Excellent Resource and Self Help Book,
By Melanie J. Pembleton (Salt Lake City, Utah United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Beating the Senior Blues: How to Feel Better and Enjoy Life Again (Paperback)
This is a book of many positivies! It is in large print for ease of reading, and is outlined as a simple step by step working book. It encourages one to seek support from family and friends, to examine the real self, and to take responsibility for ones own health. It serves as a wonderful resource for family members, professional staff, and seniors. I HIGHLY recommend this book!

Feeling better each day!,
By Margaret M. Grove (Charlottesville, Virginia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Beating the Senior Blues: How to Feel Better and Enjoy Life Again (Paperback)
I felt that "Beating the Senior Blues" was written especially for me! As a widow, I did not realize how sad, depressed, lonely and inactive I had become. This book gave me instant hope and is a splendid guide to become alive and well again. Each section helps you, whether by exercise, regaining friendships, having new activities and circle of friends - I am indebted to the authors for helping me! I recommend giving this book to anyone you know who needs a boost to "feel better and enjoy life again".
