Discovering Wellness

HEALTHY LIFE BEGAN AT 57!

As people say, age is just a number and there is no age limit to working on one’s health. Neha embodied this belief when she decided to embark on her health journey at the age of 57. Inspired by her son and daughter-in-law, both wellness coaches in the WQ community, Neha committed herself to following their recommendations diligently.

Initially, the idea of engaging in cardio exercise and strength training seemed daunting to Neha. She remembered struggling with even 10 jumping jacks at the beginning. However, with persistence and dedication, she progressed remarkably. Today, she proudly performs 20 jumping jacks in three sets, a testament to her growing strength and stamina.

One of the significant challenges Neha faced was her knee pain, which made it difficult for her to sit on the ground. Through consistent exercise and proper guidance, she experienced a notable improvement in her flexibility and comfort. She can now sit on the ground with ease, a small victory that brought immense satisfaction.

Over the course of her journey, she lost 8 kg. She adopted healthy habits such as regular exercise and incorporating salads into her diet. This transformation made her feel lighter, more active and increasingly alert about her eating habits.

Neha credited her success to the unwavering support of her husband, son, daughter-in-law and the consistent guidance and training she received from the Community.

Her journey is a powerful reminder that it’s never too late to make health a priority. With determination and support, significant changes are possible at any age.

FEELING YOUNG AGAIN!

Congratulations are in order for Megha, who has made remarkable strides towards better health and well-being.
