10 Un-Sexy Things I Do To Look & Feel My BEST At 63!

Key wellness, self-care, and productivity strategies (“10 un-sexy things”)

1. Sleep position tweak (reduce visible aging + improve comfort)

   • Sleep on your back with your head elevated using a wedge pillow (plus extra regular pillows).
   • Reported benefits:
     • Fewer/decreased deep facial and chest wrinkles
     • More restful sleep (less tossing/turning; less hip/shoulder/neck soreness)
     • Less bagginess under eyes and less fluid retention
     • Less pronounced hooded eyes
     • Reduced chest wrinkle she previously got from side-sleeping

2. Morning routine upgrade: start with a 10-minute at-home treatment (no phone first)

   • Right after waking, skip immediate social/email/phone scrolling.
   • Put on an at-home red light therapy mask for 10 minutes.
   • Use the time to relax/doze and organize thoughts calmly for the day.

3. Daily eye hydration to prevent dryness (contact + postmenopause support)

   • Use hydrating eye drops twice daily consistently.
   • She credits Retaine mineral-oil-based drops with:
     • Reduced stinging/burning
     • Keeping eyes calm and comfortable, especially with contact lenses

4. Bone-health training: jump + strength work (osteopenia/osteoporosis prevention)

   • Do impact exercises (examples):
     • Heel drops, stomping, floor jumps, jump rope, box jumps, mini trampoline rebounding
   • Pair with strength training using heavier weights.
   • Wear a weighted vest for extra conditioning (practical but “not pretty”).

5. Joint protection so you can keep exercising

   • Wear knee braces during workouts/training.
   • Purpose: reduce knee aches and help maintain the ability to do jumping/rebounding.

6. Sun protection as an anti-aging + cancer-risk reduction habit

   • Sunscreen every day, year-round, on exposed areas.
   • Reapply as needed.
   • Add physical barriers:
     • Hat for outdoor time beyond ~5–10 minutes (she takes the dog out multiple times daily and hats up each time)
     • Keep stick sunscreen and lip sunscreen accessible for quick application
     • UPF gloves for driving (to reduce sun exposure through the windshield)
     • UV visor / SPF 50 option for sports outdoors
   • She also recommends Geek & Gorgeous “Zero Feel” SPF 50
     • Not labeled “sunscreen” in the U.S., but described as equivalent
     • No white cast/matte finish

7. Foot support to prevent pain and recurring problems

   • Use insoles for arch support (especially if prone to plantar fasciitis).
   • She also referenced a sleeping boot used earlier to resolve plantar fasciitis, then maintained prevention with insoles.

8. Supplements system (consistent daily health support)

   • Take a daily handful of supplements, organized by day/evening in a dedicated container.
   • Focus areas mentioned:
     • heart health, bone health, joint health, skin health
   • Note: supplements are an unregulated industry, and effectiveness varies.

9. Quick appearance maintenance: fix the back-of-head hair “pressed-in” part

   • Before leaving the house, check the back view (especially since she sleeps on her back).
   • Use a hot curling brush (or round brush + blow dryer) to add lift and smooth the pressed-in area.
   • Add light hairspray for hold.

10. Gentle but thorough face cleansing cloth routine (remove barriers)

    • Use an inexpensive washcloth nightly to:
      • remove makeup and sunscreen
      • gently exfoliate
      • especially clear residue around the eyes
    • She rotates multiple cloths:
      • use for a couple nights, air dry, then wash
    • Multi-purpose use:
      • also used to clean household items like mirrors/glass (water + cloth)
