I am so touched by your videos and advice. I enjoy listening to you. Keep spreading your wings. I am glad I am part of this fantastic community. Lots of love to you and to everyone ❤
Hi Sandra, your “Let Them” theory is really working for me, especially with my grown children and grandchildren children. Every time I thought about telling them what I think they should do, I could hear your words “let them”. 🤣 Thanks! God bless you!
1. Mind body connection 2. Positive mindset 3. Don't sweat the small stuff 4. Muscle work - strengthen them. 5. Balance training 6. Keep moving - walk...exercise 7. Time with family - socialize 8. Be adventurous - go out of your comfort zone 9. Give valuables now to the people you love. 10. No guilt self care - pamper yourself 11. Get annual medical check-ups 12. Healthy diet, supplements and sunscreen
This is how my husband and I feel, we are both in our 80s and we feel young inside and it shows on the outside. We take care of our home on our own, cooking cleaning and the gardening. We walk 3 miles every day and all this keeps us young looking and feeling alive. It’s so true Sandra, to socialize, even if it’s to talk to neighbors on walks.
I think it is every person's responsibility to take as good a care of themselves as possible. You can think and feel young, but the body is going to do what it's going to do as the operational systems begin to age. Why pursue a lifestyle that hastens the process? I think it boils down to quality of life. I don't want to do anything that could possibly diminish the best life I am supposed to be living. I'm a big believer in eating cleanly, living simply, and doing as much of the physical work as I can to take care of my body and my physical surroundings.
Maybe they don’t have any children. But my parents are the same age and they are the same. They pay for regular lawn care and car care but they do everything else themselves. They go out every week: they go out to eat lunch by the beach and then get takeout for dinner and almost every week they also go out dancing. Many years ago I told them that it would be nice if they moved in but they were not interested and are still not interested. When driving becomes an issue, I’m sure things will change.
Love that your ‘anti-aging’ tips aren’t focused on how we look, but on how we live and what we can do to have a long, healthy, active life. You are a ‘pro-aging’ beacon of light. ❤️
Hi from Annie, you are wonderful ans such and inspiration to me and others thank you for that , I do try to be more like you and have a good attitude to life, I often think about what you say and remind myself of it, you give very good advice and I am trying to follow it the best I can and I try to be better each day. I am making more time to take better care of myself like you say in this video all these things that are so very important and we all need to do them, so thank you and take care god bless.
@@livingdoll3445Hi Annie from New England! Wanted to give you a thumbs up 👍 for all your efforts! Please continue! I too am trying and find SO much wisdom and encouragement from our community! ❤
I’m 39 and I am trying to learn from real women offering real life advice. Thank you Sandra. Your channel is excellent. I will make sure my daughter who is 13 listens along with me.
I love this video! "I'm ONLY 72 years old." That's what I say if some one asks my age. I'm a widow for 5 years. I feel strong and healthy, I'm a 7 year breast cancer survivor. I feel blessed. I have a grandson on the way in 3 months. I have to stay strong for him. I live with my daughter and son in law. I have a dog and a cat. I try VERY hard not to stress myself too much both physically and mentality. I want to live to 99! That's my goal. I keep busy with reading and writing. I'm about to vacuum my apartment and walk to the trash dumpster! I keep moving and try to stay active.
I love you , wonderful person I’m probably never going to meet in this realm!! You’re amazing and I wish you and your family all the best. ~ sincerely, Lizzie😇
Thank you Sandra, you ate sensitive but strong. I have cancer for the third time. I am 75 but feel 45. Have 7 rescue dogs and 2 cats. Love them so much and fel distressed now. Everyone is being so kind but fel accident prone and want to cry. Must loo after my pets they are all rescues. Live by the coast, southern England. You cheer me up a lot, so grateful, God bless you
I'm 23 and sometimes i feel lost and worry alot and i'm glad i found your channel i consider you as my grandma (because all of mine passed away by the time I reached 6 years old) and really love listening to your advices so thank you so much for uploading videos like this 😊😊💗💗💗
So heart felt and touching to hear a young woman express herself in this manner. Sandra you have been an inspiration to some 450 thousand people or they would not have subscribed to your channel. Keep the love coming...
Feeling lost and worrying at your age is normal. This too shall pass. Everything will work out OK. You seem like a smart girl to be watching an elder for advice. Keep up in the good work.
You are like the grandma I never had. I cried watching this video. It spoke to my heart. Im 32 and I felt like that I've been stuck in life, not having the motivation to work out or anything but not anymore. Thank you so much for blessing my life with your presence! Thank you and I love you! 🥰💖💖💖
Sandra, I hope you never forget how much you mean to so many people. You have helped me so many times. Your sweet, caring nature is priceless. I hope you have a wonderful day! ❤
BRAVO!!! (1)We get and we become what we focus on. (2) Worry is like rocking in a rocking chair. It gives us something to do, but it doesn't get us anywhere. (3) Muscles... Use them or lose them. (4) Stay connected. (Thank you, Arthur) (5) Escape from our Comfort Zone. (6) Be generous with our treasures. (7) Practice what we preach. Take care of ourselves too. Got it... Thank your, Sandra. Enjoy your Travels!
Just want to say “I love you” ! ❤ You are such an inspiration to me. I’m 63 and have lived in a rural area for the last 25 yrs. I spent many yrs isolated here when I was sick with RA . I now work but past 4 yrs I’m really the only one in the office, I decided back in 2018 I was going to move to The Villages so I could be around people and have things to do. Well that’s finally happening. We are selling our property and moving to Florida this fall. I am finally going to put my physical and mental health first. My husband is not interested in staying healthy so I decided to let him to him and I do me. I cannot change or fix him but I can take care of myself. That’s one message I would like to put out there. You have to decide to put yourself first! No one else will do it. ❤❤Thank you for all your wisdom
I so agree about the husband thing. I also watch the Villages Newcomers Jerry and Linda....you are going in a happy direction I think. Seniors have a strong voice there.
Wow! Good for you. I am 62 and I just wrote to Sandra to ask if she feels more freedom and happiness now that she is alone. I too have lived in a very rural area with my husband for 23 years. I do not want to live in isolated anymore and he will not budge so I think I’m going to divorce him. But maybe that’s what I should Do too. Move away and let him here!!!
@@sharynm79 I got fortunate. I really did not think my husband would go but I think he realizes that we cannot take care of ourselves out here. We don’t have any children and after having to take care of my mom and her heath issues a lightbulb went off. I started watching TH-cam videos of the villages and decided that’s where I’m going with or without him. And I really would have. At this point in my life I want me time and I want fun friends and people to do things with. Go look up the villages new comers and pretty over 50. She just moved there. Please let me know how things go. Im routing for you!
@@sharynm79 If you decide to divorce, please don't mention it to your husband until you have consulted a lawyer and put a plan for your financial well-being in place. Please trust me on this: if you make idle threats thinking you will manipulate him into moving with you, he may outsmart you and make changes behind your back to protect "his" assets. Be ever so cautious. My best to you.
@@jeanetteh.9240 That happened to a friend of mine 10 yrs ago. The wife told the husband how unhappy she was, let's see a marriage counselor, etc., she wanted him to clear out some of the hoarding, go out a bit more do things together. Suddenly he started clearing out, being mr. nice guy, ok to put the house on the market. When the agent was hooking wife up with a real estate attorney, wife found out husband had moved ALL their money out of shared accounts and was preparing to divorce HER!
