Summary: Aging Is Not Inevitable
Comment: For many, aging is like an unwelcome guest! Behaviors that at first seem charming, even endearing, quickly become annoying, obnoxious, and even, at times, unbearable. Aging steals the wisdom and goodness we have won through the timeless practice of trial and error. Just on the verge on getting it right (finally), some oldsters become as children. This time, they have no adulthood to look forward to.
Should we accept such a fate gracefully? Author Barbara Morris says no. She believes there is plenty we can all do, starting today, to persuade the #$%^&* ducks of aging to nest in someone else's backyard. In a delightful, conversational tone, Morris, a registered pharmacist, offers solutions in three important areas: health, retirement, and attitude.
Morris suggests that a healthy lifestyle is a great defense against aging. Through her own experiences in her pharmacy, she has come to believe that over-medication creates some of the ills of aging. She offers common-sense solutions in the areas of diet, exercise and life-style choices to create a life where growing older does not equate to aging.
The life of the retiree is not for Morris. She continues to contribute to the community around her as a practicing pharmacist and as a productive author and lecturer. She believes the choice to retire may in itself contribute to aging and that remaining active and employed will help keep us young.
Perhaps her most important contribution is that Morris tackles attitudes as key players in aging. How many times have you excused a lapse of memory as a "senior moment?" Or avoided learning a new skill because "I'm too old?" For that matter, how many times has a physician told you to expect certain (unpleasant) changes because "you're getting older"? Morris makes the case that changing our attitudes will change our outcomes and Put Old on Hold.
Her photo on the book's back cover shows a woman who looks at least 20 years younger than her chronological age. In person, she's even younger. With results like these, you know she's on to something significant.
I'm on my third reading of Boomers Really Can Put Old on Hold. I find something new - something I'm sure she put there just for me - each time I read it. This is an important book. Get it, read it, and reread it. You can, and you should, Put Old on Hold.
