HOW TO AVOID THE FEAR OF GROWING OLD

It is a matter o choice. It is what we choose to do going forward. We can choose to work on ourselves and say I don't want to be the middle aged woman I see in the mirror. I discuss how to avoid the fear of growing older. As a woman it is harder for us..

I have been taking care of my 40 year old disable son since his birth. Now as I reach 65 next month and plan to retire in August, I feel trapped because I will probably live the rest of my life taking care of him. I guess some of us just have to accept our fate and move on. Thank you Sandra for this video. I have 5 other adult children that I am going to set some hard limits for and at least free up some of my time for me. It's my time.

I’m 19 and I’ve constantly been having fears of getting older and dying. Even during the past years before I turned 19, I’ve also had this same fear quite a bit from time to time. But now it just keeps happening nearly on a regular basis. Sometimes it gets to the point where I tend to cry so much especially at night while snuckling under my blanket because of how inevitable it is for all of us to age & that I know that I will be experiencing this too within many many years time…even if it’s still a really long way.

[ec]

I’ve recently turned 15 And I’ve been struggling so much accepting that I will never get my childhood back and having so much anxiety about getting older and getting more responsibility’s but your words although they may not be directed at me are very healing ❤️ thank you for sharing Sandra !!!🌺

[maloupenalosa]

Since i reached the age of 60 i taught myself to live and love me by myself..since i lost my husband. I am ready to age though its kinda scary but i always say to myself that if my mother was able to do it so i can do it too. Thank you for your encouragements and wisdom.

[shirleyhook]

I sit here and listen to your words and I see myself. I have always been there for my family. Caring for them is such a joy. But here lately I feel that I need something different something for me. I did feel guilty I have to let go of trying to please and make everyone else happy and you are so right It is my time now. They have there own lives to live children and friends and life goes on and somehow we make it. Turning 70 this year has made me look back and let go and go forward. I am so happy just as you said, that my children are well productive women that has made their way to a good life for themselves. My youngest daughter is moving to Florida at the end of this month. This will be the first time I will have been that far from one of my daughter not to be able to jump in the car and see them in 30 minute. I have to look back and remember that I to left home I to had a life far from my mom and dad. I made it and so will she. As we grow older everything changes we just need to move with the changes and know that some how some way things always turn out ok. Thank you for doing these video and thank you for allowing me to sound my voice on how I feel. My words are not eloquent maybe misspelt, but come straight from my heart. Your voice bring wisdom to a world that seems to have lost it way. Have a bless day and know that you are appreciated here by I know so many of us viewers here on you tube. God bless you Sandra and thank you for being here. I do hope it is ok to write as much as I have. Thank you

Sandra, this is exactly where I am in my life. After so many years of taking care of my husband (we are now divorced for 10 years), my children & my parents, I'm finally single, and for the first time in my life, I'm really finding out who I really am, as well as discovering talents that I didn't even know I possessed. For instance, I live in Florida, and after hurricane Irma came through, I was without electricity in my home for 7 days...it was 95-98 degrees with very high humidity...so it was very miserable, but I made it through that; however, in the aftermath of it all, for some reason I started suffering from a very deep depression to the point that I didn't even want to get out of bed in the mornings....so one morning my paramour convinced me to let him take me out to breakfast at our favorite little cafe, as we got out of the car, and were walking into the cafe, I spotted something very brightly colored sitting on the outside window seal of this restaurant, so I went over and looked to see what it was, and it was a beautifully painted rock that simply said "You are Loved"....and for some reason that Little Rock lifted my spirits and started me on my own painting journey. I went and bought me a bag of landscaping stones (the little round flat gray ones), then I went and bought me a whole bunch of acrylic paints and some brushes. I came home and started painting these Little Rock's, and before you know it I was painting beautiful landscape pictures and seascapes and birds and just everything you can imagine on these rocks, and to my amazement, I had no idea that I was capable of creating something so beautiful....but it was like magic! I now give these little works of art as gifts to family and friends, as well as I leave a few scattered around in obvious hiding places for others to find when I go out. I'll always be grateful to whomever it was that left the Little Rock that I found that had such a profound effect on my life, and enabled me to discover one of my many hidden talents! Your absolutely right, it is our time to really get to know who we are as women. Since my divorce 10 years ago, I've discovered so much about myself that I didn't know....and as it turns out, I'm a lot stronger and more courageous than I ever thought I was! Thank you for sharing this video. Peace, love & blessings to you! 😊❤️🙏🏻

Your wonderful Sandra! I’m 64 with four grown children and my husband is 3 years older than I, this hit home, thank you !♥️

[jessicamieres]

Wow Sandra! You are such an inspiration for me. I am 37 years old and was looking for motivation on aging. I am currently the caretaker of my dad who is 81 years old and is not very happy. He's been a huge role model for me so hearing him complain about being old kind of scares me, to be honest. But when I saw this video and your channel, what a difference perspective it gave me. I am so proud of you and so grateful for you. You have encouraged me in so many ways. May you live long, healthy and happy. Big hugs to you from me. With love and admiration, Jessica Mieres