Dear Sandra, I'm 30 and already doing a lot of the things you recommend. Socializing, weightlifting and doing yoga regularly has done wonders for my health and I intend to continue doing those things into old age :)
Thank you sweet Sandra, I’m 80 yrs old and this video was so inspiring. I’m so proud of you! Your an inspiration to me. Your the reason I started my utube channel. You and Little Poet got me through the care of my husband with Alzeheimers. Then Covid on top of it! The big treat I looked forward to was seeing your lovely face on my TV. Thank you!
I Love every single Video of you! 1 am 40 , you Inspire me so Much to grow older !! When I was only 17 parents passed away in a car 🚙 crash , so I lost many many reasons to be Alive , all alone no Grandparents all deceased , so someone Like you Keeps me Alive !! Dear Sandra thanks a Million Times in every sense of the world, Love you always , Elaina ❤
This is all really good advise. I am 66 and I never say I'm old because I'm not! I remember being in my 40's and friends would talk about getting old, and aches and pains, and I thought, 'What are you talking about, we're not old, not even close!!!' You're right, it's all about your mindset! As a man(woman) thinks in his(her) heart, so is he (she)! Keep doing what you do Sandra! By the way you look absolutely beautiful!🌺
Sadly, my aches and pains have been diagnosed and are very real. But when I'm with my younger friends (some of them much younger), I make a concerted effort to not dwell on it. I don't hide it, I just don't go on and on. Personally, I find litanies too boring, but beyond that, I want to set a good example. Our culture tends to emphasize the value of youth, and I want to die knowing that I made aging less scary and depressing for those coming after me. It sounds like you are doing the same!
Thank you Sandra. I am in my early 50s and lost my mom to breast cancer when I was 9. I turn to your channel for life advice as I’m aging and as always, you’ve inspired me. Thank you once again for another great video and safe travels! ❤
I am still Sixteen years old, and this old woman gives me hope to live in this life, and makes me see life in a wonderful perspective, I really thank you for making this video for us💙💙..
Since I’ve been a widow ( 2015) after 51 years of marriage- you’ve been such an inspiration to me to go on and enjoy everyday - how to cherish what I’ve been given in life and how to look for the beauty positive things each new morning- being grateful for each new day and each new great- grandchild💞 Use my gifts and talents to bless others
Thanks again Sandra for the great ideas. I hope to continue to listen as you have given me such hope. God has blessed me so. Faith is so important. Love to all.
My sincere condolences on your loss. I, too, am a widow now - coming up on my first year milestone after the loss. We never forget those we have loved.
A special tip, give away valuables early. It is wonderful to see the joy in the faces of loved ones.Keep your butterfly wings. Thankyou for your encouragement.xx
Thank you ever so much for being here. I love what you do on your channel and it always makes me realize how important keeping our bodies moving is to our overall well- being. No matter how young or old we are. 💕
You are the most lovely eighty something. This is the first woman I get to see that she has nothing to do with her age. She's ageless. ❤❤❤ thanks for Inspiring us.
Hi Sandra my brother who used to be famous in the 60s has dementia.He has been involved in an accident and now I visit him in the hospital his bones have been broken.He can still chat and has a warm personality.He is 82 years.Time is a valuable thing that we mustn't waste as we get older as we never ever get it back !! Sandra
Thank you Sandra🌼 All tips resonate with me a lot. I'm a lazy person and don't like workouts, but I love to walk. And on hard days when I'm tired I give myself 10 min to lie on a bed and then force myself to go for a walk. And always always after walking, I feel much better than before
I agree with keeping a POSITIVE attitude is a key I use to stay a young 70 years old. I also have a motto” if I don’t try something new I’ll never know if I’ll like it or can do it “. Many times I’m amazed at the results and the esteem building new experiences bring me. I just learned to swim and overcame a life long fear of water… next is bungee classes at the local community center. I thank you for caring for yourself and sharing with us. Stay strong…. hugs from Arkansas.
My whole life, I have yearned for a role model. You have fulfilled this need in my life. As an adult everyone is acting as if they've "got it together" and as if they "get" life, but we all know deep down we all are a little lost and need guidance. So thank you for sharing❤
Good morning Sandra. Thank you so much for this video. I’m 68 years old. I’m really trying to stay positive. This video really helped me to try to get it together. Thank you so much and God bless you
Dear Sandra, I discovered you today and what a beautiful woman you are. Just your smile alone quickly makes me feel special about myself and my future. I am 64 and you can't imagine how much joy just listening to you has brought to my entire being. I am a positive-minded person and "meeting you" today is inspiring. You have made my day. Indeed in twenty years' time, I shall glow and be smiling like you. God bless you.❤❤❤
Flying/traveling alone was a challenge for me too Sandra. I agree with you about giving away our treasures to those we love. I have started doing that and it makes me happy to see them happy. You are the ☀️ of my life 🤗
I am 48 but I have subscribed to your channel because you are a great role model and source of encouragement for embracing and maximising what ever time God gives me to live well. I'm enduring time of suppression but I desire to live continuously in Christ with a strong positive spirit and you are such an encouragement. Thankyou
Missed you last week but glad you took a week off for yourself. Totally agree on having a positive attitude and also trying things even if you don't succeed. It builds character and a sense of accomplishment for trying. And we learn from our mistakes. Thank you for your terrific videos Sandra!
You are so right and I'm glad you are sharing. I was 50 by the time I realized that worry is not having faith and not living right now, in this moment. A few years later, I discovered that happiness is a choice -- it's not something you seek.
I'm not even in my 20's, but I'm already taking care of my physical and mental body, once I want to get older healthy. These tips showed me that I'm on the right way! Thank you for sharing this with us ♡
Dear Sandra thank you for your precious advices. I know that all you said is important for my health but sometimes I don,t feel like to do anything. The only thing that I do everyday is to walk with my little dog. Our thoughts sometimes are not very helpful, this is the worst part of our journey because they are very difficult to control. Thank you again it is always a pleasure to listen to you. 🙏❤️
You always cheer me up. Life is hard and you have had a hard time but you always see the bright side. Thank you for your advice and cheery attitude. God bless you and your family!!!
