The phase of life where I had no chronic health issues. On the whole, my health has been pretty good. I am still very active in my late forties. There is no activities I truly love that I have had to give up due to health reasons: I am noticing though that slowly bud steadily everything is getting a little more difficult and my list of mostly minor chronic health issues continues to grow each year.
I miss not worrying about if I will sleep well or how much is too much for my ankle? Why my headaches take forever to go away? Why does my knee hurt at random times? Why isn’t my back pain going away?
I still rarely get sick which is nice, but I am definitely starting to feel my mortality a bit. I think being around kids all the time though keeps me relatively young at heart, which I believe is really an important key to aging well. I have a smoothie and mushroom coffee in the morning everyday, take my vitamins and supplements and hope that this will be enough along with regular exercise to live long enough to accomplish most of my goals.
