THE TRUTH ABOUT AGEING
Yet this is a natural part of life that we will all go through. So why the fear? There are numerous factors that can contribute, but if we pull back the curtain on this it usually isn’t about getting older itself – it’s the story we tell ourselves about what getting older means. Our own personal story about what ageing means tends to be a conglomeration of past experiences, interactions with others and the information and images we are exposed to through various forms of media on a daily basis. Unless we go digging into our beliefs, it’s usually not something we’re consciously aware of – it’s just our perception of the truth.
But different people have different ‘truths’ when it comes to ageing. Ageing to one person can mean feeling wiser and more comfortable in their own skin – which inspires a radiance of its own. While, to another, ageing may represent significant degeneration of their health or how they look or feel.
