routines, and it is definitely working 👌 THANK YOU ❤ for all your educational advice. You are a book of knowledge, specifically for all of us getting to this point in our lives - fyi, I love being 60
Yes, combatting/overcoming the ROUTINE RUT- is a big deal! Fasting is also helpful. Health isn’t free after 40, GOTTA work for it.
Long history of fibro, then neurological symptoms, neuro attacks. optic nerve damage, hypothyroid and now hypertension :-(. Done it all to try and get better. Settled on anti-inflammatory diet, gf/df, exercise (walking/yoga). Yoga practice for 11 years to rehab from neuro events(all triggered by pharma, sun, vaccine). Also have cold uticaria and sun sensitive now, but no autoimmune diagnosis. Challenged with the hpertension since I'm so sensitive to meds. I also can no longer put weight on my wrists with wrists at 90 degrees. Ortho doc said arthritis likely in one and the other I fractured last summer while hiking and still painful. Fell this winter on daily walk on ice and tore meniscus. I can walk and hike now but can't fully straighten leg. Did PT. So tired of the self care when you keep going backwards in health. I'm 61. Health issues started around age 37. I think folks like us have to find balance with the exercise as I have limited energy. I've done supplements out the yazoo over the years and don't think that is the answer. Though I do take Co10, vitamin D, B complex for MTFHR, vitamin C, motherwort . Was taking carditone for high BP but it's no longer working. Help!
Hi, I am 65, happy to find your channel.
Would you please explain for women like my age how we can fix our eye vision and get rid of glasses that we need to have them on all the time when we get older.
You look so beautiful without glasses.
Thank you @asmaagetan3548 ! JJ has a podcast with Dr. Rudrani Banik, Board-certified Ophthalmologist, to provide her expertise on topics related to eye health.

I just found your videos and plan to listen to all of them. I will be 70 in a couple of days and it's really bothering me. I was suddenly widowed at 32 with 2 babies. I was a fitness instructor and 'health nut' and still am. I'm a lifelong vegetarian and so are my kids. My son owns a gym and coaches skiing. I was skiing bumps on June 1, '23 despite an old knee injury. Unfortunately, I have many old injuries as well as lyme disease. I never met a decent man again and I am getting so depressed. I am lonely and miss sharing my life. I know attitude plays a crucial part in health. I look much younger than my years and always have. My sleep is poor, anxiety high and I'm so tired. I am working on an attitude adjustment. Unless you're designed that way, being single sucks. I don't fit in and tired of trying. Anyway, I didn't mean to go on a rant. I think staying fit and eating well are easy. Being alone and lonely are not. Thank you for all your ideas. I'm always learning and teaching.
Thank you for sharing and Happy Birthday! Keep up the amazing work, Susan!
I'm 33 and I would love to look as good as you do. I'm taking note!
Thanks for your informative video. You look great and you seem to feel energetic. I plan to follow your lead and get back to the gym!
You got this! Thanks for watching :)
Aging is a privilege- great video. Thank u. I'm in my 40 trying all I can.
Thank you!
Do you take or recommend collagen peptides?
Yes, here is the collagen peptides that JJ uses and recommends - store.jjvirgin.com/products/all-systems-glow-collagen Cheers, Team JJ
Your skin looks beautiful -very natural makeup and also your arms! inspiring.
Oh thank you!
What is the brand of creatine that you take and other supplements?
Hi there, great question! Here is the Creatine that JJ uses and recommends - amzn.to/42imEra - Rachel at Team JJ
At 60, embracing new goals, wellness routines, and mindful fitness has made all the difference. Building muscle and maintaining a healthy mindset is crucial. Focus on consistency, self-care, and staying curious-your future self will thank you!
Im 52 and I feel better than ever !!!
Lovely skin tone. You look healthy.
Good to know as I approach 45! The only thing is alcohol really isn’t recommended anymore in any kind of health focused approach and Dr Amen for sure recommends zero alcohol as well as Dr Huberman who says there are really no benefits to wine. So I follow that advice and yours will be a great addition to add to my life, I already meditate, walk with my dog every day, and do yoga when I can.
