"I did learn much regarding microbiome and shedding some thoughts I had about some diets"

I hit 52 last year after losing both my mother and father within a 3 year timespan. They were both generally healthy and were fairly active until the last few years of their lives. They both passed after living full lives, my father at 93 and my mother at 85. My father didn't retire from practicing medicine until he was 87 and I realized I still have a good 30 years of work left in me, and I wanted to make the best of it. I came to this program after exploring meditation and found Mindvalley as a way to explore numerous programs and find ones that would work for me. I decided to join the Holobody course and found the Health and Body Mastery by accident and didn't think much of it. After it was announced that graduates would also receive a certificate to continue with Holobody, I jumped at the chance to learn more before I joined a Holobody course. Honestly, my body hasn't change much. I was already at a healthy weigh and had a good diet and exercise program going. But I did learn much regarding microbiome and shedding some thoughts I had about some diets, such as long term keto and over fasting. Now I'm looking forward to joining Holobody in a few weeks and beginning a side career in helping others. I plan to focus on other veterans such as myself who are reaching middle age and finding their body isn't in the same shape it once was but they want to regain their fitness and mental acuity.
