Reviews
This book re-frames ageing by applying Mindfulness techniques. It gave me an appreciation that ageing should be seen not as an issue, but as a different opportunity... Lewis provides a set of tools to re-train the mind to explore what each of us can do to take responsibility for our own life and ageing process. * Netgalley * This book is all about dispelling the stereotypes that society has imposed on us regarding the notion of age and aging...Take some time to read this book...If you think that working long hours early in life so you can save sleeping and resting until retirement is what life is all about, take a look at what this book has to say to you. Perhaps a better balance in our lives now is what should be happening to avoid the burnout that eventually will come; sooner than you think if your mind-set is set in the past. * Netgalley *

NetGalley * Netgalley * Great insight and inspiration to help navigate life with acceptance, mental flexibility and self compassion. Highly recommended read. LinkedIn * LinkedIn * This mind-expanding shift may be exactly what we need to level up our lives after the age of 50. Instead of accepting the popular rhetoric that decline is all we have to look forward to, we can enrich our lives and ourselves by being intentional and practicing acceptance and self-compassion. A wonderfully eye-opening read. This book will appeal to lovers of self-help and psychology. GoodReads * GoodReads * I just turned 51 and I secretly harboured a helplessness - feeling out of control, that I had so much stuff to do and not enough time. Then I saw this book. The revelation that I’m likely to be happiest at 80 - together with tips on proper mindfulness, Berit’s own experiences...has given me a renewed zeal and zest for the remainder of my life. Brilliant. Amazon * Amazon * ...possibly the only mindfulness book you need. I really liked the author's writing style, which is spare, professional, clearly laid out and well researched. There is a easy framework to follow (easy to understand, not so easy to practice!) and a very good website linked to the book which includes further information and some very good meditations. The book is aimed at older adults, but I think it would be very useful for anyone interested in mindfulness related to ageing. NetGalley
