EXERCISE FOR MENOPAUSE - 101 STROLLING After forty-four years of practice and helping tens of thousands optimize their health, I can say without a shadow of a doubt that a 30-minute stroll in nature five times a week is the best exercise for optimizing hormones and increasing lifespan and health span. And it also helps you lose weight when you are in your "Third Act" of life. Do you need some evidence? Have you ever studied the Blue Zones? A Blue Zone is a geographic area where people live longer and healthier lives than the rest of us. Let me ask you a thought-provoking question. "What percentage of the blue zone population goes to a gym?" Did that question provoke thought? Their primary form of exercise comes in the form of leisurely walking. If you want a long, healthy life, WALK LEISURELY! "Above all, do not lose your desire to walk: every day I walk myself into a state of well-being and walk away from every illness; I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it. Even if one were to walk for one's health and it were constantly one station ahead—I would still say: Walk!
Besides, it is also apparent that in walking one constantly gets as close to well-being as possible, even if one does not quite reach it—but by sitting still, and the more one sits still, the closer one comes to feeling ill. Health and salvation can be found only in motion... if one just keeps on walking, everything will be all right."
—Soren Kierkegaard (the first existentialist philosopher)

This Week's Us-ie Vicky and I rented a beach house in Pacifica, CA, this weekend and invited three of our children, three of our grandchildren, and friends to a festival called Fog Fest. It's a tradition for us to attend. It was a great time. As you can see from the picture, there was no fog on Friday, but it made its entrance, big time, on Saturday.

I have practiced hormone, weight, health, and mind optimization for over forty-five years. I retired 9 years ago; at least, that is what I thought. When I retired, my wife and I owned and operated seven medical clinics specializing in hormone and weight optimization. As we enter our pauses (menopause and andropause), our hormones become disrupted, causing us to gain weight, suffer from the inability to lose the extra weight, sleeping disorders, hormonally induced anxiety and depression, loss of interest in being intimate, and lose our motivation to be social. Our internal chemistry, our hormones, governs how we feel, look, live, and think.
