How do you feel? Do you feel old, or do you feel good for your age? What ideas or fears are brought up at the thought of growing older? <\/p>\n<p>For many women, the thought of &#8220;being old&#8221; is terrifying. <\/p>\n<p>After all, doesn&#8217;t getting older come with a guarantee of loss? At least, that&#8217;s what our society would have you believe.<\/p>\n<p>We all run programs about aging, imprinted by family and culture from a very early age. As little girls, we were sent messages that told us what it looked like to age. And now that we <em>are<\/em> aging, it brings up a whole new kind of emotions! <\/p>\n<p>I recently polled the women in my community to see how they felt about their own aging process. Their answers were both vulnerable and shocking at times. These were the top 4 fears that came up. <\/p>\n<h3>The Top 4 Fears About Aging<\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>&#8220;I don&#8217;t like the way I&#8217;m aging.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<p>53% of the women who answered my poll are unhappy with the way their bodies are changing. They specifically don&#8217;t like their wrinkles, <a href=\"\/dyt\/what-hairstyles-make-you-look-younger\/\" target=\"_blank\">thinning hair<\/a>, sagging skin, or loss of volume in their complexion. <\/p>\n<li><strong>&#8220;I don&#8217;t like having pictures taken of myself.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<p>62% of women are embarrassed when they see photos of themselves. They instantly feel like they&#8217;re not as attractive as they used to be. They see the wrinkles, the changing skin, and the body shape changes. It gives them a visual reminder that <a href=\"\/dyt\/dont-dress-your-age-dress-your-truth\/\" target=\"_blank\">the aging process has begun<\/a> and they feel unnerved by it. <\/p>\n<li><strong>&#8220;There are features of my face and body I still don&#8217;t like.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<p>91% of women struggle with both their natural features but also <a href=\"\/dyt\/the-6-body-parts-that-reveal-your-age-first\/\" target=\"_blank\">face and body features that are affected by age<\/a>. They look in the mirror and struggle with parts of their reflection. Comparison can set in. This leads to the fourth and final deepest fear&#8230;<\/p>\n<li><strong>&#8220;I still feel inadequate in some way.&#8221;<\/strong><\/li>\n<p>92% of women expressed not feeling good enough as they age. <\/p>\n<p>Read that again. 92% of women! They fear becoming insignificant. Forgotten. They&#8217;ve connected their age to their perceived lack of value. <\/p>\n<p>Truth be told, our society does not value our senior citizens and the elderly. It&#8217;s no wonder that so many women hold on tightly to the idea of youth, because they don&#8217;t want to step into a predetermined lifestyle once they reach a certain age. <\/p>\n<\/ol>\n<p>These fears are all 100% valid\u2014but they do not have to determine your aging process!<\/p>\n<h3>How I stopped worrying about my age<\/h3>\n<p>In all honesty, I am truly okay with my age. And because I&#8217;m accepting of it, that naturally slows down the aging process! <\/p>\n<p>We age ourselves much more dramatically because of the attitude\u00a0we&#8217;ve taken on from cultural inner dialogue. <\/p>\n<p>But I no longer look at aging as a negative thing that will change my life for the worst. I look forward to my future. I&#8217;m curious what my body&#8217;s potential is to stay healthy, rejuvenate, and thrive. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not the only one! <a href=\"https:\/\/my.liveyourtruth.com\/freecourse\/\" target=\"_blank\">Dressing Your Truth<\/a> Type 1 Expert, Marcy is already planning her 100th birthday party. How&#8217;s that for a fun, lighthearted outlook!
