Continuing on from our Active Aging article we published at the end of last year (https://www.lucksyardclinic.com/active-ageing/), we thought it would be fun to share the reflections and ideas of some of our patients this year, who are over 60 – our Luck’s Yard Heroes.
They inspire us each week in the clinic with their wit and life philosophy as well as telling us how they look after themselves and their health.
We would like to share their life philosophy with you all and if you would like to share your ideas we would love to hear from you.
Tone has nominated Annita von Hasselberg, a client of the clinic for many years.
