Feel Good Aging is for everyone who wants to take action and shape the way they age. We all age, every day. But there is plenty we can do to age well, and feel good for a long time to come. It is about understanding which lifestyle choices make us age faster and making informed choices to adjust them. It is about learning simple routines you can integrate into your day, week and month, that slow down the degeneration of your body and prepare you for nature’s challenges ahead. Yoga provides us with a great variety of tools for this.

• Pranayama (breathing exercises) to support our respiratory system.
• Yin yoga for joint and bone health and hyaluronic acid production.
• Sun salutations to support a healthy cardiovascular system.
• Face yoga (incl. eye exercises for vision) and self-massage for a more relaxed and fresher look and feel.
• Yang styles like hatha yoga and vinyasa to strengthen muscles (helps our bones too).
• Specific exercises for pelvic floor health.
• Balance exercises for brain health and to reduce risk of falling.
• Fascia yoga to train fascia (for freer movements) and collagen production.
• Meditation to reduce harmful high stress levels and to support our cognitive functions.

This list might feel a bit overwhelming and it is here, where Feel Good Aging comes in. With Julia’s years of experience in teaching yoga to all adult demographics and her intensive study of different yoga styles, she developed Feel Good Aging. Feel Good Aging combines the above elements in a holistic and efficient class, so even the busiest human can benefit. In the Feel Good Aging workshops you will learn in detail why the selection of exercises support healthy aging and learn about simple lifestyle changes you can start applying today to not only feel better in the short run but support longevity and graceful aging. As a yoga therapist in training, she is trained in how our hormones and food can impact our well-being and will also provide you with nutritional tips that will support your mission of feeling great for many days to come. Even though we want to celebrate aging, learn from other cultures, how they embrace midlife, menopause and beyond and getting older with joy and excitement, we do not know when we or our loved ones will leave their bodies. Hence, Feel Good Aging includes meditations and exercises to establish a new relationship with death, a less fearful and more accepting one. As the Buddha says: “Even death is not to be feared by one who has lived wisely.”

Though the tools Feel Good Aging provides have been shown in multiple scientific studies and experience to be efficient, they are not a magic pill, nor replace any medical treatment you might require.