Breast cancer research says alcohol is in fact carcinogenic, yikes
@@monicarose2135 yes, and alcohol hurts women the most because of the spike in estrogen and that leads to breast cancer. I’m so puzzled when my friends are sipping wine and talking about how many of their friends are getting breast cancer. Cognitive dissonance for sure.
I am with you, don’t like cardio and yoga. Turning 61 soon. Working on getting stronger too. Will add strength training … thank you! I just found this video 7/8/23.
Thank you for watching!
I found this video so interesting, especially the chat about mitochondria. I have mitochondrial disease, there is no cure for it but the hospital have given me Q10 to help with the muscle aches. I’m 51 and I’ve found since I’ve got into my 50’s mito is really causing me issues. I’ve had a few falls and am really suffering with pain and weakness. Thank you for such a great video and I have subscribed ❤
Thank you!
I have a question regarding Creatine- what is the difference between monohydrate and micronized creatine? My son gave me a micronize creatine but I wonder if it has different effects.
I’m starting this journey as well. Who do I want to spend my time with and how do I want to live out my third stage.
I'm 43. I found you yesterday on some podcast. You were the guest. And I'm so glad I did! I've been binge listening to your videos since then. Very informative videos. You motivated me to go back to the gym and build more muscle, so thank you!! ❤
Thank you! I so appreciate you being here!
You do look 10 years younger, being fit and having beautiful hair like you do helps. So many of us end up with thin hair, bald women don’t look young 🤦🏼♀️
wear a wig...soo many natural looking lace wigs. Every woman over 60 shud have a wig. Black women start wearing wigs and weaves at 16. Don't know why you all shy away from them and walk around with bald spots and alopecia. Lace wigs you can shampoo with and not take off for a fortnight until you go to your hair dresser and she'll do it for you along with a nice scalp cleansing and shampoo and then put it back on. Like live a little.
Not true. My cousin is so lovely. She’s 59, very thin hair but her natural blonde color. She’s very fit and lean and has beautiful teeth, and she looks to be more around age 50 versus almost 60.
Finding the right hair style for thin hair is more important versus just the thickness 😁
Hormone imbalance doesn't help. At the meantime I've started using Nutrafol and Vegamour. Just after a couple of days, I noticed that my hair has stopped falling. Give it a try!
@@dellson8274great advice! Been considering this. There’s a weird stigma attached to wigs for us I think.
@@cjhoward409still fully blond at that age? Most are gray
I just discovered you... hooray! Thank you for all this beautiful information for sharing all your wisdom with us. Can you give a few recommendations for which scale to buy to measure body composition there are a lot of them out there and I'd love to get one on your recommendation.
Yay, welcome aboard! For body composition scale, I highly recommend this: amzn.to/3IzidAc
I love your content! I turned 60 and I did a mini marathon as a gift to myself!!
Love it!
Loved this video. What brand of geranylgeranial do you take? I take Creatine and find it is making a difference in the gym. I am 63 and have decided to embrace retirement by taking the next 2 months to focus on me. I plan to lose these extra pounds I have put on, do more cardio , do more stretching and continue to focus on heavy lifting.
You are inspirational !
Thank you!
Love your videos, totally hooked! I have a dry sauna also, love it. Mine goes up to 140*, I go in for 1.5 hr up to 2 hours. It really drains the toxins. How long do go in the sauna?
I've been studying health and nutrition for decades and many have always thought I was younger than I am but I have certainly felt a decline over the last few years due to loss of friends and family members, esp. my younger brother, parents and most recently my husband of 40 yrs (sudden and unexpected)...so, at 71, I am needing a shift in selfcare and will implement some of these strategies but your routine is expensive and time-consuming as I try to maintain our ranch in California. Sadly, this is unrealistic and out of reach for most of us.
By maintaining a ranch you are probably already doing all of this anyway!
Yes you need leisure time and money to do a lot of things.
