Story2
Following her retirement from Princeton University, celebrated historian Dr. Nell Irvin Painter surprised everyone in her life by returning to school - in her 60s - to earn a BFA and MFA in painting. In Old in Art School, she travels from her beloved Newark to the prestigious Rhode Island School of Design; finds meaning in the artists she loves, even as she comes to understand how they may be undervalued; and struggles with the unstable balance between the pursuit of art and the inevitable, sometimes painful, demands of a life fully lived.

Some of the most profound growth of our lives can happen in the home stretch, the years after age 60 or so. It's a time when we can finally crystallize the meaning of what we've been and done so far and fully expand into the self we've always intended to be, guided by the voice of the soul. But, says psychologist Charles Garfield, that can only happen if we first loosen the grip of the life we've led so far, the one that's been focused outwardly - on activity, achievement, and the idea of success - and let our souls lead the way.

Na jornada de Daniel, o ouvinte vai se deparar com o cotidiano de um estudante de medicina que, junto a uma equipe de paliativistas do SUS, assiste a pacientes–em sua maioria, pessoas periféricas, carentes tanto de suporte econômico quanto de suporte psicológico. Se a finitude da existência ainda é um assunto tabu em nosso cotidiano, as dores e as angústias (tanto físicas quanto morais) que, muitas vezes, antecedem a morte, constituem temáticas ainda mais interditas na sociedade.

In elderhood, the health care system has a narrow view of how to provide care. It focuses on extending a patient's life at all costs, with an over-reliance on machines and procedures, instead of caring holistically for the person. Accordingly, many of us will likely spend our final weeks in long-term care facilities or an ICU. Dying at home, peacefully, and surrounded by family is almost impossible in our world—and our fear of death is a major contributor to this impossibility.

What are we going to do with those 20 or 30 years we didn’t expect? Due to unfounded fears of unhappiness and regret, many intelligent, otherwise rational people, even into their 40s and 50s, are so convinced that old age is a time of misery that they simply deny any other outcome and refuse to plan their own destiny. This optimistic and highly informative guide to smart aging will detail for listeners the steps they need to take to ensure that long life becomes synonymous with good life.

In the 21st century, a developmental phase of life is emerging as significant and distinct, capturing our interest, engaging our curiosity, and expanding our understanding of human potential and development. Demographers talk about this new chapter in life as characterized by people - those between ages 50 and 75 - who are considered "neither young nor old." In our "third chapters" we are beginning to redefine our views about the casualties and opportunities of aging.

In The Art and Science of Aging Well, Mark E. Williams, MD, discusses the remarkable advances that medical science has made in the field of aging and the steps that people may take to enhance their lives as they age.

"Älter werden wir alle, auf das Wie kommt es an." Wie es gelingt, geistig jung, gesund und voller Elan zu bleiben, lebt uns Dr. med. Marianne Koch vor. "Erfolgreich altern" nennt sie das, und was alles dazugehört, erzählt sie hier. Marianne Koch beleuchtet physiologische wie psychische Aspekte, die das Altern mit sich bringt. Sie geht auf das Selbstbewusstsein ein, auf Ernährung und Bewegung, auf lebenslanges Lernen, das Problem der Einsamkeit, den Umgang mit Verlusten und zeigt, wie wichtig es ist, die Lust am Neuen nicht zu verlieren. Am Ende steht die Frage: Wer bin ich heute - und wer möchte ich morgen sein?
