Introduction / Review

Article Title: Staying Young at Heart: The Hidden Key to Healthy Aging

“It is not age but the vitality of one’s inner life that counts. People who are always challenging themselves, who continue to learn and grow—they are truly young at heart.”
— Daisaku Ikeda

This powerful reflection by Daisaku Ikeda captures the essence of what it truly means to age well—not by resisting time, but by nurturing an inner life that stays vibrant, curious, and deeply engaged.

In this special feature, Owusuaa Weekly Health Magazine explores the real foundations of healthy aging—not creams, fads, or numbers—but attitude, connection, movement, and meaning.

Through the voices of Nana Owusuaa Gyimah-Addo and Berla Mundi, this article invites readers to rethink aging as a journey of continued growth. It reveals how staying young at heart is not about denying age, but about celebrating life with joy, resilience, and purpose.

Nana Owusuaa Gyimah-Addo on Health, Aging, and the Power of Wisdom

Health is a subject of growing global interest—and rightly so. At Hair Senta, I’m often struck by how well-informed our clients are about the latest medical breakthroughs and wellness trends. People come in for their hair, yes—but more and more, they’re asking deeper questions. One that comes up often is:
“How can we stay young at heart when our bodies begin to feel weak?”

It’s a powerful question—and one that reflects a universal concern. While medical science helps us understand and treat illness through research and knowledge, staying young at heart is something deeper. It’s cultivated through human wisdom—the ability to find balance in life and tap into our inner strength. When the two—medical insight and personal wisdom—work together, we are better equipped to heal, thrive, and live well.

Today, health information is everywhere—on television, social media, in newspapers and magazines. While it’s wonderful to have so much access, it can also be overwhelming. What’s relevant? What truly helps?

In truth, health is a universal human desire. Regardless of our status or wealth, health is life’s most precious gift. I recall the story of a man who rose from poverty to become one of the richest individuals in the world. Later in life, he fell seriously ill and admitted he would give up all his wealth just to be young and healthy again. He said he wouldn’t mind being poor if only he had the strength and vitality to work again. I believe most of us can deeply relate to that sentiment.

Illness is one of the most profound human struggles—it is one of the four fundamental sufferings identified in Buddhism: birth, aging, sickness, and death. In striving to overcome illness, both medicine and spirituality share the same goal: to relieve suffering and help people live more fully.

So what is the secret to living each day with energy, clarity, and purpose? In this dialogue, we’ll explore that question—not with technical jargon, but with a simple, heartfelt conversation that blends modern science with timeless wisdom.

In fact, many of our great-great-grandparents lived long, fulfilling lives—often without the help of modern medicine. While it’s true that certain illnesses had fewer cures back then, people often enjoyed better overall balance and vitality, thanks to their natural lifestyle, nutritious diets, physical labor, and strong community bonds.

Despite the lack of formal healthcare systems, they still managed to live with a sense of balance and strength. How? They relied on generational wisdom—a deep understanding of the body, nature, and community, passed down through storytelling, rituals, and lived experience.

They observed the rhythms of life and the natural world. They knew which herbs soothed pain, which foods promoted strength, and which spiritual or communal practices helped restore peace of mind. They understood the importance of rest, gratitude, physical activity, and supporting one another through life’s hardships.

Their wisdom was not written in textbooks—it was embodied in daily life. They listened to their bodies, trusted in intuition, and respected the seasons of nature and the human spirit.

This is the kind of human wisdom we refer to today—not outdated knowledge, but timeless insight into what it means to live well. When we combine that ancestral understanding with today’s medical advances, we unlock a more holistic and powerful way to care for ourselves.

They ate real, unprocessed food. They rose with the sun and rested with the moon. They moved their bodies daily—not at the gym, but through work, walking, and connection to the land. And perhaps most importantly, they had time for reflection, prayer, storytelling, and social togetherness—things that nurtured both emotional and spiritual well-being.

In many traditional communities around the world, elders lived into their 80s and 90s with sharp minds and strong bodies. Their quality of life, not just their lifespan, was something we can still learn from today.

So when we talk about “staying young at heart” and aging well, we’re not just looking to the future—we’re also drawing wisdom from the past. And in doing so, we reconnect with something deeply human: the desire to live in harmony with ourselves and the world around us.

Opening Dialogue

Berla Mundi (Host):
Good morning, good afternoon, or good evening—depending on where you’re watching from around the world. I’m Berla Mundi, and I welcome you warmly to this very special edition of the Owusuaa Weekly Health Magazine.

Today, I’m joined by a woman whose energy, creativity, and wisdom have touched lives not only in Ghana but across Africa and beyond. She’s the Founder of Hair Senta, creator of HIBS-AFRICA, co-founder of the Owusuaa Weekly Health Newsletter & Lifestyle Magazine, and the insightful author of Direction.

