Yesterday I went to visit one of my favorite people to follow on Instagram @10secondswithgma . Grandma Pat’s videos provide me with endless joy and inspiration and I was thrilled to finally get to spend some quality time with her. After taking some photos, Patsy told me that over the last few years she has been learning new techniques to deal with stress and anxiety. She meditates, does yoga, and practices mindfulness. Grandma Pat is about to turn 85 and she feels more empowered than ever to share some of her healing methods with the world. Check out the video above and make sure and visit her Instagram page for a daily dose of inspiration and fun.

The It Girl 1924

I always love finding new inspirational people to follow on Instagram, especially if they are of the Advanced Style set. I’ve been following @theitgirl1924  for a while and yesterday we finally got the chance to meet for a glamorous street style photo shoot near her granddaughter’s salon. Vernel is about to turn 93-years-old and her advice to those younger than her is, “Work hard, have a goal, enjoy yourself, it’s later than you think.” Who are some of your favorite bloggers and instagrammers over 60?

A Story of Love and Friendship by Britt Kanja

Intuition is an exact science and your energy introduces you –
before you even speak !
From the moment I eyed Günther, it was clear:
Since Eons we have been coupled and trusting one another …
We felt drawn towards each other,
moved by the inner and outer beauty of the other …
I immediately sensed, here is someone in harmony with his temper and his awareness.
A spirit that emanates lightness and love.
A little later Günther said: wonderful that we met each other. It feels like a miracle that you appeared in my life!
The door was widely open and
I was expecting you!

Our love for life, our light-heartedness, solidarity, trust, thoughtfulness, our love to dance and people-connecting attitude led us into this enchanting friendship.
Mutual Inspiration is a gift for everyone, for all of those who are involved …
if the genius of the One fosters the genius of the other …
From heart to heart develops a powerful magnet …
Anything is possible, when the heart, mind and soul go on a journey together …

Remaining two, our mind becomes one …
A state of mind of happiness, contentment, and enthusiasm.
Every new day presents unexpectedly beautiful moments
if one becomes discouraged, whispers the other „you can do it”!
We rejoice in the happiness of the other –
In the consciousness of having friends and of being a friend’s friend …
Like two telepaths, we send a smile of the mind to the world …

Like every tree dresses itself with joy in blossoms —
we are drinking from the source of sounds and colors
and celebrating life inside out …

!!! WE MAKE LOVE GREAT AGAIN !!!- Britt Kanja