Growing up in the Balkans within a middle-class family, I never received guidance on how to align my life with the conventional wisdom, even though these principles were considered the norm. As a result, now in my early 30s and living independently, I am actively incorporating the positive advices gleaned from books and the internet. Discovering this channel has provided me with a newfound confidence, reaffirming that I don't have to conform to the patterns set by my family. Instead, I can strive to become a role model, embracing a strong mindset and physical well-being. Thank you Sandra for your time to share valuable thoughts. Alex
1. You are what you think. You set your own limits. You are the only one who can measure you. Your strengths your weaknesses. 2. Think positively. Keep a positive mindset. Mindset is everything. We are what we think and if we have a positive mindset and 99% of the time whatever we are struggling through we will get to the end of it in a positive way. If you worry about failing all the time you will stress yourself out some more. And if you do fail and always keep wondering what if we can never move forward. If you fail get up off your knee's and try again. the key to success is failure without quitting. 3. Don't sweat the small stuff. Worry is such a useless emotion it drains you of all energy and it is such a negative way to think about your life 4. Do muscle work. 5. Balance training as you age you lose balance you will fall 6. Excersice walk. 7. Socialize don't self isolate. Get an animal. 8. Switch it up. Get out of the rut you are in. 9. No guilt self care. Take care of your skin. Take care of your mind take care of your body. Take care of your hair
This morning we flipped on the tv TH-cam & you were featured in the line up with a big 84. I said” Oh there is my lady! She must be 84 now” He said, “She sure doesn’t look 84.” We’ll you must have had a birthday. I hope it was very happy & exciting! You are indeed a very good role model for how to live well & thrive through life’s ups & downs. Thanks for this & all of your heartfelt & wise & helpful talks. Love & Blessing, Carolyn
GO GIRL im behind you one year in age and I agree 100% I learned early in life A MERRY HEART IS A GOOD MEDICINE THANK YOU FOR YOUR VIDEOS POSITIVELY COVERS IT
I am 25 years old and I went through many ups and downs but after hearing your words you really bring the hope to me I really feel every word that you said in my life Thank you from the bottom of my heart I will sincerely follow your advices ❤❤
Sandra, your videos are so great that I am stopping in the middle of this one to tell you! 💗I follow all of your advice. Yesterday I went to have a facial and massage and the facial technician couldn’t believe that I am 70! I am a volunteer at a botanical garden and a tv extra!! 😊 Thank you!!
I appreciate all you say and do to encourage us. I'm 71 years young and I do feel young the majority of the time, but I have my days when I worry. But then I get over it. I'm in good health, but I need to exercise. So here I go. Thank you again, Sandra, for your encouraging words.❤❤❤ God bless.
Found your channel just recently and am binge watching....this specific episode resonated with me...esp after the pandemic, sitting on couch too much. I am doing water aerobics and hiking, & getting back in nature. Thank you for reaching out to others with your wise insight. -Elaine, a former Romper Room Watcher.
Perfect timing. I absolutely needed to hear this today. I really appreciate you addressing anti aging. It is amazing. I looked at myself in the mirror literally three hours before I was led to your video . I was on the cusp of going on the ‘thought ‘ merry go round of endless negativity . You are gorgeous btw . Definitely the one who would know. I’m so thankful . I’m about to turn 53 . It is going to be a great year now that I have a game plan. ❤ from Phoenix, Az
Good morning Sandra, welcome back. Thank you for your input. I am 56 and I think is a good idea to give away some things that we love but don't use anymore or that someone else would appreciate as much as we do. Is best not to accumulate, specially those personal treasures ❤
One of your BEST videos! So much helpful information & I sure needed to hear it & many others did, also. You are such a light!! I turned 70 in April. I exercise (walk 3 mi every morning M-F) take care of myself, & love being social but I need to step out of my comfort zone more! Thank you for this excellent video. You look beautiful, rested, & happy. Safe travels as you step out of your comfort zone & meet new ppl along the way.😊 You are such an amazing individual & I look forward to "visiting" with you every Tuesday. Thank you!
I am so impressed with your travel courage; and the New York debacle, I am sure that was miserable. I will be 70 Sunday and the number seems daunting. I haven’t traveled out of my area since before covid and have no desire to go anywhere; I have traveled to Europe/S America…over the years but nothing seems worth the risk now, especially as a senior as the public landscape is so unpredictable. I admire you travelers and puzzle at why I don’t have that wanderlust.
@Pseudopross Happy birthday Sunday!! I hated turning 70 but it's better than the alternative! :) I walk 3 miles every day M-F, eat healthy, & love meeting new ppl & being social.
Woundedul advice Sandra - everything starts with a positive mindset - line you I’ve lost precious time over worrying about things you simply can’t change - I’ve discovered weights and strength resistance training at 61 and I love it - I lift weights do Pilates and walk - there is an definite correlation btw feeling physically strong and good mental health as well as being able to move more easily - I’ve changed my diet focussing on protein good fats fruit salads and vegetables minimising processed fats and sugars (though i still have the occasional treat) have lost over 50 pounds another 30 to go - as my darling mother used to say life is for living - keep well we love you xx i have so much more travel I want to do. Sandra consider including K2 it enhances the absorption of Vitamin D and is beneficial in preventing blood clots as we age 100 mg per day. This is one of your very best videos x
worry is planning a future you don't want. when you realise you are not your thoughts but you control your thoughts and you have the ability to guard your mind from negativity. when I realised that i am creating my life with my thoughts i began to analyse every thought and affirm new thoughts of success beauty and wealth. You do become what you think about.
Thank you Miss Sandra for your channel, your presence, your positive energy, sharing your experience and optimism. You are sooo loving and compassionate and gracious! May you be blessed with good health, loving family, loving friends and joy🎉 Thank you, Sandra! ~kari on the West Coast of Canada ❤
Your advice is wonderful and so helpful to everyone. I go to Silver Sneakers three days per week which is helpful. Sometimes I don’t want to go, but if I think of the benefits and go I feel better. I’m 78 and have some balance issues so I need to focus on that. Another important thing is to watch our posture…stand straight and sit up straight. Nothing makes people look older is to be bent over when walking or sitting.
Dear beautiful Lady! You say things preatty banals for people like me working with patients BUT the way you explain ,the happy soul Who comes out from your glance, makes the difference. Congratulations
Thank you Sandra. Your words resonated with me, especially about attitude. I'm 73yo, my beloved husband died 12 yrs ago. I've worked thru the grief of his dying. Three years ago, I adopted Ziva, my beloved Corgi and recently she passed at 7yo due to cancer. We had five glorious weeks together from day of dX to death. I'm totally lost without her. Too soon to even think about another doggy. Ziva and I fit together so well, my companion. She was like velcro. I live alone and have not felt lonely until now. Trying to work thru the grief. So, I'll try to have a better attitude too and be thankful for the time we had together. It's difficult.
Thank you Sandra! You are beautiful ❤woman and have a good soul ! You are an inspiration, I just turned 52, and past 20 years doing just that what you shared ( except more weights) By nature Im loving life and teaches you how to be love and spread amongst people with my actions. First , kind words or patience, even to ignorant people , they do appreciate. Care for myself its such a treat and gives me energy for the next week . Need it to get out of my comfort zone cause son is grown will learn new habits , new practices . Reminder , where I place my attention thats succeed .During the pandemic Didn’t feel like eating red meat or alcohol for five months, then I finally made my dream come true, traveling to Paris and Florence, and of course, made a conscious decision to try everything good those countries offer. Then came back to my healthy life!! Be joyful and don't sweat the small stuff! Peace prosperity and dreams come true!! ✨
So much warmth and sunshine coming from you! I cannot get enough ❤ Thank you for sparkling your energy through the video! I’m 28 and sometimes i feel like i’m retired grumpy grandma, just complaining, feeling bad and thinking about what shoulda, woulda, coulda. Not living the life I have, but just wishing it was different. It’s not a pleasant feeling but it’s a huge progress I came to realizing that at least. You are an example how I want to grow - wise, calm, loving, grateful. Such a blessing to find you, i finally have an amazing example to follow! Thank you!!!
