You've all been so sweet...

I have four children. Twenty four years ago, my youngest, Ben, was ten years old when my next youngest, Khrystine, was born. At the time I had been studying aging and youthing by reading Deepak Chopra. That sounds funny now that I would have been concerned with such a thing at that age!! Anyway, I made up my mind after I had the baby that I would be 32 years old. It worked really well for quite awhile. And this is the honest truth. When I got in bed at night I would repeat the age I wanted to be in my mind. 'Saying' those thoughts I would feel my entire countenance lift. I straightened up. Even my face lifted and I felt so much younger. I really believe you can tell your body what you want it to do and it will respond. So, yes, I must reconstruct my thinking. There's been too much defeated thinking here lately. Thank you all for your kind responses.
