Follow on Google News | New Book Happy Healthy…Dead Reveals the Key to Successful AgingWhen asked, “Do you want to live a long, happy life?” our answer is universally “Yes!” But if asked, “Do you want to grow old?” The answer is a resounding “No!”
The new book, Happy Healthy…Dead: “You really can’t hope to experience a long, happy life without growing older. It’s a fact of life,” says Nelson. “But here’s the problem: our mental picture of life over 75 is pathetic. And over 80, 90, 100--even worse. We like the idea of living a long, happy life, but no one wants to grow old. Old age scares the heck out of us.” Nelson, a psychologist and author of over a dozen books, wrote Happy Healthy…Dead to show readers how to live life starting now, in a way that supports happiness and healthy longevity through their 50s and 60s to their 90s and beyond. Happy Healthy…Dead explains what sets apart those who are enjoying life in their later years from those who complain about every ache and pain. It tells how to retain the exuberance and energy of youth while harnessing wisdom gleaned from experience. It includes extensive scientific research proving how vital our current thoughts, emotions and attitudes are to our ability to live a long, healthy future. “You may think being happy, optimistic, grateful and appreciative are nice ways to feel, pleasant ways to go about life, but they go far beyond momentary feel-goods,” Nelson contends that we all have the capacity to live happier and healthy lives as we age. Sheprovides a roadmap through an assortment of tips, tools and techniques for everyday life situations. Happy Healthy…Dead also contains real life, inspiring examples of seniors doing great things including these centenarians: --George Blevins has been bowling regularly for 93 years and won the National Senior Games singles tournaments for the over 75 age group at age 100. --Lillian Weber celebrated her 100 birthday by surpassing her goal of sewing 1,000 dresses for needy children--she sewed 1,051, all handmade, all personalized. --Astrid Thoenig celebrated her 100 birthday by going to work, as she has for the last 30 years, at an insurance company in New Jersey. "Our time on Earth may be finite,” says Nelson, “but nowhere is it written that our last 10, 20 or 30 years must be spent in decline and misery. Why not make sure you’re on the right path, right now, that will bring you the most happiness, health and longevity?” Happy Healthy…Dead is available on Amazon in paperback (http://www.amazon.com/ ### Follow: @drnoellenelson (https://twitter.com/ Book Details Print Length: 215 pages Publisher: Publication Date: November 2015 Sold by: Amazon, Amazon Kindle ISBN-10: ISBN-13: ASIN: B018KFBE92 End
