Midlife Sunrise - Reaching Middle Age
Life Middle Aged

Middle Age Jargon

No Comments

“It beats the alternative” is something ladies of a certain age say, particularly when in the company of good friends, coffee (wine) and cake (anything sweet over 1000 calories!). It basically means forgive our earlier whining about getting old and creaky, and know that we’re truly appreciative that we’ve made it this far. Life is short and should never be taken for granted.

 Seen just before Surrender yoga this afternoon. I like it! Sometimes we focus so much on the good in others and are our own worst critics. Don’t forget to see the good in you too. ❤️ #yoga #lifetimefitness #zen #seethegood #midlife #selflove #yoga #yogapractice #arizona #bekind #bekindtoyourself ❤️  Absolutely glorious sunset this evening from the back garden. No filter required. I know family in 🇬🇧 are hunkering down during a snow storm and other parts of the states are freezing cold. Stay safe. Remember in August you’ll be outdoors enjoying the weather while we roast. ❤️#sunset #arizonasunset #arizona #azfamily #winterinarizona #midlife #nofilter #azliving #azlife  Taken in our back garden yesterday. It flew past Richard and he managed to catch a photo. ❤️ . #arizona #hummingbird #desertliving #arizonawinter #midlife #backyardbirds #instagramover50 #instagramaz #azliving #azphotography #ig_arizona  #repost @functionpilates No matter how hectic my day has been, the second I walk through this door @functionpilates I feel my mind calm and I breathe. When was the last time you really took a breath and focused on body awareness? So many times we take a breath and forget to really exhale. Working on balance, flexibility and strength is particularly important in midlife. Pilates nourishes the body and soul bringing us into the present. ❤️ #pilates #midlifecareerchange #fitnessover50 #midlifefitness #midlife #instagramover50 #fitness #breath #azfitness #azfitnesscommunity #pilatesinstructor #azmom #azlife #tempe #over50fitness #localbusiness #shoplocalaz  We hiked the Wave Cave Trail Sunday. Beautiful views and weather was just right. Another couple months and it’ll be toasty but for now it was perfect. Lots of climbing and clambering on this hike at the end but worth the view. As a plus there is a loo at the start of the Peralta Trail nearby. A must have at my age. 🦅🦎 #midlife #hiking #midlifefitness #over50fitness #fitnessover50 #windcave #arizonahiking #arizona #nature #hikingadventures #hiking #instagramaz #instagramover50 #azfitness #workout #azfamily  Lessons from our rescue kitty Turbo! Chill out, live in the present, and if you need a nap, take one! Turbo doesn’t give a hoot about living up to his name. While I admire and am cheering on all those people that are in full swing with their New Year Resolutions, personally I have not made a single one.  Gonna just enjoy the simple things in life like a hug, a hot cuppa tea 🇬🇧, and chocolate!  Take time to smell the roses. ❤️Did that just sound suspiciously like a New Year Resolution?  . . #arizona #midlife #newyearresolution #bepresent #breathe #catsofinstagram #instagramover50 #gratitude #simplelife