I woke up this morning with the words SELF CARE percolating in my ex now I know why! Thank you ,Sandra, for all the tips and reminders as to how to keep it going.💃 Also, I appreciate your sharing of the fact that you need to push yourself to stay social. I also am quite content with my own company, yet your point is so true that it's important to have interaction with others. I applaud you for reminding yourself to do what Arthur had prompted you to do. That's the whole beautiful message of this vid, for me, anyway. Keep moving forward while practicing self care and self love🥰 challenge yourself. MOVE! LIVE! LOVE! Thank you for consistently shining your light and encouragement by example. YOU. ARE. A. PEACH!!🍑🩷🧡💛
Thank you. I'm 57 . I just gave my daughters 24 & 26 Some of my precious things. I wanted to see them enjoy them while I'm still here. My dad's from traverse city, mi. He met my mom in Pgh, pa. And stayed. Our family vacations were a blast visiting our relatives. My cousin's were here last year for my mom's 80's b day. They really enjoyed our city and suburb. I just introduced my mom to your channel. You're really helping her. We lost my dad to parkinson's 5 years ago. She loves your channel just as much as I do. Thanks again. 🩷🫶🙏🌷☯️🌟
Hi Sandra, Your advice is so spot on, and I need to put it into action. It’s so easy to get into a rut, and so hard to getting out of it. One thing I do need in my life that would help, would to be living closer to my family. We live across the country from them. As I get older, it really has changed my mind set, and not in a good way. Never take your family for granted, and try to stay close with them if you can. Have safe & fun travels on your upcoming trips ! 💜💜
Hi Sandra l thought the anti ageing video was amazing. I can relate to a lot you talked about mostly due to a life changing event. I was diagnosed with colon cancer at 52 and survived it luckily. It changed my whole perspective on life . I retired from a stressful business and now at 61 l when back to my younger hobbies . I had not horse ridden for 40 yrs and decided to buy a beautiful palomino horse which l ride and enjoy showing him . I now treasure the simple things in life a lot more so for me l hope to keep positive and l am now grateful for the time l have to enjoy life. ❤ xx
Hi Sandra beautiful video, you are always on point, taking care of ourselves, having good positive attitude, loving ourself and each other is a great way to live a wonderful life,also to be very grateful for the God given life. Keep moving, learning and socializing really lift the spirit, may God continue to bless and keep you safe in all your travels, much love to you,you're an inspiration to many people, thank you.❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love you, Sandra!♥️♥️ Yes, physical movement like walking is really important. I introduced walking for about an hour in my almost daily routine. I can tell the difference. Yes, it eliberates endorphines and I feel so good✨ I try to keep myself active both physical and mental since I’m going through a difficult period of time right now..I noticed that keeping feeling lost and sad does me NO good, you reminded me of that, thank you so much♥️🤗
So happy to hear you are going to beautiful Traverse City to visit your brother!! You know I am shaking my head in agreement, Sandra!! Love you, my friend...MaryEllen
God bless you Sandra! Very smart approach to anti-aging tips. Love the way you go through life and your decision to help others. Your video are full of marvelous things the details of sharing what you look and enjoy around teaches about your soul helping to live better. Dear Sandra you are making our life better and enchanted. Thank you to be there for us.
Thank you for reinforcing my own thoughts being active, after I had covid twice I kind of slowed down and lack of energy , and I decided no one is coming knocking on my door it's up to me to make it happen, so I joined the YMCA and I'm so glad I did, it not only helped me physically but mentally as well, thank you Sandra for reminding me the work we put into it is so well worth it
@@jeanetteh.9240 is $60 a month if you know anyone that goes there and it's a referral you get 20% of which is $48 regular gym's are much cheaper but as an older person you kind of feel out of place , it's well worth it
Walking was drilled into me when I was young by my mom, "Above all, do not lose your desire to walk. Everyday I walk myself into a state of well being and walk away from every illness,. I have walked myself into my best thoughts and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it. But by sitting still, and the more one sits still, the closer one comes to feeling ill...if one keeps on walking everything will be alright." Soren Kierkergaard. My mom lived to 90 in her home taking care of herself. She died in her home, sat down in her arm chair and floated off to heaven. And yes, walking with a four legged companion is that much better.
I find it incredible how so many 50 and 60 year olds won’t use computers or phones to do everyday things (like register for accounts, create logins, and genera tasks using an internet program), while Sandra here, at 84, has social media accounts and posts well-produced, we’ll-edited TH-cam videos….another example of what it means to stay young! Never stop learning and growing.
Hi Sandra Your positivity is so important and inspiring. At age 72 I find myself in the weird place of reflecting so much on all the past chapters of my life and being acutely aware that time is not spread out in front of me like it used to be. Should I even buy new clothes? Now I truly understand why my grandmother traveled in her older years as much as she did after her husband passed- it gave her forward motion and purpose. Safe travels and your channel is a treasure you have been giving to us❤
I am so touched reading all of your comments here!! Thanks ever so much!! Sandra 💕
I am so touched by your videos and advice. I enjoy listening to you. Keep spreading your wings. I am glad I am part of this fantastic community. Lots of love to you and to everyone ❤

Learning a lot from her!!! ❤
This is how my husband and I feel, we are both in our 80s and we feel young inside and it shows on the outside. We take care of our home on our own, cooking cleaning and the gardening. We walk 3 miles every day and all this keeps us young looking and feeling alive. It’s so true Sandra, to socialize, even if it’s to talk to neighbors on walks.
Yes. Taking care of my home and myself keeps me very active♥️🙏🏼
Where are your children / devils to care for you???
I think it is every person's responsibility to take as good a care of themselves as possible. You can think and feel young, but the body is going to do what it's going to do as the operational systems begin to age. Why pursue a lifestyle that hastens the process? I think it boils down to quality of life. I don't want to do anything that could possibly diminish the best life I am supposed to be living. I'm a big believer in eating cleanly, living simply, and doing as much of the physical work as I can to take care of my body and my physical surroundings.
Maybe they don’t have any children. But my parents are the same age and they are the same. They pay for regular lawn care and car care but they do everything else themselves. They go out every week: they go out to eat lunch by the beach and then get takeout for dinner and almost every week they also go out dancing. Many years ago I told them that it would be nice if they moved in but they were not interested and are still not interested. When driving becomes an issue, I’m sure things will change.
Lovely post. ❤❤
Love that your ‘anti-aging’ tips aren’t focused on how we look, but on how we live and what we can do to have a long, healthy, active life. You are a ‘pro-aging’ beacon of light. ❤️
Yes! She is truly amazing
Thank you so much.
Hi from Annie, you are wonderful ans such and inspiration to me and others thank you for that , I do try to be more like you and have a good attitude to life, I often think about what you say and remind myself of it, you give very good advice and I am trying to follow it the best I can and I try to be better each day. I am making more time to take better care of myself like you say in this video all these things that are so very important and we all need to do them, so thank you and take care god bless.
@@livingdoll3445Hi Annie from New England! Wanted to give you a thumbs up 👍 for all your efforts! Please continue! I too am trying and find SO much wisdom and encouragement from our community! ❤
You are amazing! You inspire me every time I listen to you!
I’m 39 and I am trying to learn from real women offering real life advice.
Thank you Sandra. Your channel is excellent. I will make sure my daughter who is 13 listens along with me.
I love this video!
"I'm ONLY 72 years old." That's what I say if some one asks my age. I'm a widow for 5 years. I feel strong and healthy, I'm a 7 year breast cancer survivor. I feel blessed. I have a grandson on the way in 3 months. I have to stay strong for him. I live with my daughter and son in law. I have a dog and a cat. I try VERY hard not to stress myself too much both physically and mentality. I want to live to 99! That's my goal.
