Retirement isn’t just one big holiday—it’s a significant life transition.
One that determines your longevity and fulfilment as you write this final chapter.
There are four key areas of life that must be considered in great detail:
HEALTH | WEALTH | PURPOSE | CONNECTION
One nation that truly understands this, is Japan. It is no mistake that Okinawa is known as a "blue zone" and home to some of the longest living people with wisdom beyond the ages.
It is from Okinawa, that Enagic was born.
A Company that is Changing the World for the better and providing opportunities for people like us here in the Western World to experience greater levels of Health, Wealth, Purpose and Connection.
The blueprint of Longevity.
And something I am proud to share with you as both a customer and global referrer/ health advocate.
HEALTH
Aging is a process we all must endure.
However how fast or slow it happens, is up to us.
Good Health is a birthright we take for granted until we lose it. What a wake up call that is.
We all know how important Diet and Exercise is to this. But what about our Water?
Let's talk Dehydration:
Have you ever heard the saying, people aren't sick, they're just dehydrated? This is often more true than not. Did you know that the moment you feel thirsty, you're already dehydrated? When you start feeling sluggish physically and mentally, it’s because every cell and organ in our body, which is 70% water, isn't functioning properly due to lack of hydration. This can lead to serious medical conditions like kidney stones, kidney failure, UTIs, and joint and muscle damage.
Staying hydrated is crucial for many reasons. First off, it keeps your energy up and your mind sharp. Dehydration can make you feel tired and impair your concentration. If you’re active, not drinking enough water can also hinder your performance and make you feel exhausted more quickly. Hydration affects your overall health too. It can prevent headaches, dry skin, and digestive issues like constipation. Proper hydration supports your kidneys in filtering out toxins and prevents straining other organs.
Now, not all water is created equal.
Tap water - While generally considered safe, can still pose risks due to microbial contaminants, chemical pollutants like lead and pesticides, disinfection byproducts, agricultural runoff, and industrial pollution. These contaminants, if present in high enough concentrations, can lead to gastrointestinal illnesses, organ damage, increased cancer risk, and other health issues.
Bottled Water - Often peoples first choice when avoiding tap water, with the perception of it being pure and safe. However bottled water contains additional risks such as chemical leaching from plastic bottles, microbial contamination, and variability in quality and regulation. Plastic bottles can leach harmful chemicals into the water, particularly when exposed to heat or sunlight, posing potential health risks.
Additionally, some studies have found microbial contaminants in bottled water, and regulations governing its quality can vary, leading to inconsistencies in safety standards. Environmental concerns, such as plastic pollution and resource consumption, further compound the drawbacks of bottled water consumption. Unfortunately not enough people understand this and are unaware of these risks when choosing the 'healthy option'.
Kangen Water (produced by Enagic Water Ionisers) - Offers numerous health benefits. It is alkalised and antioxidant-rich, which may help neutralise acidity in the body and reduce oxidative stress. Importantly, Kangen Water is micro-clustered, meaning it has smaller water clusters that enhances hydration and absorption at the cellular level. (Up to 6X faster than tap & bottled water). The ioniser has a high-quality filtration process removing impurities and contaminants from tap water, providing truly clean and purified water. It is quite common for Kangen Water users to report improved hydration, increased energy levels, better digestion, and enhanced overall well-being.
By drinking better quality water, you can ensure that you’re not just staying hydrated, but doing so in the most effective way possible. This helps maintain your overall health and keeps you feeling your best.
As a nurse of 50 years, I have seen my fair share of preventable illness and disease. This is why when I understood the science and the benefits of Kangen Water, investing myself was a priority. The transformation experienced within my body, made it too good to keep to myself.
WEALTH
Maintaining wealth during retirement is crucial for retirees to sustain a desired lifestyle and cover expenses such as healthcare, leisure activities, and unexpected emergencies.
Something I wish I would have better understood prior to retiring, was the importance of having additional income sources, such as investments or passive / semi-passive income streams. These provide an added layer of financial security, flexibility, and peace of mind.
A study completed by the Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia (ASFA) resulted in an alarming statistic that suggests around 50% of retirees may exhaust their superannuation savings by age 70.
Getting onto this as early as possible helps to offset potential financial challenges but also allows retirees to enjoy their retirement years to the fullest.
Fortunately, when I invested in my Kangen Water machine for our Health, I was introduced to a community of global distributors who were passionate about creating Freedom in all areas of life.
I never expected to become one myself. Especially at my age. However the more health benefits I experienced myself, the more I wanted others to know about it. And if I can help someone not only improve their health but offer them an additional income stream by also sharing something they love, then Why not?
**** The only way to purchase an Enagic product, is from one of its existing customers.
Every product that is purchased, comes with a Referral ID number, with no obligation to ever use it.
Just the opportunity to do so if you feel called too. This philanthropic business model is Mr Oshiro's way of helping put back money into their customers pockets and share real testimonials, from real people.
PURPOSE
Our purpose is what makes us do do what we do, our passion, our reason to get out of bed..
If you were to ask a working person why they go to work they would most likely tell you its money, but its not always that at all.
If you are a nurse your purpose is in caring.
If you are a teacher, your purpose is to educate.
If you are an actor its to entertain.
If you are an athlete its to explore your potential.
Who hasn't met someone and guessed what they do. We hear it all the time, you must be a nurse or a teacher.
People are attracted to your energy and overall persona.
Retirement can make some feel lost, many experiencing a void in their life and missing the feeling of purpose.
But from my experience I can assure you that you don't lose all that you are, you simply need a different way.
In my case, I wanted to continue caring for people, but where I found myself was even better.
Through the Magic of Enagic, I found myself amongst a global community of people collaborating to make the world a better place. Enagic's founder has a 500year vision and is on a mission to 'Realise True Health around the Globe' while our local Australian community 'The Freedom Era' is using their referral program to help every day households to bring more Freedom in every area of their life.
And without any pressure or deadlines, we are able to contribute to this powerful mission by sharing our honest and true experience.
My passion to share about this reignited something in me that I hadn't felt since I was a little girl. I had an even bigger vision for my retirement years that encompassed all that I value. And regardless of how much money I do or don't make by sharing it, I feel so grateful for the impact I am making and the mission I get to be apart of.
Even simply being able to witness the lives being transformed by this - is truly inspiring ✨
CONNECTION
Connection is the glue that binds us and it is one of the most important aspects in our lives.
Its like a journey of discovery, you never know when a surprise meeting will create a powerful connection.
They say you become an average of the people you spend time with, and when we connect with like-minded people it breeds ideas and opens the door to opportunities.
Everyday we are connecting with others. Think about all the connections made in one day, some will have a lasting effect on us others not so much.
Why is that?
All connections have a purpose, whether its online, in person or something you see or hear that makes you reach out to that person and connect.
This is where you get to choose. Do you want to be apart of the retirees who are sitting around waiting to die, or are you going to keep LIVING. Be apart of a community who are thriving and growing
