Life in Your Years, The: Growing Old with Energy

Many people fear old age; they often see it as the beginning of the end of life. Some people even seem to think that at a certain age they will have to give up things they enjoy and become a different person, someone who is 'old'. Author Susanne O'Leary insists that it's not the years in your life that count, but the life in your years! She argues that it is possible to keep active and alert into an advanced age - all it takes is determination, a positive attitude and a little hard work. Following the same positive approach she takes in her previous book 'Look Great Feel Great for Life' she maintains that the three vital components for a long and healthy life are attitude, effort and nutrition. In her upbeat and witty style she looks at the whole picture from how to slow down the ageing process and how to keep both mind and body fit and active for life to some of the challenges which face the older person like creaking joints and aching bones, keeping the heart healthy and dealing with depression. A healthy body and a positive attitude make anybody look and feel great and achieving the right life-style is not very complicated. The most important thing to remember is that it's never too late to start. Other books by Susaanne O'Leary Look Great Feel Great for Life.
