Читать книгу Super Ager - Elise Marie Collins - Страница 7

When Elise told me her book was titled Super Ager, I was ignorant that there was a term, even a concept, by that name. I was also ignorant of the research regarding the Blue Zones®. My initial reaction was to contract. My mind skipped the “super” and went straight to “ager.” How is she going to sell a book with the word “ager” in it, I thought.

Super Ager, like Elise, is bold, brave, innovative, and sweet. Rather than shying away from our cultural aversion to aging, she goes into the heart of what is happening in these tiny pockets around the planet where our human elders are thriving into their eighties, nineties, and beyond. Elise shares the stories of these Super Agers, in their voices, in their cultures, so these experiences of common, everyday Super Agers ignite your vision for your future.

If you’re a smart cookie, you’ll read each and every page of this book. You’ll keep it as a scientific reference guide and a go-to source of spiritual and inspirational wisdom to direct your personal aging process.

The fundamental question you will come back to as you read Super Ager is this: how do you want to play your aging game? Elise is a wise, modern-day yogi, practicing jnana yoga. She enlightens through innovative, inspirational wisdom that stimulates you into aligned action.

You too can be a Super Ager.

You are in the driver’s seat, making small choices daily that compound into your aging future. Super Ager awakens you to discover how you want to do your aging. Elise scientifically explains the rules of the game if you want to be a Super Ager—if you want to thrive into your later decades—if you want to experience the connectivity possible for you as a human being, in your decades ahead.

Elise explains what is working for Super Agers and why, through the lens of Ayurveda, the holistic wisdom tradition that co-arose with yoga as the path to radiant longevity and everyday growth. I’ve devoted my career to sharing Ayurvedic wisdom, and Elise has been a partner on my path as the editor of our Yoga Health Coaching blog. Her generous heart and brilliant mind consistently escort me to new ways of thinking. In Super Ager, she has created a boon for Yoga Health Coaches and wellness pros from all traditions, to guide our society in thriving together.

As you read Super Ager, you will re-inspire yourself in the ancient truths about how we age, and discover what is possible for you. You will stimulate the path you must take to evolve right now and into who you truly want to be.

No joke.

You know there is room for you to grow smarter, more fun, more in the flow, and more connected.

If you want to be continually thriving with each day and each decade, get a few pals together—and start a Super Ager book club. Be smitten by your potential. Evolve together as a core Super Ager strategy.
