If you're like many people, you dread becoming feeble, having a disabling fall, or needing the care of your children or others as you grow older. Perhaps you've already reached this point and wonder if there's anything you can do about it. The answer is YES! Even if you've stayed fit and active most or all of your life, worry has likely crept in at one time or another about how your body will function in your later years.

It's no secret that we are all aging. The question is: What can you do to age as functionally and independently as possible? If you're like many people, you dread becoming feeble, having a disabling fall, or needing the care of your children or others as you grow older. Perhaps you've already reached this point and wonder if there's anything you can do about it. The answer is YES! Even if you've stayed fit and active most or all of your life, worry has likely crept in at one time or another about how your body will function in your later years. No one wants to imagine having limited mobility, or having to give up work or hobbies you love, or not being able to have fun with your grandchildren. But these fears do NOT have to be your reality. As a physical therapist for fifty years and the founder of Thera-Fitness®, author C. Vicki Gold, PT, MA--now eighty years young and living an active life--is an expert in helping people optimize their physical, and even mental, abilities with her ABC Mind-Body System. In Aging Safely, Wisely, and Well, she has culled her most valuable moves, body mechanics, and mindset tips to help seniors transform the ways they move through life. And if you don't like exercise? You'll be glad to know that this is NOT an exercise book! If you have concerns about your levels of strength and fitness--even if you currently have physical limitations--this book will provide you with simple ways to start immediately improving them, with actionable steps to be functionally fit for the rest of your life. You read that right! Part One of Aging Safely, Wisely, and Well focuses on: Setting yourself up for successful transformation using neuroplasticity, mindfulness, and visualization Incorporating Vicki's ABC Mind-Body System of Alignment, Breathing, and Centering as your foundation for all moves and activities Learning to move in S-l-o-w - M-o-t-i-o-n for mental and physical benefits Mastering The Basic Moves and the principles of body mechanics so that your activities are always performed safely Embracing the ABC(S) of Attitude, Beliefs, Commitment, and Self-Talk to foster your personal growth and transformation Making the elements of Basic Physical Fitness the building blocks for your routine Then, in Part Two, Vicki provides bonus chapters, with contributions from experts in their fields, that address specific areas of concern: Maintaining the gift of balance and avoiding falls Keeping your feet healthy and happy Preventing and treating osteoporosis Successfully aging in place Making nutrition a priority Whether you're a senior in your 60s, 70s, 80s, or even 90s--or you're a younger adult who wants to engage in preventive activities--Aging Safely, Wisely, and Well: A Movement and Mindset Guide for Older Adults is a blueprint for simple physical and mental activities that will empower you to be the strong and vital individual you desire to be!
