Have You Ever Thought of Mentoring?

Have you ever learned something important and wished someone would have taught it you earlier in your life? Most people would agree that wisdom comes with age. Mentoring is a great way to embrace the spiritual experience that comes along with aging. In the book, Mentoring Mindset, Skills and Tools, Ann Rolfe lays out a roadmap towards a successful mentorship relationship for both parties involved. Mentoring will allow you to pay it forward and be proud of the legacy you leave behind. You can do big things in your life and in others lives by unlocking your mentoring potential with these tools that you can use both in person and online.

Age-ing to Sage-ing

It’s no secret that we are living longer now than ever before. Want to know ways to fill your years with happiness instead of dread? The gift of time can be dimmed by fear of getting old. In his book, From Age-ing to Sage-ing, Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi, talks about how this extra time can be a spiritual experience if you embrace the changes that come with growing older. With decades of extra time given beyond our parenting years, we can look forward to, embrace, and love the extra experiences we can embark on. When we change our habits – we can change our lives. Starting each day with daily affirmations is a great way to fill your spirit with happiness.

Sleep and Dream Yourself to Better Health

Getting the right amount of sleep can help us age better. Want to know how that works and how to improve your sleep routine? In his book Why We Sleep, neuroscientist Matthew Walker, PhD shows us how to overcome life-threatening risks often resulting from sleep deprivation and steps you can take to improve your own. If you need something a bit stronger, a sleep aid might just do the trick! We’ve gathered our favorite sleep aids – including some amazing CBD – to help.
