Aging in Wellness


Dear Fellow Baby Boomers.


People always tell me that I don't look old enough to have a grown daughter.
Well the years and a few good Creole genes have been kind to my face, but I am constantly aware that I have to be kinder to my body, because the years- and a few car accidents- have not been so kind to it. As a singer traveling around a lot, this in important.

So what are the secrets to aging in wellness?

1. Staying focused on your purpose in life, by pursuing your dreams!
2. Remembering you are not a number. Age is a fact but not a factor in happiness!
3. Eating those fattening things you like as a treat and not as a daily habit
4. Focusing on prevention of illness rather than being a hard head about your diet and then being surprised when you get sick!
5. Dancing every chance you get!
6. Rembering water is your friend!

#1. I just returned from performing in concert in Paris, a long time dream of mine. Pursuing this dream and achieving it has been fantastic and takes care of #2 as well
#3 and 4... Well this is not always easy with the Creole cooking in New Orleans, but I am doing OK with staying focused....most of the time. LOL!!!!
#5 Just had a great time dancing the other day even though a very long hot soak in the tub quickly followed!
#6 Water is indeed my friend. I am going to get some now.

But in case I am not always as diligent as I should be, I have found some products that I really like and that are having a great impact on my aging in wellness.

I just discovered in Berry Greens Boost!
1 serving of Berry Greens Boost in an 8 ounce glass of water (or you could add it to juice- I like that) has all the nutrients of 8 salads, increases your energy, mental clarity, and strengthens your immune system.
It comes in single serving packs for people on the go. It gives you lots of energy without sugar or caffeine. And if you have colon cancer in your family like I do you will want to take advantage of BG Boost's colon cleansing properties.

I wish I had BGBoost when I was in Paris, because the flight was a little challenging! But I drank it the other day and I was ready to go!! There is a great video on the website that explains it all!

So join me in my new Aging in Wellness adventure! Any suggestions you have would be greatly appreciated. What are you all doing?

Hey Givonna,

Yes I agree with you on the Berry Greens Boost! It is very energising and gives me mental clarity. Whether you are going to work out at the gym or just going to work a regular day of work, it will give you that boost of energy that you need to get you through the day. Plus it is all natural and gives you all the fiber and greens that you would get if you had eaten 8 salads, but you can just add it to your water and drink it on the go!! It is so quick and easy, just grab, pour , shake and drink!! That simple!!

Hi! Givonna, Just wanted to let you know I tried your Berry Boost. I like it best with Juice! Thanks for letting me know about it. I noticed a difference in energy the very same day!

Hi Givonna,

I have to agree the Berry Greens Boost is a fantastic way to increase energy and nutrition in one simple step. I am a BIG fan of this incredible product!! It's great for anyone on the GO too since you can grab it and go! The single serve packets are so convenient too...I always make sure that I have some in my purse for those days that I am on the run and don't have the time to make sure that I have met my nutritional requirements. Excellent product!!
