In this episode I explain how I chose the name of this podcast, and discuss several tools to slow down the aging, wrinkle, process.
from Hydration, movement,  meditation, sleep, oils, teas, and herbs.

I read a Meditation titled "Wrinkles".

Lines on the face, tattoos of aging.
Life is proved upon the body
Like needle -jabs from a blind machine.

The older one gets, the more on is conscious of Aging. We can barely remember childhood innocence and exuberance.
We are surprised by the youthful vitality and unmarked face when we see earlier photos of ourselves. When we look in the mirror, we reluctantly acknowledge "the aging mask" . It seems there is no escaping the marks of life. 
Every experience that we have, everything that we do and think is registered upon us a surly as the steady embroidery of a tattoo artist. But to a large degree, the pattern and picture that will emerge is up to us. If we go to a tattoo artist, it is we who select the picture. In life , it is we who select what we will become by the actions we perform. There is no reason to go through life thoughtlessly, to let accidents shape us. That is like allowing oneself  to be tattooed by a blind man. How can you help but turn out old and ugly?
Wether we emerge beautiful or ugly is our sole responsibility.
