I found your channel last week. I'm 67 and enjoy your vides. I sincerely pray that you find a physician who will help keep you healthy. As we age, we definitely need a doctor who will listen to our aches and pains. Take care of yourself!
This really reminds me of how important it is to make time for self-care. We have to make time - all of us - as we are so busy. I get up at 4AM to make this happen. The one thing that I do need to do more of is take more time at night for myself. I have my skin care routine which is a life saver, but it is not enough and I realized last night my evenings as soon as I get home are a freken mad dash - I also need to journal at night / have been doing so since the age of 14, and also writing in a gratitude journal
One tip my primary care gave me is to always schedule the following annual physical at your current one. That way I don’t have to think about it, and I’m on track. Not all clinics will schedule out so far, but hers does and I find it to be so helpful!
I too am a reader. Before bed and if I wake up in the middle of the night. Normally 15 minutes of reading and I'm back to sleep. I also take time to read when I eat lunch. I love all things Michael Connelly: Bosch, Lincoln Lawyer and Ballard! Always enjoy your Instagram and You Tube posts. msb
I’m so glad you mentioned Pahla B. She is awesome. I have been following her plan for over a year. It truly works. I’ve lost 15 pounds but I struggle with the journaling. I’m going to try your recommendation about the brain dump. That’s a great idea. Thank you!
Hello Marnie, I’ve been watching your videos for several years now and I always get at least one thing ,if not many, out of them that helps me to be a better person/human being. Thank you ❤
Ah, we gals do take care of others. I know you are a good care taker from watching your channel. I’m a walker. I have gotten up mornings at 4:30 am ( Monday thru Friday)and walk an hour. I have done this since 1993 when my dad had open heart surgery. My daughter, who just turned 40, started walking with me 23 years ago . I have been very aware of my diet and began eating clean a little over a year ago. Feel great. Take no meds. God has blessed me. Did some reading on red light therapy. There have been studies. I enjoy twenty minutes of sun daily when weather permits. I’m not much on fashion or make up but you have given me much food for thought in those areas. Thanks for sharing I do enjoy your channel!
Such a great & much needed video. Thank you Marnie for reminding us all to take better care of ourselves & also the great ideas. Love the brain dump idea😘
I'm with you on the book habit at bedtime. I almost get a bit anxious if I don't have a book lined up as I'm finishing up the current one. Currently reading "Devil in the White City" about the building of the Chicago Worlds Fair happening at the same time as a series of actual murders taking place in Chicago.
I’m right behind you, age wise. I love Paula B…I use to run a lot, but I’m aware of weight resistance and osteo…so I walk and do Paula B. I received my Trish M eyelift…LOVE, I’m not a big foundation gal. I like a tinted sunscreen and the eyelift handles the eyes. Thanks for the suggestion!
Going to try several of these recommendations Marnie! I’m now 65 and I’ve been with you since 2014! I come and go with other channels but I am almost always with you. You keep your channel fresh and full of new and different ideas and they are presented in a clear, accepting manner. ❤I love your channel! Hope you have a wonderful weekend.
Great advice! Especially about reaching out to someone because I recently found out that a friend from high school passed away last year and I had no idea. 😢
Couple additional thoughts: those earrings always look so great on you. I’m 51 and just tried the l’Occitan. Never been a shea butter fan….but OMG. The almond cleansing oil followed with the milk. SO WONDERFUL. Thanks for the recommendation!! So many quality recommendations over the years (couldn’t possibly name them all)…ikea bags for college kids, adhd work timer, trusted lab, life!clothes!! Books!!! Thank you friend.
Self care is so important! I never understood the selfish part. It makes no sense. It’s only when we take care of ourselves that we are truly able to care for others in a positive productive way. Thank you for sharing! Some things I do daily and love is oil pulling, drink 16oz of water with Molecular hydrogen and having collagen first thing in the morning. Read my Bible daily, I have a red light panel instead of a mask (it covers more area)..I do that daily and meditate while doing it focusing on my breathing to relax. I do yoga daily and some form of a workout. I love taking baths and have used that Dr Teals lavender that you showed. I also like the cannabis one lol. I end my day by writing three things I’m grateful for in my grateful journal. That little step helps in so many ways. Thanks Marnie!
