Hi girlfriends! I read a new book this past week and wanted to share it with you.
What's AGE Got to Do With It, by Robin McGraw (better known as Dr. Phil's wife), is a great read for any woman of any age. At the age of 55, Robin wants to share a few things she's learned about accepting her age and being the best she can be. Robin Includes 9 Chapters in this friendly-read, including What's AGE, FITNESS, NUTRITION, SKIN CARE, HORMONES, HAIR, MAKEUP, FASHION, AND FAITH got to do with it?
To be honest, my initial reaction to the title of this book was that I'm only 37 and this may not be a good fit for me and the current issues I'm facing as a woman. However, I was quickly drawn into the sincerity of her words that became a source of motivation for me to be my personal best at any age. I believe that this book is extremely appropriate for even younger women as well, since it gives incredible assistance in areas that all women deal with on a regular basis. In addition, it will help a younger woman prepare for what is to come one day soon. If we take care of ourselves and build good habits now, our "aging" process will be much easier to handle and more enjoyable for ourselves and those around us!
This book touches on a few areas that may seem frivolous in the real scheme of life. Robin consults with experts in the areas of skin care, make-up and fashion, as well as her own personal experiences and preferences in these areas. She takes time however, to show us how our outside self can be a reflection of our inside spirit. True beauty starts from within and if your inner-soul isn't at peace, your outside can reflect that. Further, small changes in these areas of our lives can help bolster our confidence as a women.
Most importantly, the last chapter, on faith, is inspirational as Robin shares her story of coming into a relationship with Jesus and how ultimately, this is where she finds her peace at any age. Without this basic foundation, nothing else matters. This book would be a great book to share with a girlfriend who doesn't know Christ!
