LOVING LIFE IN RETIREMENT
by Dr. Marvin H. Berenson
Loving Life in Retirement offers a comprehensive and
effective program to transform thinking and behavior. The book presents a
broad range of insights that can foster change and enrich the lives of
seniors.
The book contains 52 mental imagery exercises uniquely
developed to help seniors overcome negative thinking and behavior that
interfere with finding happiness and fulfillment. Loving Life in
Retirement offers psychological insights and ways for retirees to
realize their happiness potential. Individual chapters are devoted to
overcoming obstacles to change, creativity, sex for seniors, a diet and
exercise program, understanding and overcoming emotional problems,
romance, spirituality and the relationship between parents and their
children and grandchildren.
I emphasize that real happiness in life doesn’t come from
material possessions, but from an inner sense of self worth. Creativity,
romance, learning to engage in nature, finding outlets that are
fulfilling and maintaining optimism about life are the essential keys to
happiness.
It is my purpose to help all seniors find new and more
effective methods to achieve happiness. I fully believe that creating a
happy and exciting retirement can be life-changing for countless numbers
of retirees. In these problematic times, there is even a greater need
for providing information that clearly defines ways to achieve peace,
satisfaction and inner contentment. Developing a new and more fulfilling
lifestyle is within reach of every older
person.