Good stuff here, Marni!!! I'm going to purchase the mask from your link. I purchased the infrared hair helmet before Christmas from your link. I would love to have the sauna blanket too right now but it will have to wait. I hope you bring it up again in a couple months so we don't forget about it. Take care, from a long time sub.
I love your videos! Always great info! When I’m stressed or feeling out of sorts I have a book-yes I love to actually turn the pages--but there is a chapter in one of my favorite books that makes me laugh so hard and I earmarked it and when I’m stressed or just out of sorts I read that chapter and as ridiculous as it is I laugh so hard I cry every time and it makes me feel better. I recommended it to a friend and she loves it too! I also do exercise everyday and it helps! But this video really got me thinking and adding your suggestions!!
Thank you so much for recommending Pahla! Just finished for the first time and it’s just what I’ve been looking for! Strength but realistic for a 65 year old- me!
One of my self care habits: I only allow myself 30 minutes of watching/listening to news each day. I used to work for the governor of our state several years ago. I had to stay on top of current events daily, which drove my stress level up. When I left that position, I wouldn’t, and couldn’t, keep up with daily news. It had become too much of a brain suck and stressor. I feel 30 minutes now is more than enough time to catch up and then tune out.
I-L-L!! I am a fellow U of I grad but probably graduated a few years ahead of you. I just found your channel yesterday and am really enjoying your content....subscribed after the first video.
Hi Marnie I have recently found Pahla B too. Another great workout TH-cam is Burpee Girl. She puts out a video every single day. She doesn't talk, the music is good, they are knee friendly and range from 10 mins to over an hour. Most are in the 30 min range. Just a suggestion. Thank you for the video. All points are spot on.
Hello! Really enjoyed the content in this video…😌 All so true, thank you! Enjoy seeing all the editing extras, not going unnoticed…🙌🙌👍🏼👍🏼 Have a great day!! 😊☀️
I put Make up sponges on my Amazon subscribe & save (the beaky blenders). It reminds me to swap out my beauty blenders. 50 is Colonoscopy year! The prep is the hardest part 😉 I have been dealing with eczema the last year around my mouth. I heard that light therapy might help with eczema & psoriasis. I've read both red light & blue light. I need to do more research. You are looking more glowing & youthful for almost 50!!💕💗❤️😘
I so needed this video Marnie! We women are sometimes so busy taking care of others, we put ourselves last most of the time. It's the proverbial applying the oxygen mask lesson. We need to take care of ourselves first to better care for others. Thanks so much for the wonderful reminders and ideas. I'm ready to pull the trigger on the Higher Dose Infrared Sauna Blanket for Hashimoto's inflammation. Do you know any differences between thee HD Red Light Face Mask compared to the Omnilux? Thanks for the discount code. And as always you look gorgeous!
Marty, I loved this video! It is so timely for me. I’ve always been into make up close looking my very best doing absolutely everything possible to stay in good shape good health and yet sometimes life has other plans for you. I am six days out from brain surgery. Out of the blue I discovered I had a large brain tumor and was very fortunate to get into surgery quickly and at this point I am just lost in terms of moving forward. I’m sure hundreds if not thousands of your viewers have been in the same position. I’m not depressed. I’m not feeling sorry for myself. I’m trying to look down the road but I can’t wash my hair and use products. I can’t use a blow dryer. I just feel like a total mess and it’s not my vibe. I am in every Heron place type of girl, and I’d like to look like I stepped out of vogue so lying in bed with a rats nest of method here in, not really knowing which direction to go is got me a little anxious. I’m sure it will all work out and I don’t mean to be negative. But I do enjoy your videos and taking care of myself, is obviously going to be a big priority from this point on Thanks for all the time and effort you put into your channel. I’ve been following you for years and you seem like a really positive special person. I’ll stay tuned and hope for the best for myself and will take you up on your tips to continue to reach out to people. It’s amazing how much support there is with friends and family when you have a difficult situation and I feel so blessed at this point anyway, I’m getting very long winded at school probably be a video in itself lol thanks again for all your suggestions
Lynn!! I am so glad you’re ok! I’m by no means an expert in this, but I have heard from many people that have had major surgeries that it is very common to feel a sort of depression afterwards. Maybe if you know that this is part of the natural healing process and it won’t last will make it more helpful for you. Consider this a brief vacation from your day to day grind and try to find the positives. It sounds like you’re already starting to do that. I hope some of my other viewers who have real experience with this can chime in with some more helpful advice. I’m just so grateful you’re ok and here with us!
