My sister was once told by a so-called social worker that since she was blind and over 40 she could no longer learn anything. Thankfully, she has regained her sight and, of course, learns something new every day, even at the tender young age of 70. I'm 71-1/2 years YOUNG and fully intend to make it over the century mark. Since I'm now an almost full-time writer, I have to learn new things constantly and apply what I learn to what I write about.
One thing that has helped me more than anything else is a book by Dr. Wm. Davis, titled Wheat Belly. Since I've developed spinal stenosis and spinal arthritis, exercising is virtually out of the question. Also, both of my rotator cuffs are damaged, causing intense pain on any attempt to exercise.
DESPITE that, I have lost over 80 pounds in the past few months (starting in late April) and have slightly over 40 to go to get back to my "fighting weight."
On my blog, bevmar.wordpress.com, I concentrate mostly on the dangers of genetically modified frankenfood. The Federal Death Administration (FDA) has NO TESTS TO CHECK FOR HUMAN RESPONSE TO GMO FOODS! They rely entirely on the chemical companies to tell them that their crud is compatible with human life.
Well...NO, that is not true. Breast cancer in men is increasing because of the estrogen in the beef they eat and the poultry they consume. Girls are entering puberty early as are boy because of GROWTH hormones in most of the animal products INCLUDING EGGS!
Since switching to organic ONLY, my sister, my niece and myself have become noticiably thinner AND our blood tests have never been better.
Since cancers take advantage of the growth hormones in the stuff people eat...I'll not draw any conclusions but methinks it makes sense. We buy ONLY grass fed beef, buffalo and chicken as well as free range eggs.
Take care...

Here's a little more about me. I have been depressed most of my life. Even as a child, I remember feeling sad and wondering about what would happen if I died. Very introverted only child with a fairly dysfunctional mom and dad. Spent teen years and early adulthood engaging in very risky behavior and contemplating suicide fairly regularly.
Fast forward to 54 yo. Diagnosed with several sleep apnea (LOVE my CPAP) and a wonderful psychiatrist; I am in treatment and on a path to find my true self. It's never to late to have a happy childhood!
Love to you all on your journeys!

Thanks for the invitation. Loved the talk. I am pretty ambivalent about playing games. Don't get into the competition, focus on winning, find "strategy" boring. Not sure why. However Super Better is a game I can play with myself. I often use self-talk to stay focused. Usually, tho, the self-talk is negative. But now I can use this framework and the inherent goal of adding years to my life!
Actually, I just want a happier life. More peace, serenity, love. Don't want to live to be 100 if the last 10 years are spent infirm, alone, depressed. "Paid is inevitable, suffering is optional."
Thanks for starting this conversation. I hope to hear more from you and others about this.

During my last year in high school, it was suggested that somehow I had cheated on my SATS. As God is my witness, I have NEVER cheated on anything. I had to retake the tests with a proctor in front of me during the whole thing. My score improved. The powers that were asked how I could do so well when my grade average indicated that I couldn't POSSIBLY achieve those scores. Why?
So, I told them: "You people have bored the hell out of me for my entire school experience. You assume that everyone learns at the same rate so you cater to the lowest possible denominator. So I had gaps in my learning. When I was told that 1 plus 1 was 2, I GOT IT. Then it was repeated and repeated over and over again so I tuned it out. Then I heard that 2 + 1 was 3. What in dickens was a 3? I'd been tuned out when the new material was presented.
My physics teacher attempted to flunk me because I had the gall to read the entire book over a weekend. I was fascinated! Still am. That was, and probably still is, the mentality of some teachers. Mind you, I started elementary school when I was four because I turned 5 prior to the end of the 1945. No advanced classes back then, eh?
To make a long story short, they put me into an accelerated semester that lasted a month. I aced all of my exams. Had I not flunked gym, I wouldn't have had to spend an extra year in high school. Yeah, I flunked gym because dodge ball really meant "Get Bev."
My sincere prayers and thoughts go out to you; you CAN not just survive, you can THRIVE!

As a teacher I am all too aware of your experience and I am sorry for your suffering, physical and mental. Those of us with even a little bit of "power" can all too easily misuse it. I need to be reminded of students like you to keep me on my "secret mission": to make my classroom the place where learning happens; not memorization of facts, not rote, lock-step pedagogy. I believe the human brain craves new experiences and challenges. Each in her own way. My goal is nothing short of showing each of my students their own path to continuous growth and happiness.
Peace,

Then it occurred to me that Mel Tillis has a speech impairment yet sings beautifully. "He must use a different part of his brain to do that! It has to do with rhythm!" I opened my mouth and said, quite clearly and distinctly "A flea and a fly in a flue were imprisoned, so what could they do? Said the fly 'let us flee,' said the flea, 'let us fly,' so they flew through a flaw in the flue."
The nurse who was watching me in ICU dropped her tray! The stroke made walking neigh unto impossible. Again...RHYTHM! So I tried dancing! Yup, it worked!
After reading "Wheat Belly" by Dr. Wm. Davis, I tackled the most serious attempt to lose weight in my life. My will power has so increased that since May, 2012, I have dropped 83 pounds; today is 7.21.12. I hope this is permissible; I have a blog at bevmar.wordpress.com that describes Dr. Davis' book and how quickly I lost the weight that is coming off of me. I literally have NOTHING to wear! Thank heavens for scrubs, else I'd not be able to go out in public!
To Jane, may you continue to thrive and live a healthy 120 years. You have no idea of how much you have done and how much MORE you will do with a copy of your marvelous talk.

Oh, I was walking, talking and, of course, working. Most doctors do not have the foggiest idea of what the human brain is capable of. I have chronic pain that I deal with using hypnoanalgesia. I've become so adept at doing it that I can stop pain in less than 3 to 4 seconds, just by using my brain.
I MUST live over 100 years because I have SO many doctors to see get buried. No, I do not hate them, nor have I sued any of the doctor who messed up; all that would do is besmirch good doctors who made errors like any other human being. I expect the world to be perfect ten days after "I" am perfect.
May you continue to grow, heal and prosper.

Goggling is not just a gerund anymore . I earn more money doing research for others because either they don't own a computer or know how to really USE Google correctly than I make writing articles.
BTW, Kat, that was my nickname for awhile because I landed on my feet each time I had a serious ailment, but now they call me "Timex" because I take a licking and keep on ticking. I am with you, I'd love to meet Jane; I've used the software in my head to cure myself and I would love to learn much more of her theories.
