The article I was recenty interviewed for ran in the Bradenton Herald newspaper in Florida this past weekend on the front of the Well Being section.

MORE AND MORE AWAKENING THEIR INNER CHILD
'Rejuveniles' are childlike, not childish by Tiffany St. Martin

Kim Corbin skips when the spirit moves her.

She skips around her church on Sundays, up and down the halls of her workplace and while shopping at the grocery store. Sometimes she even skips to the loo.

Most often, though, Corbin, 37, of San Francisco, skips on the treadmill while at the gym. "I love skipping to happy songs with serious runners on either side of me," she says.

Call her what you will — a clown, a jokester, a comedienne — but Corbin prefers the term rejuvenile.

It's a relatively new word coined by Christopher Noxon, who defines a rejuvenile as "anyone who has tastes or mindsets traditionally associated with people younger than themselves."

Noxon wrote a 288-page book, "Rejuvenile: Kickball, Cartoons, Cupcakes and the Reinvention of the American Grown-Up," released in June, about the phenomena.....

...Whatever stigmas used to be attached to adults who were supposed to act their age are no longer, Noxon says.

Yet when Corbin started skipping nine years ago, she was worried about what people would think. But her childlike spirit took over, and she started a national skipping club at www.iskip.com. One of the club's Head Skippers lived in Sarasota before moving to Oregon.

Skipping raises your heart rate and your spirit, Corbin says. "It's also a very innocent and positive way to challenge some of the unspoken rules of our culture that prevent us from enjoying our lives to the fullest and feeling truly free."
