  • Business owner maintains her ageless appearance with monthly facials
  • She follows an at-home 20-minute yoga workout each weekday 

Kathryn Danzey lives in Sheffield with her husband, Robert, with whom she runs health and wellness business rejuvenated.com. They have five children, Ben, 38, Lo, 35, Lucy, 31, Julia, 29, and Ross, 25, and three grandchildren. 

GROW YOUR OWN

Last summer, my husband and I took a cookery course in Siena, which inspired us to follow a Mediterranean diet at home. We also try to grow our own fruit and veg. My fitness levels have improved with all the digging.

MIDLIFE YOGA BUNNY

Every weekday, I do a 20-minute yoga session using my Rodney Yee’s Complete Yoga for Beginners DVD (you can also access his routines through a £6.25 monthly subscription at gaia.com). I have always preferred an at-home workout, even before the lockdown. I spend a lot of time hunched over my computer, so yoga helps to improve my posture.

DIY SALON GLOW

Usually I have an A-Lift facial every month (£35, 195hairlines.co.uk). It’s a non-invasive treatment where two wands, charged with micro-current technology, run over your face to stimulate collagen production and tone muscles. I’ve been doing it for three years. Until I can go back, I am relying on NCN Pro Skincare DNA Serum (£90, uk.ninthavenue.com), which really makes my skin glow.

NATURAL BOTOX

I have never had Botox. I use Frownies Facial Patches to smooth the wrinkles between my brows and on my forehead at night (£22.95, frownies.co.uk). They do make a difference — the first time I wore them, my son asked me if I’d had Botox! I wear them four to five nights a week.

COUPLES CAREER CHANGE

I’ve always worked in nutrition and my husband was an engineer. In 2003, we decided to start our own business, Rejuvenated, which formulates collagen supplements. These help keep the skin youthful from within. We always start the working day with a 40-minute dog walk on the moors.
