Younger Forever: A SuperAger’s Guide to Life After 50

Summary

From the New York Times bestselling creator and coauthor of the Younger Next Year series, comes Younger Forever: A SuperAger’s Guide to Life After 50.

Chris Crowley took his own advice thirty years ago and now, at ninety-one, he’s a superager, a new category among serious students of longevity. With good humor (a must!) and wisdom, Crowley mixes his knowledge of health and fitness with his personal experience navigating his own “third act” to lay out what you can do now to boost your odds later, what to expect as you age, and how to cope with it.

Exercise, relentless optimism, and intense connection and commitment to others are at the core, but Crowley dives deeper to discuss some of the tricky stuff people don’t talk about as much: what to do all day now that you’ve retired, how to deal with fading good looks, a vanishing sex drive, an embarrassingly leaky bladder, among others. Honest and straightforward, Crowley addresses how he’s navigated these issues, including the inevitable bumps in the road, and how you can too.

Full of optimism and a rallying spirit, Crowley’s suggestions are practical and doable for all. He urges you to identify your best gifts and figure out how to use them in retirement, embrace modern medicine, plan ahead for the inevitable so you can forget about it, and many other simple actions that will nurture happiness, health, and engagement well into your nineties.  

An inspiration, a comfort, and a personal guide for living an amazing third act, Younger Forever is a book everyone should read and share with their closest friends and family.