I keep busy with reading and writing. I'm about to vacuum my apartment and walk to the trash dumpster! I keep moving and try to stay active.
I love you , wonderful person I’m probably never going to meet in this realm!! You’re amazing and I wish you and your family all the best.
~ sincerely, Lizzie😇
Wow!
Long live you Queen ❤️🔥
Hi i want to have friends can we?
How is it living with your daughter and son in law?
Thank you Sandra, you ate sensitive but strong. I have cancer for the third time. I am 75 but feel 45. Have 7 rescue dogs and 2 cats. Love them so much and fel distressed now. Everyone is being so kind but fel accident prone and want to cry. Must loo after my pets they are all rescues. Live by the coast, southern England. You cheer me up a lot, so grateful, God bless you
May God Bless you as well Susanna Rogers and may He meet you at the point of your every need in the name of Jesus Christ
I'm 23 and sometimes i feel lost and worry alot and i'm glad i found your channel i consider you as my grandma (because all of mine passed away by the time I reached 6 years old) and really love listening to your advices so thank you so much for uploading videos like this 😊😊💗💗💗
Thank you for your kindness
So heart felt and touching to hear a young woman express herself in this manner. Sandra you have been an inspiration to some 450 thousand people or they would not have subscribed to your channel. Keep the love coming...
@@lifewithsandrahart you're very welcome
@@johnboy6594 indeed she is very inspiring
Feeling lost and worrying at your age is normal. This too shall pass. Everything will work out OK. You seem like a smart girl to be watching an elder for advice. Keep up in the good work.
You are like the grandma I never had. I cried watching this video. It spoke to my heart. Im 32 and I felt like that I've been stuck in life, not having the motivation to work out or anything but not anymore. Thank you so much for blessing my life with your presence! Thank you and I love you! 🥰💖💖💖
Sandra, I hope you never forget how much you mean to so many people. You have helped me so many times. Your sweet, caring nature is priceless. I hope you have a wonderful day! ❤
Amen ❤ very very tru. Thanx fo saying it loud
I try. Thank you very much.
You look great thanx❤
❤❤❤❤
BRAVO!!! (1)We get and we become what we focus on. (2) Worry is like rocking in a rocking chair. It gives us something to do, but it doesn't get us anywhere. (3) Muscles... Use them or lose them. (4) Stay connected. (Thank you, Arthur) (5) Escape from our Comfort Zone. (6) Be generous with our treasures. (7) Practice what we preach. Take care of ourselves too. Got it... Thank your, Sandra. Enjoy your Travels!
Hello Carole
Just want to say “I love you” ! ❤ You are such an inspiration to me. I’m 63 and have lived in a rural area for the last 25 yrs. I spent many yrs isolated here when I was sick with RA . I now work but past 4 yrs I’m really the only one in the office, I decided back in 2018 I was going to move to The Villages so I could be around people and have things to do. Well that’s finally happening. We are selling our property and moving to Florida this fall. I am finally going to put my physical and mental health first. My husband is not interested in staying healthy so I decided to let him to him and I do me. I cannot change or fix him but I can take care of myself. That’s one message I would like to put out there. You have to decide to put yourself first! No one else will do it. ❤❤Thank you for all your wisdom
I so agree about the husband thing. I also watch the Villages Newcomers Jerry and Linda....you are going in a happy direction I think. Seniors have a strong voice there.
Wow! Good for you. I am 62 and I just wrote to Sandra to ask if she feels more freedom and happiness now that she is alone. I too have lived in a very rural area with my husband for 23 years. I do not want to live in isolated anymore and he will not budge so I think I’m going to divorce him. But maybe that’s what I should
Do too. Move away and let him here!!!
@@sharynm79 I got fortunate. I really did not think my husband would go but I think he realizes that we cannot take care of ourselves out here. We don’t have any children and after having to take care of my mom and her heath issues a lightbulb went off. I started watching TH-cam videos of the villages and decided that’s where I’m going with or without him. And I really would have. At this point in my life I want me time and I want fun friends and people to do things with. Go look up the villages new comers and pretty over 50. She just moved there. Please let me know how things go. Im routing for you!
@@sharynm79 If you decide to divorce, please don't mention it to your husband until you have consulted a lawyer and put a plan for your financial well-being in place. Please trust me on this: if you make idle threats thinking you will manipulate him into moving with you, he may outsmart you and make changes behind your back to protect "his" assets. Be ever so cautious. My best to you.
@@jeanetteh.9240 That happened to a friend of mine 10 yrs ago. The wife told the husband how unhappy she was, let's see a marriage counselor, etc., she wanted him to clear out some of the hoarding, go out a bit more do things together. Suddenly he started clearing out, being mr. nice guy, ok to put the house on the market. When the agent was hooking wife up with a real estate attorney, wife found out husband had moved ALL their money out of shared accounts and was preparing to divorce HER!
Dear Sandra, I'm 30 and already doing a lot of the things you recommend. Socializing, weightlifting and doing yoga regularly has done wonders for my health and I intend to continue doing those things into old age :)
Thank you sweet Sandra, I’m 80 yrs old and this video was so inspiring. I’m so proud of you! Your an inspiration to me. Your the reason I started my utube channel. You and Little Poet got me through the care of my husband with Alzeheimers. Then Covid on top of it! The big treat I looked forward to was seeing your lovely face on my TV. Thank you!
Hello sandra brown
How are you doing today?
Hello Sandra
@@ElouiseHam-kv9lf Fine thank you!
@@julsLuis Hello there!
I Love every single Video of you! 1 am 40 , you Inspire me so Much to grow older !! When I was only 17 parents passed away in a car 🚙 crash , so I lost many many reasons to be Alive , all alone no Grandparents all deceased , so someone Like you Keeps me Alive !! Dear Sandra thanks a Million Times in every sense of the world, Love you always , Elaina ❤
Sorry for your loss, it must have been awful, sending prayers and lots of love ❤️ ❤
So sorry for your loss. ❤❤
Thank you 🙏🏻 so much for your kindness and prayers , love Eliana 🙏🏻💗
This is all really good advise.
I am 66 and I never say I'm old because I'm not! I remember being in my 40's and friends would talk about getting old, and aches and pains, and I thought, 'What are you talking about, we're not old, not even close!!!'
You're right, it's all about your mindset!
As a man(woman) thinks in his(her) heart, so is he (she)!
Keep doing what you do Sandra!
By the way you look absolutely beautiful!🌺
Sadly, my aches and pains have been diagnosed and are very real. But when I'm with my younger friends (some of them much younger), I make a concerted effort to not dwell on it. I don't hide it, I just don't go on and on. Personally, I find litanies too boring, but beyond that, I want to set a good example. Our culture tends to emphasize the value of youth, and I want to die knowing that I made aging less scary and depressing for those coming after me. It sounds like you are doing the same!
Sending Love ❤️...@meditationgodsway...Are you single? ❤️🌹🌹
Thank you Sandra. I am in my early 50s and lost my mom to breast cancer when I was 9. I turn to your channel for life advice as I’m aging and as always, you’ve inspired me. Thank you once again for another great video and safe travels! ❤
Much better eyebrows now congrats
More natural looking
Thank you for the update on ice your advice on aging gracefully
I’m sorry you lost your mom at such a young age🥺
I lost my mum at 13 and lost out to a lot of things😢
I am still Sixteen years old, and this old woman gives me hope to live in this life, and makes me see life in a wonderful perspective, I really thank you for making this video for us💙💙..
