Younger by the Day: 365 Ways to Rejuvenate Your Body and Revitalize Your Spirit [Hardcover]

Victoria Moran (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: November 23, 2004

Wouldn't it be wonderful to love your life through every age and stage of it? Appreciate yourself every step of the way? And have such vitality that, even though you're perfectly proud of the age you are, people routinely think you're several years younger?

This happy state is the promise of Younger by the Day, a one - year program for aging in reverse with results that start as soon as you do -- and you can start any day of the year.

Victoria Moran was baffled when midlife seemed to change everything, from the shape of her body to her visibility in society. She began a four - year journey, asking these questions: Why do some women blossom with age while others wither? How can you accept yourself as you are and still nurture yourself into becoming the best you can be? How can you draw from your inner wisdom everything you need to deal with the un-certainties of life as well the certainty of growing older?

Victoria found the practical answers, and they are distilled here for you to put into use, one day at a time.

This review is from: Younger by the Day: 365 Ways to Rejuvenate Your Body and Revitalize Your Spirit (Hardcover)

Upon first glance at the title, you may assume that this is another run-of-the-mill "get younger" book filled with info about pricey creams, spa treatments and a diet plan. Not so! This book is refreshing in it's approach to getting younger. Ms. Moran suggests that real and lasting changes be made from within. This doesn't mean that you can't or shouldn't use expensive creams, get spa treatments and eat well. You just have to make sure that you are focusing on improving both the inner and outer parts of you. For instance: Learning to not make mountains out of molehills paired with giving yourself a therapeutic warm sesame oil massage will do wonders for how you feel both inside and outside. This hand-in-hand approach echoes throughout this lovely book.

Read this book; put the ideas to use. Let Ms. Moran be your guide to learning how to feel younger, both mentally and physically. I've had the honor of meeting her in person and I can tell that she practices what she's written in this book. She's joyful and vibrant and looks younger than her years. Works for me!! =) I'm buying this book for all my female friends so we can all get younger together!

5.0 out of 5 stars Too Young for Frumpy, January 19, 2005

By 

Jerri Farris (Kansas City, MO) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Younger by the Day: 365 Ways to Rejuvenate Your Body and Revitalize Your Spirit (Hardcover)

This book was my New Year's gift to myself, and I look forward to "unwrapping" the next installment every morning.

Some of Ms. Moran's suggestions are familiar...old friends, in fact; others are entirely new to me. All are written in such a direct, friendly voice that reading them feels like hearing suggestions from a well-informed, trusted friend.

After sampling only 18 of the "365 ways to rejuvenate my body and revitalize my Spirit," I'm feeling a difference, and other people are noticing. In the last few days I've been asked whether I've lost weight, cut my hair, fallen in love.

If you're a woman in mid-life, do yourself a favor: Buy this book and follow its advice. We are all, as Ms. Moran says, too young for frumpy, but we're too old to miss a chance to be inspired and energized every morning.

This review is from: Younger by the Day: 365 Ways to Rejuvenate Your Body and Revitalize Your Spirit (Hardcover)

Victoria Moran's new book, "Younger by the Day" is just the refresher course needed by any woman whipped by our societal norms into thinking that her productive years -- and her beauty -- are over. Packed with factual, but not bland, real information -- interspersed with spiritual insights that only the wise who have lived long and fruitfully -- with a touch of whimsy -- could ever put into words -- I find this book uplifting, informative, and so empathetic.... You will be younger emotionally, physically, and most important of all -- younger in spirit at then end of this book! Victoria Moran is a genius to have pulled this all together in one book. Thank you, Victoria!!