I am so sorry for your losses 💗🙏
A ranch in cali sounds amazing ! If you ever want to talk to a random British woman in her 30’s - let me know 🥰
I just discovered you site and feel lost, I am 77 with some previous back and shoulder surgeries and wonder what you could suggest I concentrate on. I take basic supplements, and have difficulty walking because of back issues. I really miss personal training but discovered when I try it sets me back. Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.😢
Look up senior yin yoga, yin yoga strengthens the tendons and ligaments. Just go super slow and be very mindful. You could also try chair sitting yoga. Swimming and water aerobics, stretching. Build incrementally and even if you do 5 mins of stretching and 5 mins of calisthenics. Hope this helps, you got this!!
Wonderful must work you look great worked in sun a lot like most guys
I lost weight and do strength training . My nervous system is shot to pieces . My husband has ADHD and depression . So it is hard to deal with him . I can’t drink alcohol and I had severe menopause symptoms . I am trying to help myself . I eat mainly clean foods . I also suffered fibromyalgia and I do a lot of walking so I don’t end up getting worse . I am 60 years old and can’t find a job because of my age . When I feel stressed , I do meditation . I want to improve myself even more .
Love your content JJ! I am really interested in making sure I can build muscle as I recently found out I am subclinical hypothyroid 😥 I've always wondered why putting on muscle seems to be so much easier for other people and now I know! But now you also armed me with supplements to fight back with!
Thank you, Melissa! and you got this! 💪
It all sounds like sound advice! Are you able to provide the sources of the info re supplements though. There are sooooo many out there - I like to read the scientific studies and assess how good the empirical evidence is.
I live on 3rd fl. - go up and down stairs. Actually, carry your loads. Walk fast and drop the car. Always have eaten well. Grew up with this mindset. Just live and view your activities as a workout. Instead of calcuting your every move.
Thank you for sharing.
Love ya JJ, shared you with my sister, now she loves ya too!!!❤❤❤
Oh thank you! Glad you're here!
What self improvement books do u recommend?
I'm so happy to find your channel. You're a few years older than me, so I'm going to take you as a role model. I agree on the importance of sleep. I'm glad you focus so much on nutrition. I'm good at doing light yoga every day because I ache if I don't. I need to get discipline with using my weights to build strength. Thanks for the inspiration.
I am so glad I came across this video!
I’m 71 nobody can believe me ! I’ve exercised since 27 , eating well , tons of vitamins, I never go to regular doctors! Natural path doctor all the way ~ and faith in God 🙏🏻
Awesome! Thank you for watching.
Great tips thank you for sharing ❤
Thanks for watching!
You inspire me❤ I’m addicted to sugar. I’ve tried to wean off but it’s difficult at 58 ❤ Thank you for sharing your fitness journey.
Thank you for watching, Kim!
I did Tony Robbins the edge to get off of sugar...and that helped me. I've been off of sugar for about three weeks. Sugar just absolutely devastated me so I really needed to get off and now I feel amazing.
Me too
What pound walking vest would you recommend? I’m very fit. I do kettlebell workouts 3 days a week and walk 3 miles most days.
Great advice, which supplement do you recommend to gain muscle mass, maintain weight. At 55 I'm still very active increasing weights for strength training, thank you, glad I found your channel. Blessings.
I ditched alcohol period I became actually a functioning alcoholic. I started to look at why I need something to artificially change my mood.
I'm exercising again and lost nearly 20lbs so far. I got about 50 to go since I completely let myself go. But onward an upward from here. I am 58 and do not want to live like most Americans who are lethargic and obese. I cringe when I go to the grocery store they have display after display of cakes and cookies and donuts out in front and sugar is pushed like cocaine in my opinion its disgusting. Thank you
Keep up the amazing work!
Correct! Eat food as grown.
I gave up alcohol this year too. I'm 40 and didn't want to spend another decade dealing with all the negatives that come with alcohol
Such great content!! Thank you!! I love your videos. I’m now 54 and find all that you say so relatable and extremely helpful. ❤
Thank you!!
