I was listening to an interview with Christiane Northrup tonight, and as usual, she said a lot of good and useful things:
Read Outlander by Diana Gabaldon
Stop it with the shallow breathing
Eat your vegetables - 9 servings a day, which is not as bad as it sounds because a serving is half a cup
Take the time to actually chew your food
Take omega-3s every day, either as fish oil or flaxseed; your brain needs them
Don't just sit there, move some every day
Watch your wheat/oats/corn/barley intake because one in three women has a gluten allergy
Vitamin D will be the next big thing, as there is reliable evidence that it can reduce your risk of certain cancers
Whatever you don't deal with in your cycling years (physical, emotional, and otherwise) will come back and bite you and then some during menopause
Avoid the synthetic HRT, go for the bio-identical stuff
Deal with your mother relationships, whether you are a mother and/or you have one - accept that your mother may not always have been perfect, and neither will you be
Avoid and/or ditch people who put you down for taking care of yourself and having your act together
Whatever you absolutely loved to do when you were 11 years old, start doing again (no wonder I want to take cello lessons 20 years on; when I was 11, I was just starting guitar lessons - must be a string thing)