Her work beautifully bridges the world of beauty, wellness, and ancestral wisdom. Please help me welcome Nana Owusuaa Gyimah-Addo—affectionately known as Gwen.

Nana Owusuaa (Gwen):

Thank you so much, Berla. It’s truly a joy and privilege to be here with you—and to share in this important dialogue with such a wide and diverse global audience. Health is universal. It cuts across language, borders, and beliefs. And I believe today’s conversation will truly resonate with many hearts.

Theme of the Day: A Healthy Life is a Creative Life

Berla Mundi:

Gwen, your work through Hair Senta has transformed the beauty industry—but more recently, you’ve also become a voice in health and wellness. Why do you think your clients are becoming more curious about health—and not just hair?

Nana Owusuaa:

That’s such a great question, Berla. Yes, people come to Hair Senta for hair care—but increasingly, they want deeper conversations. They ask things like:
“How can I stay energized?”
“How can I age gracefully?”
“What habits truly make a difference?”

It tells me something profound: our generation wants not just to look good, but to feel whole. People are seeking alignment—between mind, body, and purpose. That’s why I always say, a healthy life is a creative life. When you’re well, your energy flows—you show up more fully at work, in relationships, and in your dreams.

Blending Modern Health and Ancestral Wisdom

Berla Mundi:

One of the things that makes your perspective so unique is your deep appreciation for ancestral wisdom. In a world full of medical tech and data, why is it still important to remember the ways of our elders?

Nana Owusuaa:

Absolutely, Berla. Our ancestors had incredible knowledge—passed down through generations, through herbs, lifestyle, rituals, and community.

They didn’t have fitness trackers or prescription pills, yet they lived long and vibrant lives. They ate real food. They worked with their hands. They rose with the sun, slept with the moon. And importantly, they listened to their bodies.

This kind of wisdom isn’t outdated—it’s timeless. And when we blend it with today’s science, we unlock something powerful and holistic.

Your Book “Direction” Touched on Purpose & Vitality

Berla Mundi:

In your book Direction, you write beautifully about living with intention. Do you see a connection between purpose and health?

Nana Owusuaa:

Oh, very much so. I believe the purpose is medicine. When we wake up each day with meaning—whether that’s raising a family, building a business, teaching, or simply growing—it adds years to our life and life to our years.

Purpose gives you resilience. It helps you push through stress, illness, or fatigue. It reminds you that you matter. That you’re here for a reason.

The Wellness Playbook: Staying Young at Heart

Berla Mundi:

Let’s shift to some practical takeaways. In this month’s edition of your magazine, you share a Wellness Playbook for staying mentally and physically youthful. Can you walk us through it?

Nana Owusuaa:
With pleasure. It’s six simple yet powerful principles:

Stay Curious – Learn something new every week. Curiosity keeps your brain young.
Build Connections – Meaningful relationships protect your heart and reduce stress.
Stay Active – Move daily. It doesn’t have to be the gym—walk, dance, garden.
Be Present – Practice mindfulness. Be where your feet are.
Feed Your Brain – Nourish your mind with good food, good books, and positive thoughts.
Laugh Often – Joy is healing. Laughter literally boosts your immune system.

When you follow these habits, aging becomes less about years and more about vitality.

Client Stories & Global Relevance

Berla Mundi:

You also feature real-life stories from Hair Senta clients who’ve undergone incredible wellness transformations. What are some of the common threads you see in those stories?

Nana Owusuaa:
One word: empowerment.

Many of these women started by simply taking ownership of their health—whether through changing their diet, managing stress, or finding supportive communities.

And what’s incredible is that once they start healing on the inside, you can see it on the outside. Their skin glows. Their confidence rises. It’s not just transformation—it’s liberation.

Final Reflections: Staying Young at Heart

Berla Mundi:
Our cover story is titled

“Staying Young at Heart: The Hidden Key to Healthy Aging.” What does that phrase mean to you, personally?

Nana Owusuaa:

To me, being young at heart means staying engaged with life..It means you’re still curious, still dreaming, still loving deeply. It’s not about resisting age—it’s about embracing each stage of life with grace and joy.

And yes, health plays a big role. But even more so, it’s about your attitude. Your willingness to grow. To forgive. To start again.

Final Word to the World

Berla Mundi:

Before we wrap up, Gwen, what’s one message you’d like to leave with our global audience?

Nana Owusuaa:
My message is this: Your health is not a trend. It’s your birthright.

Don’t wait for illness to start valuing it. Begin today—with small steps, deep breaths, nourishing food, and meaningful conversations like this one.

