Finding Love After 40


Book Description

Around the age of 40, something simply seems to shift. If we¿re married, we may ask ourselves who we truly are and if we want to stay with our mate for the long haul; if we¿re not married, we may have the sense that we¿d better get moving, especially if we want to have a family. And what about those who have long passed 40? Those who have gone through divorce or losing a spouse and still want to believe that love is possible later in life?Author Belinda Busteed Burum, herself a hopeless romantic, set out to prove that true love is possible at any age, that we don¿t have to settle for less than our heart¿s desire. Through conducting numerous interviews, reading scores of books and blogs, and speaking to experts, she sought to learn the secrets of ¿those who got it right, even if by accident.¿ From thrice-divorced singles who found love online, to couples falling in love in their 80s and 90s, the stories in this book corroborate that our path to the Promised Land of love is often circuitous¿involving life experience, self-inquiry, and relationships that don¿t work out quite as we envision.In witnessing the simple yet profound wisdom within real stories of ordinary people, Finding Love After 40 will give you hope that love is possible. And if you¿re already in a fulfilling relationship, you will enjoy reading other people¿s love stories and smile, because you already know that it¿s never too late to enjoy the magic of love.

Life Reimagined


Book Description

A dynamic and inspiring exploration of the new science that is redrawing the future for people in their forties, fifties, and sixties for the better—and for good. There’s no such thing as an inevitable midlife crisis, Barbara Bradley Hagerty writes in this provocative, hopeful book. It’s a myth, an illusion. New scientific research explodes the fable that midlife is a time when things start to go downhill for everybody. In fact, midlife can be a great new adventure, when you can embrace fresh possibilities, purposes, and pleasures. In Life Reimagined, Hagerty explains that midlife is about renewal: It’s the time to renegotiate your purpose, refocus your relationships, and transform the way you think about the world and yourself. Drawing from emerging information in neurology, psychology, biology, genetics, and sociology—as well as her own story of midlife transformation—Hagerty redraws the map for people in midlife and plots a new course forward in understanding our health, our relationships, even our futures.

The worst advice an older person ever gets is, Take it easy. Easy makes you soft, and soft makes you dead. The Barbell Prescription maps an escape from the usual fate of older adults: a logical, programmed approach to the hard work necessary to win at the extreme sport of Aging Well. Unlike all other books on the subject of exercise for seniors, The Barbell Prescription challenges the motivated Athlete of Aging with a no-nonsense training approach to strength and health - and demonstrates that everybody can become significantly stronger using the most effective tools ever developed for the job.
