Her recommendations for optimum nutrition, exercise, and mental stimulation can halt, and even reverse, the onset of old age. The adverse effects of negative thinking about ageing are explained, and strategies for combating these self-defeating attitudes are outlined in detail. Tests to determine biological age give readers a sense of how young they are now and what needs to be done to set and achieve their goals.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis is not a book about aging or anti-aging. It is a book about growing older (growing up), which we all do from the moment we are born, and which is very different from growing old (growing down). The author proposes ten pointers to guide us on the way, and she coins a new word, SAGING (from Sage and Age) that expresses the joy of growing older and wiser.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK“The voices gathered here display incredible wit, sincerity, and generosity; we are lucky to be able to listen to them.” —Artforum If you had the opportunity to meet your eighty-year-old self, what do you think she/he would tell you? That is the question artist Susan O’Malley, who was herself to die far too young, asked more than a hundred ordinary people of every age, from every walk of life. She then transformed their responses into vibrant text-based images. From a prompt to do things that matter to your heart, to a reminder that it’s okay to have sugar in your tea, these are calls to action and words to live by—heartfelt, sometimes humorous, and always fiercely compassionate. This stirring celebration of our collective humanity unveils the wisdom we hold inside ourselves right now. “Everyone, regardless of age, can take something away from this uplifting work.” —Real Simple