Since I’ve been a widow ( 2015) after 51 years of marriage- you’ve been such an inspiration to me to go on and enjoy everyday - how to cherish what I’ve been given in life and how to look for the beauty positive things each new morning- being grateful for each new day and each new great- grandchild💞
Use my gifts and talents to bless others
Thanks again Sandra for the great ideas. I hope to continue to listen as you have given me such hope. God has blessed me so. Faith is so important. Love to all.
Hello beautiful
My sincere condolences on your loss. I, too, am a widow now - coming up on my first year milestone after the loss. We never forget those we have loved.
A special tip, give away valuables early. It is wonderful to see the joy in the faces of loved ones.Keep your butterfly wings. Thankyou for your encouragement.xx
Sandra, you are a delight to watch! Thanks for sharing your wisdom 🙏❤️
I am following u too. Nice to see u here 😅
Thank you ever so much for being here. I love what you do on your channel and it always makes me realize how important keeping our bodies moving is to our overall well- being. No matter how young or old we are. 💕
Quite cool indeed!♡

You are the most lovely eighty something. This is the first woman I get to see that she has nothing to do with her age. She's ageless. ❤❤❤ thanks for Inspiring us.
Hi Sandra my brother who used to be famous in the 60s has dementia.He has been involved in an accident and now I visit him in the hospital his bones have been broken.He can still chat and has a warm personality.He is 82 years.Time is a valuable thing that we mustn't waste as we get older as we never ever get it back !! Sandra
I am 23 and I love your advice! It feels like you are the family member I always wanted but never had ❤
Thank you Sandra🌼
All tips resonate with me a lot.
I'm a lazy person and don't like workouts, but I love to walk. And on hard days when I'm tired I give myself 10 min to lie on a bed and then force myself to go for a walk. And always always after walking, I feel much better than before
Don’t call yourself names “A lazy person”. Reframe it to say I am adding more movement every day. Keep up the good work!
Hello marina
Hi Juls🙂
@@marinavantukh1436How are you doing hope you're good
You don’t sound lazy to me.
Sandra you are wonderful! THANK YOU! I’m only 17 years old and I love to watch your videos. There is a divine wisdom in them.
I agree with keeping a POSITIVE attitude is a key I use to stay a young 70 years old.
I also have a motto” if I don’t try something new I’ll never know if I’ll like it or can do it “. Many times I’m amazed at the results and the esteem building new experiences bring me.
I just learned to swim and overcame a life long fear of water… next is bungee classes at the local community center.
I thank you for caring for yourself and sharing with us.
Stay strong…. hugs from Arkansas.
Hello Peggy
Sending Love ❤️...Peggy...Are you single? ❤️🌹🌹
My whole life, I have yearned for a role model. You have fulfilled this need in my life. As an adult everyone is acting as if they've "got it together" and as if they "get" life, but we all know deep down we all are a little lost and need guidance. So thank you for sharing❤
Good morning Sandra. Thank you so much for this video. I’m 68 years old. I’m really trying to stay positive. This video really helped me to try to get it together. Thank you so much and God bless you
You have got this! You are very welcome!
Sandra...you are an absolute treasure! Love your positivity! Blessings to you!
I’ve learned to pic my battles very carefully life is to short ! Praise God 🙏🏻
Dear Sandra,
I discovered you today and what a beautiful woman you are. Just your smile alone quickly makes me feel special about myself and my future. I am 64 and you can't imagine how much joy just listening to you has brought to my entire being. I am a positive-minded person and "meeting you" today is inspiring. You have made my day. Indeed in twenty years' time, I shall glow and be smiling like you. God bless you.❤❤❤
Hi Sandra
I’m 35 and live watching your videos. I soak in your wisdom and appreciate you sharing your life with me. Thank you so much
Flying/traveling alone was a challenge for me too Sandra. I agree with you about giving away our treasures to those we love. I have started doing that and it makes me happy to see them happy. You are the ☀️ of my life 🤗
Thank you for being here today.
Thank u very much
I am 48 but I have subscribed to your channel because you are a great role model and source of encouragement for embracing and maximising what ever time God gives me to live well. I'm enduring time of suppression but I desire to live continuously in Christ with a strong positive spirit and you are such an encouragement. Thankyou
Missed you last week but glad you took a week off for yourself. Totally agree on having a positive attitude and also trying things even if you don't succeed. It builds character and a sense of accomplishment for trying. And we learn from our mistakes. Thank you for your terrific videos Sandra!
Thanks for waiting for me.
I watched you as a child, so delighted ❤
And, now at 43 - you're still a wise, beautiful, guiding light - Thank you so much, Sandra 🥰🌞
You are so right and I'm glad you are sharing. I was 50 by the time I realized that worry is not having faith and not living right now, in this moment. A few years later, I discovered that happiness is a choice -- it's not something you seek.
I'm not even in my 20's, but I'm already taking care of my physical and mental body, once I want to get older healthy. These tips showed me that I'm on the right way! Thank you for sharing this with us ♡
I am 64 , but I find your advices very helpful and I admire your attitude towards life ❤
Me Too. She makes me feel positive about ageing.
@@johnboy6594 So true 👍
@@mirnamisevic1993 Hello how are you doing
I just turned 30 a few months ago and this video is still applicable. Inspiration in true beauty.
Dear Sandra thank you for your precious advices. I know that all you said is important for my health but sometimes I don,t feel like to do anything. The only thing that I do everyday is to walk with my little dog. Our thoughts sometimes are not very helpful, this is the worst part of our journey because they are very difficult to control. Thank you again it is always a pleasure to listen to you. 🙏❤️
You may be depressed. Perhaps a visit with your doctor is in order?
I found that faith, positive attitude, and looking forward instead of backwards, has helped me with my grief since my husband has passed away
You always cheer me up. Life is hard and you have had a hard time but you always see the bright side. Thank you for your advice and cheery attitude. God bless you and your family!!!
Growing up in the Balkans within a middle-class family, I never received guidance on how to align my life with the conventional wisdom, even though these principles were considered the norm. As a result, now in my early 30s and living independently, I am actively incorporating the positive advices gleaned from books and the internet. Discovering this channel has provided me with a newfound confidence, reaffirming that I don't have to conform to the patterns set by my family. Instead, I can strive to become a role model, embracing a strong mindset and physical well-being.
Thank you Sandra for your time to share valuable thoughts.
Alex
1. You are what you think. You set your own limits. You are the only one who can measure you. Your strengths your weaknesses.
2. Think positively. Keep a positive mindset. Mindset is everything. We are what we think and if we have a positive mindset and 99% of the time whatever we are struggling through we will get to the end of it in a positive way. If you worry about failing all the time you will stress yourself out some more. And if you do fail and always keep wondering what if we can never move forward. If you fail get up off your knee's and try again.
the key to success is failure without quitting.
