The fears of aging have been one long cascading domino effect through the years: twenty yearolds dread thirty; forty yearolds fear fifty; sixty fears seventy, and so it goes. And there is something to worry about, though it isn't what you'd expect: research shows that having a bad attitude toward aging when we're young is associated with poorer health when we're older.These worries tend to peak in midlife; but in Lighter as We Go, Mindy Greenstein and Jimmie Holland show us that, contrary to common wisdom, our sense of wellbeing actually increases with our ageoften even in the presence of illness or disability. For the first time, Greenstein and Hollandon a joint venture between an 85 yearold and a fifty yearoldexplore positive psychology concepts of character strengths and virtues to unveil how and why, through the course of a lifetime, we learn who we are as we go. Drawing from the authors' own personal, intergenerational friendship, as well as a broad array of research from many different areasincluding social psychology, anthropology, neuroscience, humanities, psychiatry, and gerontologyLighter as We Go introduces compassion, justice, community, and culture to help calm our cascading fears of aging.
