No-nonsense aging is not a passive process.

This book does not encourage you to simply accept your fate, don rose-coloured glasses, and ignore the fact that, yes, you are getting older.

You are aging. But you can let go of the stiff, frail, vague version of yourself and embrace this truth:

Aging is not a hopeless process of loss and deterioration.

There are a lot of books out there on weight loss, exercise, and the physical activities beneficial to your health. There are even books out there on aging gracefully, whatever that means for you.

There are very few - if any - books out there for us older folks that give a concrete approach to the physical, cognitive, and emotional exercises centered around maintaining the whole person you are.

This book is user-friendly, providing connection, education, and simple practices that can drastically heighten the positives of your day-to-day life while allowing you to cope well with the negatives that will unquestioningly come.

You do not control the fact that you are aging, but you do control the way you age!

If you take control of what you can - which I promise is more than you currently think! - its infectious nature will touch your spouse, your children, your grandchildren, your friends, and your neighbors.

You can do this. Become the Fit and Fabulous you.
