“Younger Forever arrives with something its predecessor could not offer: the testimony of a man who has actually made the trip…Crowley’s candor gives Younger Forever its tension. The book retains the optimism, exhortation, and blunt humor that made the original series popular, while acknowledging indignities that no amount of kale or cardio can banish entirely: memory lapses, altered appearance, reduced sexual desire, incontinence, grief, and the accumulating evidence that the third act eventually ends.”
Chronogram
From the New York Times bestselling creator and coauthor of the Younger Next Year series comes Younger Forever: A SuperAger’s Guide to Life After 50.
Chris Crowley took his own advice twenty-five years ago, and it has paid off handsomely. At ninety-one, he is a SuperAger, a category these days among serious students of longevity. Crowley believes being a SuperAger is mostly a matter of living longer and having more fun, which he has certainly done. He is still skiing the black diamonds in Aspen, has written eight books since turning seventy, and leads a vigorous social life. He is also fit and healthy. With his signature wit and long knowledge of successful aging and wellness, he tells us how he got there. He also reports on new things he learned along the way, some of them quite surprising.
Exercise, relentless optimism, and intense connection with others are at the core of his experience and advice. But he also takes a deep dive into aspects of retired life that others don’t talk about. A big one: figuring out what to do all day, now that you’re retired. Having something serious to do—something that uses your best gifts but leaves plenty of time for play—is critical and not easy. There’s the amusing business of getting funny looking as you age and what to do about it. Also, what about your leaky bladder? Your vanishing sex drive? The fact that you put your hat in the refrigerator the other day?
Humor, optimism, and good spirits count for a lot, and he brings them all. There are bumps in the road, but if you know they’re coming and take some steps, the Third Act can be a joy…perhaps the best in the whole play.
This is Crowley’s report from the front on the great struggle for wellness, relevance, and pleasure in the Third Act—inspirational, informative, and fun. Like his life.
