“And this is what happens. Time slows down and you feel oneness with all of it. I know people look for that in their meditations and that's really cool. I would love to get it every time I'm moving and exercising and Rev6 helps keep people in that micro flow state.”

“The movements are the result of the design of our body. The exercises are all full body and take into consideration things like the small muscles, which is really contribute to your core. I referred to the small muscles like your lower abs, the muscles of your spine deep in your hip rotators, even your your pelvic floor, your hands and your feet.”

“The fascia is really the connector between the nerve and the muscle, and the fascia is so interconnected that every cell is surrounded by fascia, it happens so quickly and it's so dynamic and it's so malleable, so fast.”

Key Moments
“I have the nickname the Queen of pain. I'm known for being tough as nails, gritty, all that kind of stuff. But people are always surprised when they meet me. I am quite soft and sensitive and caring, and they don't expect that.”

"I feel like probably the biggest metric that has been helping me is learning how much stress the body is absorbing, even when you're not working out. Whether its a stressful job, or you're thinking and ruminating on something, the body is taking that almost as workout stress."

"Real diligent self-care. We used to think that that was reserved for Olympians and world champions–athletes have been doing this stuff for a while. Now it's accessible to everybody. And people are realizing, oh, if I treat myself like world champion, I'm going to perform like a world champion in whatever arena I'm in. And it feels great to feel good, doesn't it?"

"Astronauts do the same thing. They go through the routine of knowing what's going to happen so that when something unexpected happens, you fall back on what you know, and you don't have to be an astronaut or someone riding your bike in Alaska to take that kind of training to everyday life."

“I think the whole conversation about longevity is really interesting and really important. And I always go back and forth in my kind of reaction to everything in the wellness world.

"The best models will come from integrating multiple data sets. But for the sake of time, convenience and price, we're trying to consolidate all into just epigenome methylation. We think it's uniquely suited to do that."

"So you can actually get the test back and say, where do I rank among the true diagnostic cohort for my glucose? Is it higher or lower than average? Is my fattening higher."

“What you want to do is stop the damage, right? Stop eating the really bad stuff. What is the really bad stuff? Well, probably anything you get in a fast food restaurant falls into that category.”

“It's just a natural progression. The ten year old grows into the 15 year old. You don't say to the 15 year old, oh well, I see you've reinvented your ten year old self. You would never say that, right? So why would someone say like: “oh, you've reinvented yourself as something?”

In this week's episode of the SuperAge podcast, we're joined by Lyn Slater, Ph.D. Also known as the Accidental Icon, she is an author, former social worker, and professor. Along with her new book How To Be Old, Lyn discusses how her career in social work–dealing with trauma and violence–led her to seek creative outlets, which ultimately inspired her transition to fashion blogging. Lyn emphasizes her aim to explore fashion sociologically, as a tool for identity expression and subversion, rather than focusing on age. She then recounts her unexpected rise to fame via a Valentino ad, and how it shifted her identity from a person to a brand. As an influencer, she experienced a loss of creativity and control, leading to dissatisfaction. The pandemic provided a turning point, allowing her to reconnect with her passion for writing and reshape her engagement on social media. Lyn's insights on idealized aging, its relation to privilege, and the need for more inclusive and realistic portrayals of aging are thought-provoking. She advocates for aging as a creative practice, using her experiences to encourage others to embrace risks and accept life's unpredictable nature, regardless of age.

Key Moments
“Being old is a transaction between a mind, a body and a context.”

“I think part of why it worked was because I was an ordinary woman, and so a lot of ordinary people saw me and said, wow, if she could do that, maybe I could too. And so that was the time I was getting like 100,000 followers in a day. And my phone was going crazy.”

“The difference between when all those things happened to me during my 20s is that I probably had a toolbox, a toolbox that had a hammer in the nail, and but at 70, I have so many skills, so many experiences, so many assets that I can bring to the challenges of age.”
