Sobre este e-book

Sixties Slow Down explores the science of aging, particularly focusing on the benefits of adjusting one's lifestyle to the natural rhythms of later life. It examines the psychological impact of societal expectations, the biological realities of aging, and the advantages of consciously slowing down. The book argues that society often pressures older adults to maintain an unsustainable pace, detrimental to their health. By understanding the changes inherent in aging, individuals can enhance their well-being and cognitive function. For instance, studies in gerontology reveal that rest and reduced stress are vital for optimal health in later life. The book's approach is comprehensive, blending psychology, life sciences, and biology to illustrate how pacing affects well-being.

It unfolds in sections, first defining what ""slowing down"" means in the context of aging and exploring psychological barriers. It then delves into the biological underpinnings of aging, drawing on research about cellular aging and cognitive decline. Finally, it synthesizes these insights to offer practical strategies for adapting daily routines and cultivating mindful practices. By challenging the notion that constant productivity is the ultimate measure of value, Sixties Slow Down advocates for balance and self-care, making it valuable for those navigating later life.