@@MsGoldgirl thanks Marnie! I know things will get better and I am in the very early stages of recovery. Any advice from your viewers is more than welcome. I am sure my surgeon and oncology team will have suggestions for me as well. I just don’t feel like myself obviously and I am anxious to get back to what I consider normality. This is just thrown me for a bit of a loop.
Hi, what is the shirt you are wearing? I’ve been looking fo a blue denim type shirt. It is so great to have those lifelong friends. I have 3 who are so dear to my heart. Unfortunately we don’t live close at all. 😮
I couldn't stop laughing at the mask because the little round thing hanging in front of your face reminded me of a dog race. I thought maybe you were meant to chase it around to help raise your temperature.
Really nice video, thank you for the reminders. If I may, another great channel for amazing workouts is Yoga with Adriene. I have never had such fast results from any form of exercise, ever. You’re the best! Have a great day!
I was going to recommend Adriene as well. I haven't missed a workout this month, and at this point I can safely say I'm hooked on my daily yoga practice.
I absolutely agree about the brain dump. I’m a corporate career gal and that is one of my secret weapons. I think, by writing it down, you no longer feel like “I have to remember…”. Really helps to clear the mind!!
thank you for the fitness you tube channel, these sound like the perfect work out for me to add to my current routine for some variety. I love fusion workouts, and working out barefoot. I have been doing Ellen Barrett workouts since her DVD days. Check out her online workouts, I think you would like them !
All great tips, Marnie. It should be enjoyable to take care of yourself. Regarding your health…tips from an older woman. Keep a medical calendar. Do all screenings: lipid, mammogram, colonoscopy, skin checks, and schedule for your spouse too! Try to be a partner with your doctors to prevent and catch things early. I have been positively motivated by using an electronic medical record that our healthcare system & physicians use. You can see everything about your care and stay on top of things. And do your own research about issues you might have…educate yourself!! Ok, I will stop preaching now. Stay well, friends!!
54 and just getting started on me. 👀 Better late than never ❣️
Always!
Just turned 40. Thank you so much for this video. This was a needed video 🌹
Happy birthday!!
I was told as one ages, you can start to worry uneedlessly about small stuff. We need to fight that tendency. 💕
I found your channel last week. I'm 67 and enjoy your vides. I sincerely pray that you find a physician who will help keep you healthy. As we age, we definitely need a doctor who will listen to our aches and pains. Take care of yourself!

Great ideas! I just signed up for your newsletter. I’ve missed your book recommendations and am glad to know you’re still doing them!
Yes! Thank you!
Such great reminders and suggestions! Thank you. Btw your hair is looking so great just wanted to throw that out there. 👍🏻

Just found your channel. I'm also in San Antonio!
So cool! Hello neighbor!!
@@MsGoldgirl Hi neighbor!
Great tips! Are your earrings actually the Ipanema style? Maybe a misspelling in info box below. What color stone is your set? 😊
The link is correct but the name is a typo. I think it's moonstone.
thanks for vid pretty lady. be safe
Thank you! You too!

Great tips Marnie, thanks for sharing. You look amazing!
Thanks so much!
Do Michael and the children die out laughing at that mask?? Mine would all fall on the floor laughing!🤣
Michael is a little freaked out by it. My kids thankfully have not witnessed this in real life. ;)
What a great list of ideas! Thank you 😊
