He who fears death dies may times before his time’s goes an ancient proverb. In the same ay, those that fear ageing will die a thousand small deaths if they see each new wrinkle as another nail in the coffin rather than as a mark of experience. You might try to fake your age, but eventually you’ll have to face it. That first grey hair, the wrinkle that doesn’t go away when you stop laughing, crepey skin on your neck and hands, and ebbing energy levels all seem that you can’t accomplish what you used to: a minor injury doesn’t heal as quickly ; you notice an aching in your joints in certain weather; you come into a room and forget why you’re there; it takes you a while to un stiffen when you get out of bed in the morning. Suddenly, you realize you are moving like your grandmother once did! Sue, a Woman Victoria sometimes swims with, was thrilled to hear about this book. ‘Because it is traumatic, ageing’, she said as they side stroked alongside each other. Sue, a woman in her id – fifties, and enjoying early retirement from a teaching career, looked fit and how frightening it was, and how horrified she was ‘to look in the mirror and see my mother’. A sixty two year old who overhead the conversation chirped in, ‘ What’s all this sighing about? Gesturing to the baby grand daughter she’d been swimming with she said, ‘She won’t have to suffet with arthritis and stiff joints and the things I have from getting down on my knees to scrub and carrying heavy bags of groceries because I didn’t have a car’. That may be so, but their granddaughter will have to contend with a more sedentary, computer centred life, with a diet of chemical compounds calling themselves food, and what ever new stresses manifest themselves in the twenty first century. The main benefit her granddaughter will enjoy is improved awareness of what causes the deteriorations we associate with age and which are avoidable aspects that ca be prevented or at least postponed in the Fear of aging. There are many who resist the notion that you can turn back the clock and argue that this relentless pursuit of youth is a massive conspiracy of multi – national beauty and diet businesses, the media and the entertainment industry.
We are constantly bombared with idealized images we can’t possibly hope to live up to – and nor should we. It is this that causes lovely young women ( and even many older ones ) to turn anorexic and allows cowboy cosmetic surgeons to make millions altering perfectly good noses and chins or suctioning fat out of buttocks that don’t really have any to spare in the Fear of aging. Beauty facial and It is this that makes the cosmetics and slimming industries the mega – billion buckers they are today, with new produces launches seemingly daily to feed off our insecurities and promising the impossible soon … for only L 30, L50 or L 100 a month. There will be some who will rail against advice that after a certain age a woman is advised not to wear white leather or expose he cleavage before 8 p.m or that it’s time to pack up the pearlized eye shadow along with trainers ( apart from when working out) and halter tops in the Fear of aging. How dare we, you cry. What about Vivienne Westwood. Dolly Parton Joan Collins Goldie Hawn, Shirely Maclaine, Edna O’ Brien. Molly Parkin, not to mention countless other mature beauties who can happily defy such conventions? We hail them with you, but insist that you do a reality check on your own life and the people you need or want to influence. Most of us still have to get along with co – worker and go to the supermarket, and don’t want to appear eccentric or larger than life. Beauty facial and You will find plenty of scope in our suggestions and we leave it to you do decide what’s best for you. We will poke fun, and possibly insult some of your sensibilities. But we didn’t want to write another academic tome that takes itself too seriously. If you can’t have a laugh at yourself ( and we have plenty of laughs at our own expense) then you will get older faster!