I chose to embrace each and every day, Sandra. Each birthday brings new adventures. There is something more freeing as the sun rises each day. Enjoyed this very much, my friend....MaryEllen

Hi Sandra,
It’s a lovely rainy afternoon here and I have time to look back on some of your past videos. This one is outstanding. I like the way you express your views and let your followers think for themselves.
When I was in my twenties, a terrible anxiety overtook me for several years.I think all I had been thru when I was younger finally caught up to me. I couldn’t bear the thought of getting older. I wish I could of saved myself so much torment, but I lived thru it and my spiritual connection grew strong. This strength has been with me til now. I find meditation and praying are wonderful ways to calm the mind. I am happy to be living in a time where we are seeing more older women stepping up and creating or extending a career as older models and actresses. There are so many more ways to be viewed on tv and at the movies than before.
It might ruffle the feathers of those who seek me out, but I am following your example now. I told my daughter that she is lucky that I have embraced this way of thinking and I hope she too will put herself first in her own life.
I think aging is as varied as there are people. We can’t live in the past or the future, as we only have now. The great thing about the popularity of you tube, is the explosion of people teaching others you can live the life you want. It all starts with believing in yourself and your dreams. The best part is the experiences going towards it with all the unexpected outcomes. I find the more I focus on what is good in my life, most issues tend to get resolved.
Have a wonderful weekend.
Warmest regards,
Ana Sophia

I really like the fixtures in your room Sandra. I share your outlook on life. I am 79 and lost my husband last year. My family does not live close. We talk on phone and plan to visit but it is some getting used to. I love your message Sandra. God Bless you!

[zickafoose]

Love your video. Two of my adult children live hundreds of miles away as do my grandchildren. Two other adult children are so busy they don’t infringe on my time. I’m free and don’t need to care for anyone at this point.My passion seems to be to lead a quiet, healthy and restful life with a little travel along the way.

I have no fear at all of growing old. I just don't even think about. I met Eileen Ford in a restaurant when I was in my mid-20's and she handed me her card, asking if I ever thought about modeling. No, I never did. She was an elegant woman, very very nice, but as soon as she left the table I threw the business card in my purse and took it out about 6 months later as I was cleaning out my purse. I never was into my looks, it just isn't my but give me a nice bottle of perfume and I'll do handstands....and a tube of Tom Ford lipstick. What's been really bothering me of late is losing all my old friends that I've had since the 60's. I'm just about ready to bury my last old friend, she's in the hospital now, and her husband called to tell me she won't be coming home. When I delete email addresses, and take out my address book and ink out the names of my old and dear friends, now that bothers me. Wrinkles don't, sags and bags don't bother me, but losing friends I've had since my that tears my heart out. All those women, cannot be replaced, because we were good friends since we were in our 20's and we went through the ups and downs of life together, and losing them all, one by one, that's the most heartbreaking thing. We laughed in our 70's and I would say I'll be over your house as fast as my arm ''bat wings" will take when I'm home in NYC, I'll tell my girlfriend, look. I'm not crossing Park Ave unless I show a full 20 seconds on that street monitor board, once it drops down to 10 seconds, I'm not about to hoof across all those lanes. We were able to laugh from our 20's to our 70's, and, laughter is the best medicine of all. It will keep you young forever. I firmly believe that.

Hi lovely lady! Sandra, I think it is SO much harder to grow older/age by yourself. The world not only finds you invisiblle, but, having no one by your side is terrifying. I've been married and widowed, and aging alone has been my worst nightmare come true. Yes, I filled the role of caretaker; now, who will care for me? My children are involved and busy with their own partners and kids. I can't depend on them. I fear the bag lady scenario, I fear having no one who cares JUST for me, who loves me, even on my worst day, with no conditions. I've had that love twice in my life, but now, at 65+, I'm so unhappy here without either of them. All you say is quite true, and I know some women prefer life without a partner. But, for me, life without love is no life at all. God bless you; have a happy and safe weekend! Rosemarie ♡ xoxo

[lynnmazalewski]

[jongreen]

Thanks again for your support and prayers and alleluia alleluia Amen

[jeanmasonmcmahon]

Hi Sandra I totally agree now on putting yourself first. My life was alot like yours taking care of others. It is time! Thank you God Bless! You are a lovely person

[suesilva]

Adult children seem to feel entitled to our time it seems. I am gently teaching them this is not so. It's a hard lesson.

[creativelady]

I loved this talk from you. At 67 I have this on my mind soo much lately. I am married 47 years 2 children 2 grands, and a caretaker for sure. Yes the word BOUNDARIES, and balance, says it all. We do really need to think out what you have said! Thank you! Also really enjoy all the peaceful intros on your vids!
