00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,640
Speaker 1: Hey, gorgeous Jessica Laine here and welcome back to that

2
00:00:03,759 --> 00:00:07,719
girl Energy where we chat all things self, love, empowerment,

3
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:11,480
and that undeniable sparkle that keeps us glowing no matter

4
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:15,279
our age. Today we're diving into a topic close to

5
00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:20,000
my heart, mourning self care practices for women over forty. Now,

6
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:23,239
I know what you're thinking, isn't self care just bubble

7
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:27,120
bads and face masks. Well, girl, it's so much more

8
00:00:27,199 --> 00:00:29,480
than that. Think of it as setting the tone for

9
00:00:29,519 --> 00:00:32,399
your entire day, a chance to nurture yourself from the

10
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:36,200
inside out before the world starts demanding your attention. And

11
00:00:36,359 --> 00:00:39,960
trust me, Ladies in our forties and beyond, it's more

12
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:45,399
important than ever. We're juggling careers, families, maybe even grand kids,

13
00:00:45,679 --> 00:00:48,960
all while navigating the inevitable changes our bodies go through.

14
00:00:49,719 --> 00:00:53,719
Self care isn't a luxury, it's a necessity. So let's

15
00:00:53,799 --> 00:00:57,079
dive into five key takeaways that will revolutionize your morning

16
00:00:57,159 --> 00:00:59,719
routine and have you feeling like the radiant goddess you

17
00:00:59,759 --> 00:01:05,959
true are. First up, hydration is queen. Seriously, ladies, Hugging

18
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,359
that water first thing in the morning is like hitting

19
00:01:08,359 --> 00:01:12,359
the reset button on your system. It kickstarts your metabolism,

20
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:16,680
flushes out toxins, and leaves you feeling refreshed and energized.

21
00:01:17,439 --> 00:01:19,280
Think of it as a power up for your body

22
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:24,040
and mind. Ever, wake up feeling foggy, that's dehydration talking.

23
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:26,519
Start your day with a big glass of water and

24
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:31,560
watch the magic happen. Next, move your body, baby. It

25
00:01:31,599 --> 00:01:34,760
doesn't have to be an intense workout. Even ten minutes

26
00:01:34,799 --> 00:01:37,120
of gentle stretching or a brisk walk can make a

27
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:41,920
world of difference. Movement releases endorphins, those happy hormones that

28
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:46,000
leave you feeling positive and motivated. Plus, it gets your

29
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:51,319
blood flowing, improves circulation, and boosts energy levels. Remember that

30
00:01:51,439 --> 00:01:55,400
scene in Legally Blonde where Ellwood's aces her law school

31
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:59,959
exams after doing a killer workout. That's the power of movement, lady,

32
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:05,280
Get up, get moving, and feel the difference. Thirdly, mindfulness

33
00:02:05,319 --> 00:02:08,319
as your secret weapon. Take a few minutes each morning

34
00:02:08,319 --> 00:02:11,800
to sit quietly and focus on your breath. This simple

35
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:15,319
practice can help reduce stress, clear your mind, and set

36
00:02:15,319 --> 00:02:18,400
a calm and positive tone for the day ahead. Think

37
00:02:18,439 --> 00:02:20,400
of it as training your brain to be present and

38
00:02:20,479 --> 00:02:24,319
appreciate the little things. Ever, notice how quickly life can

39
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:28,639
zum by mindfulness helps you savor every moment. Now on

40
00:02:28,759 --> 00:02:32,599
to number four. Nourish your body with goodness. Skip the

41
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:36,759
sugary cereals and processed snacks. They'll leave you feeling sluggish

42
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:41,199
and craving more. Instead, opt for a nutritious breakfast packed

43
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:46,240
with whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and healthy fats. Think of

44
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,960
it as fueling your body like the high performance machine

45
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:53,879
it is. And finally, my darlings, embrace your inner goddess.

46
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,719
Spend a few minutes each morning looking in the mirror

47
00:02:56,759 --> 00:03:01,479
and appreciating your beautiful self informations that empower you and

48
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,879
remind you of your strength and worth. This simple act

49
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:06,879
can make a world of difference in how you feel

50
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:11,240
about yourself and approach the day ahead. Remember, ladies, we

51
00:03:11,319 --> 00:03:15,319
are fierce, fabulous and capable of achieving anything we set

52
00:03:15,319 --> 00:03:19,120
our minds to. Let me paint you a picture. Imagine

53
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,000
waking up at six a m. Instead of hitting snooze

54
00:03:22,039 --> 00:03:25,560
for the tenth time, you stretch out your arms, feeling

55
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,479
the warmth of the sun on your skin. Instead of

56
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,759
reaching for that sugary cereal, you whip up a smoothie

57
00:03:31,759 --> 00:03:35,280
pact with fresh fruit and greens a delicious and nutritious

58
00:03:35,319 --> 00:03:39,800
power boost. Then you take five minutes to meditate, focusing

59
00:03:39,879 --> 00:03:42,039
on your breath and letting go of any stress from

60
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,520
the day before. Afterward, you put on some music that

61
00:03:45,639 --> 00:03:49,560
makes you feel good think Beyonce on repeat, no judgment here,

62
00:03:50,319 --> 00:03:52,719
and do a quick dance session. While you get ready,

63
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:56,360
you look in the mirror, smile at yourself and say

64
00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:00,680
out loud, today is going to be amazing. See, self

65
00:04:00,719 --> 00:04:04,120
care isn't just about pampering. It's about creating a morning

66
00:04:04,199 --> 00:04:06,800
routine that sets you up for success and leaves you

67
00:04:06,879 --> 00:04:11,639
feeling energized, confident, and ready to conquer the world. So
