Doing Less Gets Better Results After 50 (Here's Why)

Описание: Trying harder doesn’t always improve your health after 50. In this video, we explore why doing less can support nervous system regulation, energy, and healing—and why pushing harder may be keeping you stuck.

If you’ve noticed that effort doesn’t produce the same results it once did, you’re not imagining it.

After 50, many people find that pushing harder leads to more fatigue, more frustration, and less progress. What often gets missed is how much your nervous system influences energy, recovery, weight regulation, and overall health in midlife.

This isn’t a video about giving up or lowering standards. It’s about understanding why your body may be asking for a different approach now—and how safety, regulation, and recovery play a bigger role than force.

If rest feels uncomfortable, if slowing down triggers guilt, or if you’ve been wondering why “trying harder” isn’t working anymore, this conversation will resonate.