3. Don't sweat the small stuff. Worry is such a useless emotion it drains you of all energy and it is such a negative way to think about your life
4. Do muscle work.
5. Balance training as you age you lose balance you will fall
6. Excersice walk.
7. Socialize don't self isolate. Get an animal.
8. Switch it up. Get out of the rut you are in.
9. No guilt self care. Take care of your skin. Take care of your mind take care of your body. Take care of your hair
You not only talk the talk you walk the walk you teach us by example.💐💖💯
Hello
True.."You are what you think",thanks for the advice.I"m 62...regards from the Phils.
Thanks for listening
I would love to spend an afternoon with Ms Sandra and just listen to her. She’s beautiful inside out and radiates such positive energy.❤
This morning we flipped on the tv TH-cam & you were featured in the line up with a big 84. I said” Oh there is my lady! She must be 84 now” He said, “She sure doesn’t look 84.” We’ll you must have had a birthday. I hope it was very happy & exciting! You are indeed a very good role model for how to live well & thrive through life’s ups & downs. Thanks for this & all of your heartfelt & wise & helpful talks. Love & Blessing, Carolyn
23 here and it's just so precious to hear older people advices, to see how we can age gracefully and always keep our spirit youthful ❤✨

How are you doing today?
Hello Loretta
I am 25 years old and I went through many ups and downs but after hearing your words you really bring the hope to me
I really feel every word that you said in my life
Thank you from the bottom of my heart I will sincerely follow your advices ❤❤
Sandra, your videos are so great that I am stopping in the middle of this one to tell you! 💗I follow all of your advice. Yesterday I went to have a facial and massage and the facial technician couldn’t believe that I am 70! I am a volunteer at a botanical garden and a tv extra!! 😊 Thank you!!
Hello Linda how are you doing today
I love this! I’m 32 and I just find your channel so refreshing in this loud culture. THANK YOU FOR THIS!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Sandra, I think this is your best video. You obviously follow your own advice, and this is why you look so beautiful and will be forever young. ❤
I appreciate all you say and do to encourage us. I'm 71 years young and I do feel young the majority of the time, but I have my days when I worry. But then I get over it. I'm in good health, but I need to exercise. So here I go. Thank you again, Sandra, for your encouraging words.❤❤❤ God bless.
We need more people like you and videos sharing positive, caring messages rather than avoiding aging how to embrace it gracefully ❤❤❤
Love your channel ❤
Found your channel just recently and am binge watching....this specific episode resonated with me...esp after the pandemic, sitting on couch too much. I am doing water aerobics and hiking, & getting back in nature. Thank you for reaching out to others with your wise insight. -Elaine, a former Romper Room Watcher.
You are a wonderful woman
Wow I’m 30 and for sure u look younger and more positive than me…god bless u♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Perfect timing. I absolutely needed to hear this today. I really appreciate you addressing anti aging. It is amazing. I looked at myself in the mirror literally three hours before I was led to your video . I was on the cusp of going on the ‘thought ‘ merry go round of endless negativity . You are gorgeous btw . Definitely the one who would know. I’m so thankful . I’m about to turn 53 . It is going to be a great year now that I have a game plan. ❤ from Phoenix, Az
Same here. What wonderful advice from this beautiful lady ❤
Thank you for the inspiring reminders & encouragement. Isn't it wonderful the way God created our spirit, soul & body to work together!!
Good morning Sandra, welcome back. Thank you for your input. I am 56 and I think is a good idea to give away some things that we love but don't use anymore or that someone else would appreciate as much as we do. Is best not to accumulate, specially those personal treasures ❤
Thanks for sharing!!
You're so wise and kind and sweet... Luv
Sandra, I'm so thankful I found you. 😊 I'm sharing you with lots of special people. This message today was the BEST. God bless you.
Hello beautiful
How are you doing today
Thank you for your good advice - we all need a 'big sister' to help us along on this life journey. God bless.
Hello
One of your BEST videos! So much helpful information & I sure needed to hear it & many others did, also. You are such a light!! I turned 70 in April. I exercise (walk 3 mi every morning M-F) take care of myself, & love being social but I need to step out of my comfort zone more! Thank you for this excellent video. You look beautiful, rested, & happy. Safe travels as you step out of your comfort zone & meet new ppl along the way.😊 You are such an amazing individual & I look forward to "visiting" with you every Tuesday. Thank you!
I turn 70 on Sunday; its the hardest birthday; but very grateful for good health, exercise and social activities so no complaint.
I am so impressed with your travel courage; and the New York debacle, I am sure that was miserable. I will be 70 Sunday and the number seems daunting. I haven’t traveled out of my area since before covid and have no desire to go anywhere; I have traveled to Europe/S America…over the years but nothing seems worth the risk now, especially as a senior as the public landscape is so unpredictable. I admire you travelers and puzzle at why I don’t have that wanderlust.
@Pseudopross Happy birthday Sunday!! I hated turning 70 but it's better than the alternative! :) I walk 3 miles every day M-F, eat healthy, & love meeting new ppl & being social.
@@ninaeaston3083 Hello Nina
How are you
A healthy positive life style mentally and physically. Love Colin
Woundedul advice Sandra - everything starts with a positive mindset - line you I’ve lost precious time over worrying about things you simply can’t change - I’ve discovered weights and strength resistance training at 61 and I love it - I lift weights do Pilates and walk - there is an definite correlation btw feeling physically strong and good mental health as well as being able to move more easily - I’ve changed my diet focussing on protein good fats fruit salads and vegetables minimising processed fats and sugars (though i still have the occasional treat) have lost over 50 pounds another 30 to go - as my darling mother used to say life is for living - keep well we love you xx i have so much more travel I want to do. Sandra consider including K2 it enhances the absorption of Vitamin D and is beneficial in preventing blood clots as we age 100 mg per day. This is one of your very best videos x
worry is planning a future you don't want. when you realise you are not your thoughts but you control your thoughts and you have the ability to guard your mind from negativity. when I realised that i am creating my life with my thoughts i began to analyse every thought and affirm new thoughts of success beauty and wealth. You do become what you think about.
Thank you Miss Sandra for your channel, your presence, your positive energy, sharing your experience and optimism. You are sooo loving and compassionate and gracious! May you be blessed with good health, loving family, loving friends and joy🎉 Thank you, Sandra! ~kari on the West Coast of Canada ❤
I'm 27 and I just found your channel and oh my, I'm going to listen to you every day! Thank you for being such a beautiful inspiration 💛
Your advice is wonderful and so helpful to everyone. I go to Silver Sneakers three days per week which is helpful. Sometimes I don’t want to go, but if I think of the benefits and go I feel better. I’m 78 and have some balance issues so I need to focus on that. Another important thing is to watch our posture…stand straight and sit up straight. Nothing makes people look older is to be bent over when walking or sitting.
Dear beautiful Lady! You say things preatty banals for people like me working with patients BUT the way you explain ,the happy soul Who comes out from your glance, makes the difference. Congratulations
Thank you Sandra. Your words resonated with me, especially about attitude. I'm 73yo, my beloved husband died 12 yrs ago. I've worked thru the grief of his dying. Three years ago, I adopted Ziva, my beloved Corgi and recently she passed at 7yo due to cancer. We had five glorious weeks together from day of dX to death. I'm totally lost without her. Too soon to even think about another doggy. Ziva and I fit together so well, my companion. She was like velcro. I live alone and have not felt lonely until now. Trying to work thru the grief. So, I'll try to have a better attitude too and be thankful for the time we had together. It's difficult.
I’m so sorry for your loss. Your doggy sounds like she was very lucky to have you as her mommy. Take care.
