The
rest of your life lies ahead of you. Do you want to spend it
fighting
your body and worrying about things you can't change? Or do
you want to
live your life to its fullest by combining age, experience, and
creativity to develop a new vision for your body and
self?
Women in midlife face many changes, such as children growing up,
returning to the workforce, or retiring from it. Then there
are the
physical changes: crow's-feet, saggy arms, an expanding
waistline. The
transformations within us and around us can leave us feeling
anxious,
ineffective, and out of control, especially in a culture
that defines
midlife as the beginning of a decline. It's easy to look at
our lives
and ourselves and wish we could turn back the clock, but it
doesn't
have to be that way. Midlife is a time of
opportunity to renew, grow strong, set new goals, and
redefine who you are. Change Your Mind, Change Your Body:
Feeling Good About Your Body and Self After 40
gives you the tools you need to utilize your wisdom and
experiences to
shape a new vision of who you are and what you want your
life to look
like -- right now. Learn how to: • Cope with
the physical and mental changes that midlife brings •
Revamp ideas of what is sexy and desirable • Turn fears
of aging into tools for positive growth • Develop a
positive, realistic body image • Embrace who you are and
who you will become • Set weight and exercise goals you
can really achieve • Help our daughters create a
positive self-image You have the power to
renegotiate your relationship with your body, yourself, and
the world around you, and Change Your Mind, Change Your
Body will help you discover and use it.
