What I Re-learned Today is Something That Can Help You Greatly – I Now Stay Warmer in Cold Weather and Cooler in Hot Weather!
I’d almost forgotten what a difference finding my way toward health made – in terms of my ability to stay warm in cold weather!
The temperature for the past two days in New York City was much lower than it usually is for early November. Guest what? Not only didn’t I freeze, – as I would have from my teenage years forward until I got myself healthy by doing the kind of research I talk about in my book, “Fit and Fabulous From Fifty Forward!” – I, actually enjoyed the weather. I was totally comfortable and took a long walk, without feeling at all uncomfortable.
I purposely didn’t put on a heavy faux fur coat I own because I wanted to test my increased ability to function in the cold as a result of eating and exercising properly for my body and my system. By the way I don’t wear “real fur” because I’m not always certain the animals are treated properly. Today I wore a wool coat that is warm while being quite lightweight. I’d bought it about 25 years ago. I didn’t wear boots, etc. I wore the sandals over the same lightweight silk knee socks that I also wear in the summer. I wore a hat. However, it wasn’t a hat that ties around my neck. It was a beret.
I loved the feeling of the cool air on my skin. Granted, it was a beautiful and clear day. I did see many people clutching themselves and looking very cold and wearing heavy hats with wool scarves over the hats and looking down to keep nay breeze from their face.
I suggest that everyone does the research about their own body so that they can improve the way their body and system deals with different weather conditions. I believe YOU can do it!