Because when you care for yourself deeply, everything else in your life becomes more vibrant, more possible, more you.

Theme: “A Healthy Life is a Creative Life“

Berla Mundi (Host):

Nana Owusuaa, earlier you shared your Wellness Playbook—six guiding principles for staying young at heart. Could you walk us through them more deeply, and why each one matters, especially in today’s world?

Nana Owusuaa:

Of course, Berla. These six principles are like daily anchors—simple, but deeply effective when practiced intentionally. Let me take them one by one.

1. Stay Curious

Learn something new every week.

Curiosity is the exercise of the mind. When you stay curious—whether it’s reading about a new topic, exploring a hobby, or just asking questions—you give your brain a reason to stretch and grow.

It keeps your mind agile and prevents stagnation. I often encourage people, especially older adults, to challenge themselves intellectually. Learn a new dish, a phrase in a different language, or a new way of seeing the world. That spark of discovery adds color to our lives.

2. Build Connections

Meaningful relationships protect your heart and reduce stress.

Loneliness has been called a new silent killer. Studies show it’s as harmful as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.

So yes, stay connected. Call your parents. Spend time with your children. Make new friends and check in on old ones. When you build emotional bonds, you’re not just adding joy to your life—you’re strengthening your immune system, lowering blood pressure, and boosting overall resilience.

3. Stay Active

Move daily. It doesn’t have to be the gym—walk, dance, garden.Movement is medicine. You don’t have to run marathons. It’s about consistency, not intensity.Walk to the shop instead of driving. Dance while you clean. Play with your grandchildren. Just keep moving. Motion increases circulation, reduces inflammation, and releases mood-enhancing chemicals. It also reminds your body that it’s alive.

4. Be Present

Practice mindfulness. Be where your feet are.This one is about presence—not just physically, but emotionally and mentally.Being present means listening when someone speaks, enjoying your food instead of scrolling through your phone, breathing deeply during a stressful moment. Mindfulness lowers anxiety and allows you to experience life in real-time—not as a blur.And perhaps more importantly, it allows you to truly be there for others. In a world of distractions, that is a rare and beautiful gift.

5. Feed Your Brain

Nourish your mind with good food, good books, and positive thoughts.The brain needs nourishment—not just from nutrition, but from inspiration.Eat clean, whole foods. Read uplifting stories. Limit negativity in your environment. Remember, what we consume mentally can either empower or poison us. Positive thinking is not naïve—it’s an act of courage and discipline in a chaotic world.

6. Laugh Often

Joy is healing. Laughter literally boosts your immune system. Never forget to laugh. Joy is not just a luxury—it’s medicine. Laughter reduces stress hormones, increases pain tolerance, and strengthens immunity. But beyond biology, joy connects us. A shared laugh can heal relationships, lift the spirit, and transform even the darkest days. When you follow these habits daily, aging becomes less about years—and more about vitality. It becomes about how fully and creatively you show up in life.

Berla Mundi:

Beautifully said. And I must admit, it’s something we all need to hear—especially in times where there’s so much pressure to look young, rather than feel young.And Nana, we’ve also noticed something across all social classes—not only everyday Ghanaians, but even our politicians and Members of Parliament are turning to “health foods,” new diets, and wellness routines. Everyone wants to be healthy

Nana Owusuaa (Gwen):

Absolutely, Berla. Health is a universal desire. No matter your background—rich or poor, powerful or ordinary—health remains the most precious asset.

There was once a man who rose from poverty to become one of the wealthiest people in the world. Later in life, he fell seriously ill and said something unforgettable:

“I would give up all my wealth to be young and healthy again.” He said he wouldn’t mind being poor again—if only he had the strength and vitality to live fully. That struck a deep chord with me, and I believe many of us can relate.It’s also a reminder to our leaders: illness is not selective. It affects everyone. It is one of the four universal sufferings described in Buddhist thought—birth, aging, sickness, and death.So yes, I believe our leaders should share in this concern with the people.

Health is a shared human experience. That means investing in a healthcare system where every Ghanaian, from Accra to Zebilla, has access to quality care. No one should have to choose between medicine and food, between treatment and dignity.

Berla Mundi:

Very true. So let me ask you this:
What is the secret to living fully and vigorously, day after day—despite the challenges of modern life?

Nana Owusuaa:

It’s a wonderful question, Berla—and I think the answer lies in balance: We must bring together the strengths of medical science—its research, its innovation—with the wisdom of our ancestors, who lived in harmony with nature, with their bodies.

Berla Mundi:

What a powerful message. Thank you, Nana Owusuaa. This conversation has touched my heart- and I know our readers around the world will be just as inspired.
