Aging is a biological and natural; anyone who denies aging needs to work on acceptance. But it is also normal to feel scared and go into denial about your age. This happens mostly in the case of women as they are more conscious about their beauty and age. Also, as women age differently than that of men, physically and emotionally, so their way of coping with age is also entirely different.

Women’s body is much more complex than men, so their changes are much more visible. They also go through some major emotional changes; taking an action towards their career, making responsible decisions about their love or married life, being more responsible towards their lifestyle, and recognizing and eliminating toxic people from their lives are some of the things they implement in life. They tend to learn from their past mistakes and take much more responsible decisions. Their perspective towards life changes and they start to make a shift from the phase of experimenting toward settling down.

Apart from these positive changes, insecurities also start to sink in. If women do not accept these changes in life, negative emotions start to take over their life and problems may arise. In order to avoid these problems, women need to learn the art of acceptance in their lives. By accepting these changes, women age much more gracefully and with dignity.

Once you cross your 30’s, you will definitely go through changes in your body as well. But if you perfect the way you cope with age and alter your lifestyle for the good, then these changes will not affect you drastically.

Following are some of the major body changes that women go through in their 30’s and some solutions to get over and handle these problems well:

• You start to gain weight:

As you grow older, the functions of your body start to slow down as compared to when you were younger. Your metabolism rate also slows down which eventually leads to weight gain. It is very difficult to lose weight once you cross your 30’s. To keep yourself healthy and fit, it is important that you learn how to keep your metabolic rate in control. You should plan a healthy workout routine to stay active. Taking a healthy and controlled diet is more important than being on fad diets. Drinking sufficient water and avoiding excessive alcohol also helps in keeping you young and fit.

• Your fertility starts to drop:

Your chances of getting pregnant seem to lower down once you cross the age of 35. Although you can still expect a baby before you reach your menopause the percentage seems to lower down with every passing year as the quality and quantity of eggs seem to deteriorate with age. You can take natural measures to increase your fertility and you should also visit your gynecologist for proper medication.

• Your skins start to change:

As you grow older, you will notice how your face is losing its natural glow and shine. You will start to notice wrinkles and pigmentation on your face. It is important to set up a good skin care regime to maintain your healthy skin. Dr. Bill Andrews from Siorai says that because skin starts losing its elasticity when you are in your thirties, it is never too early to start using an anti-wrinkle cream. Eating nutritious food and taking proper skin treatments can also help you to protect and retain its glow.

• Your energy deteriorates:

It is natural that your energy levels will go down as your age goes up. It is important to start taking the required supplements to improve your energy level and stay active. Consult your doctor before you start taking these supplements. Eating fruits and vegetables will give you proper nutrition, vitamins, and minerals, which will help you to stay energetic.

• You get more stressed

Handling so many responsibilities at home and office can be a burden at times. Such burdens can add to your stress levels and can lead to many major health problems like depression and blood pressure. These problems are hard to get rid of so it is better to control your stress levels at the right time. No matter how busy you are, you should take some time out to relax and yourself. Getting a spa, going on a holiday, or shopping with a friend are some ideas which have proved to be amazing stress relievers for some women.

• Your hangover worsens:

If you expect to party all through the night just like when you were 25, then you should think again. The hangover will affect you more deeply than it did before. So be careful while you party; drink only what you can handle. Also, keep yourself hydrated the next day otherwise your exhaustion will show on your face.

• You will spot grey hairs:

Your age is visible not only on your face but also on your hair. Grey hair starts to develop and it is quite natural that anybody would start freaking out. It is very rare that women accept this change happily. It is usually dealt with by visiting the salon and getting the hair colored. Apart from applying these chemicals, you should also try homemade remedies to stop the grey hair from increasing. Your hair is an essential part of your appearance and your confidence so you should make sure to take proper care of them.

• Your breasts start to change:

As your hormones change after a certain age, your breasts also experience a certain change in its appearance. The size of your breasts can fluctuate and you will also notice stretch marks on your breast’s skin. It can be disappointing when you find out that they are not as firm as before. You should also check for any soreness or lumps in your breasts and get them checked if any.

• Your immunity starts to drop:

Your immunity starts to drop as you age. It is better that you alter your lifestyle and eating habits to improve your immunity. You should avoid excessive drinking and smoking if you want to lead a healthy life. Drink more water and eat such food which gives you nutrition and strengthens your immunity.
