If you plan to age, prepare yourself—it’s later than you think. The challenge of aging well should be taken seriously, but not grimly! Whatever your age, it’s never too soon, or too late, to learn and apply the fine art of aging well, really well. Discover what aspects of aging can’t be changed and improve the rest that can. Mold your own realities with REAL wellness, Ardell-style.
The 69 tips—one for each year of the author’s life—are thought-provoking, challenging, eye-opening, manageable and fun to read. And all provide practical guidance for intelligently designing your own life-style evolution.