What brand of creative do you recommend? I do prefer clean/organic ingredients and I thinking that’s what you are using. Great video and info… I’m 55 and still have people thinking I am 40 to 45. I’d like to keep it that way… ha!
Thank you for all of the inspo and guidelines. My mindset made a big leap after I found Joe Dispenza's books, and started practicing what he teaches. Now I'm entering a new season, my daughters graduated college in May, and are moving, so I'll be an empty nester and focusing solely on myself for the first time in 38 years. You are such an inspiration, and I'm looking forward to saying, "My body totally changed after finding JJ Virgin's books/channel." 😍💗
HIS BOOKS ARE NEW AGE STUFF.....TOTALLY ANTI CHRISTIAN AND ANTI SCIENCE......THEY HAVE PART OF TRUTH BUT THE REST IS ALL LIES....DONT GO DOWN THAT HOLE.....LOOK FOR CONVERSION STORIES FROM NEQ AGE TO JESUS.....THE SPIRITUAL BATTLE THEY FACE FOR OPENING DOORS TO THE ENEMY WITH NEW AGE IS TREMENDOUS!!!....IM CATHOLIC AND JESUSCHRIST HAS SAVED AND TRANSFORMED MY LIFE IN EVERY SINGLE WAY....DO NOT FALL FOR THE ENEMYS CULTS PLEASE NO MATTER HOW ATTRACTIVE THEY SEEM!
Hi Mirna, I haven't changed my personality per se, but yes, I do think and feel differently to a measurable degree. I've definitely made a big shift in my overall mindset, feel a stronger sense of peace, and gotten closer to our Creator on a higher level. I'm more 'tuned in' to being aware that our Creator's energy makes up every living thing around me, including myself. Now when I think of ministers that have advised, "We need to rise higher", "Go to the next level", "Rise above adversity" I see that more literally. I try to stay in that state of being consciously aware of being aware as much as possible.@@mirna-garcia
Question - I’m interested in rucking. What vest do you use? And how heavy? Thank you.
You look fabulous JJ. I’m 70 and when engaged in casual conversation with strangers and age comes into focus they stop short of accusing me of not telling the truth as they usually guess my age at 50. That said I could stand to lose 5 lbs. I cheat by heritage 😀olive skin and not a single wrinkle, in my mind I LIKE to think of myself with my 25 inch waist I had for most of my life - yes I’m stuck but to your point positive thinking. I refuse to buy larger size clothes. Have always worked out and love your videos and advice. ❤️
A bit of modesty goes a long way, just saying
Thanks so much for this video!
LOOKING good for your age! I'm the same age and I think i look pretty damn good. You have to take care of yourself and that's a big job. It can be done!
If you find "regular" yoga and doing cardio a bore, you should really give Kundalini yoga a try. It's definitely a challenge and it's a very different kind of yoga. Kundalini Yoga with Gurmukh is one of my favorites and bonus it's here on youtube.
Thank you for such an informative video :) I'm only 35 but I've randomly become terrified of ageing this year (before these negative thoughts popped into my mind I always felt like a youthful teenager!) seeing women like yourself thriving with every birthday makes me feel less fearful and nervous about the future.
35 quickly Morrison to 55 if I were you I would start taking her advice right now so it won't be as much of a hurdle in 10 years
You are amazing! So happy to see this! Dr. Joe is amazing
!
Thank you!
You look very healthy and great good for your age. I think people have gotten too accustomed to people with facelifts so much Botox and fillers that they don’t actually know what a more mature woman looks like and how skin and body ages naturally.
Thank you.
I wish I had this energy. I’ve been anemic for 8 years following a c section and have deep fatigue. Heavy periods. I’m so slim. I think I have low stomach acid due to high stress. I eat so well and do all the right things but don’t gain weight and have hardly any energy. Few skin issues. I want to do so much with exercise but as a mum of 3 running my own business - I can’t. I’m sad about it. I envy you JJ. I feel stuck. I try so hard and have been learning about natural health for years now. I’m not having a good quality of life. 😢