Hello Alex how are you doing
So sorry for your loss. Wishing you strength and healing in this time of grief. Hope things get better for you soon.
Thank you Sandra! You are beautiful ❤woman and have a good soul ! You are an inspiration,
I just turned 52, and past 20 years doing just that what you shared ( except more weights) By nature Im loving life and teaches you how to be love and spread amongst people with my actions. First , kind words or patience, even to ignorant people , they do appreciate.
Care for myself its such a treat and gives me energy for the next week . Need it to get out of my comfort zone cause son is grown will learn new habits , new practices . Reminder , where I place my attention thats succeed .During the pandemic Didn’t feel like eating red meat or alcohol for five months, then I finally made my dream come true, traveling to Paris and Florence, and of course, made a conscious decision to try everything good those countries offer. Then came back to my healthy life!! Be joyful and don't sweat the small stuff!
Peace prosperity and dreams come true!! ✨
Your episodes mean so much to me. Thank you for helping us all in the many various dynamics of being healthy, dynamic, active women over 60.
you look wonderful! I hope to live to that age and maintain my sanity.
So much warmth and sunshine coming from you! I cannot get enough ❤
Thank you for sparkling your energy through the video!
I’m 28 and sometimes i feel like i’m retired grumpy grandma, just complaining, feeling bad and thinking about what shoulda, woulda, coulda. Not living the life I have, but just wishing it was different.
It’s not a pleasant feeling but it’s a huge progress I came to realizing that at least.
You are an example how I want to grow - wise, calm, loving, grateful. Such a blessing to find you, i finally have an amazing example to follow!
Thank you!!!
God bless you and your glowing beautiful skin!🥰
Thank you Sandra 🙏 what an absolute winner this week's video is !!!. Cannot wait for next Tuesday 😊
I woke up this morning with the words SELF CARE percolating in my ex now I know why! Thank you ,Sandra, for all the tips and reminders as to how to keep it going.💃 Also, I appreciate your sharing of the fact that you need to push yourself to stay social. I also am quite content with my own company, yet your point is so true that it's important to have interaction with others. I applaud you for reminding yourself to do what Arthur had prompted you to do. That's the whole beautiful message of this vid, for me, anyway. Keep moving forward while practicing self care and self love🥰 challenge yourself. MOVE! LIVE! LOVE! Thank you for consistently shining your light and encouragement by example. YOU. ARE. A. PEACH!!🍑🩷🧡💛
Thank you. I'm 57 . I just gave my daughters 24 & 26 Some of my precious things. I wanted to see them enjoy them while I'm still here. My dad's from traverse city, mi. He met my mom in Pgh, pa. And stayed. Our family vacations were a blast visiting our relatives. My cousin's were here last year for my mom's 80's b day. They really enjoyed our city and suburb. I just introduced my mom to your channel. You're really helping her. We lost my dad to parkinson's 5 years ago. She loves your channel just as much as I do. Thanks again. 🩷🫶🙏🌷☯️🌟
Hi Sandra, Your advice is so spot on, and I need to put it into action. It’s so easy to get into a rut, and so hard to getting out of it. One thing I do need in my life that would help, would to be living closer to my family. We live across the country from them. As I get older, it really has changed my mind set, and not in a good way. Never take your family for granted, and try to stay close with them if you can. Have safe & fun travels on your upcoming trips ! 💜💜

Hi Sandra l thought the anti ageing video was amazing. I can relate to a lot you talked about mostly due to a life changing event. I was diagnosed with colon cancer at 52 and survived it luckily. It changed my whole perspective on life . I retired from a stressful business and now at 61 l when back to my younger hobbies . I had not horse ridden for 40 yrs and decided to buy a beautiful palomino horse which l ride and enjoy showing him . I now treasure the simple things in life a lot more so for me l hope to keep positive and l am now grateful for the time l have to enjoy life. ❤ xx

Hello Barbara
How are you doing
Sandra you a beautiful light and inspiration for us all 🥰.
I love you, Sandra!♥️♥️ Yes, physical movement like walking is really important. I introduced walking for about an hour in my almost daily routine. I can tell the difference. Yes, it eliberates endorphines and I feel so good✨ I try to keep myself active both physical and mental since I’m going through a difficult period of time right now..I noticed that keeping feeling lost and sad does me NO good, you reminded me of that, thank you so much♥️🤗
Wow. Wonderful..watching this at age of 40 myself, its such an enlightening heartful conversation handed away
I needed to hear all of this today, especially 'know that you are always loved'. Thank you for being you and sharing your love with the world!
So happy to hear you are going to beautiful Traverse City to visit your brother!! You know I am shaking my head in agreement, Sandra!! Love you, my friend...MaryEllen
Hello beautiful MaryEllen
How are you doing
God bless you Sandra! Very smart approach to anti-aging tips. Love the way you go through life and your decision to help others. Your video are full of marvelous things the details of sharing what you look and enjoy around teaches about your soul helping to live better. Dear Sandra you are making our life better and enchanted. Thank you to be there for us.
Sandra, you're such a wonderful person to care of yourself and your beloved families 👪 ❤️ ♥️ 🎉
Thank you for reinforcing my own thoughts being active, after I had covid twice I kind of slowed down and lack of energy , and I decided no one is coming knocking on my door it's up to me to make it happen, so I joined the YMCA and I'm so glad I did, it not only helped me physically but mentally as well, thank you Sandra for reminding me the work we put into it is so well worth it
May I ask, is it costly to join the YMCA? Thanks in advance.
@@jeanetteh.9240 is $60 a month if you know anyone that goes there and it's a referral you get 20% of which is $48 regular gym's are much cheaper but as an older person you kind of feel out of place , it's well worth it
I JUST submitted my retirement paperwork. I’m scared and excited at the same time!!! I love your vibe - thanks!!❤
Walking was drilled into me when I was young by my mom, "Above all, do not lose your desire to walk. Everyday I walk myself into a state of well being and walk away from every illness,. I have walked myself into my best thoughts and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it. But by sitting still, and the more one sits still, the closer one comes to feeling ill...if one keeps on walking everything will be alright." Soren Kierkergaard. My mom lived to 90 in her home taking care of herself. She died in her home, sat down in her arm chair and floated off to heaven. And yes, walking with a four legged companion is that much better.
That's beautiful!
@@maryfrey Thank you, Mary.
@@dreamgaits You're welcome! I'm going to write it down so I don't forget it. Your mom was very wise.
Thank you, Sandra! I am not over 60 yet, but I needed this.
I find it incredible how so many 50 and 60 year olds won’t use computers or phones to do everyday things (like register for accounts, create logins, and genera tasks using an internet program), while Sandra here, at 84, has social media accounts and posts well-produced, we’ll-edited TH-cam videos….another example of what it means to stay young! Never stop learning and growing.
Yes,giving joy to others gives joy to everyone.Good advice all the way around.
Hello
Hi Sandra Your positivity is so important and inspiring. At age 72 I find myself in the weird place of reflecting so much on all the past chapters of my life and being acutely aware that time is not spread out in front of me like it used to be. Should I even buy new clothes?
Now I truly understand why my grandmother traveled in her older years as much as she did after her husband passed- it gave her forward motion and purpose.
Safe travels and your channel is a treasure you have been giving to us❤
Buy those clothes! 👍😄
😊
