Learn to enjoy and be healthy in your third life phase

A great book with so many little tidbits of incredible advise. How to improve detailed aspects of health after a certain age, or how to improve a friendship, marriage or even doing something called laughing yoga. The best part was the detailed description of parkrun. All the advise was supported by research by experts in their field for anyone over 45. Both the audio and the book are incredible. As an NPR health report and CBS Sunday morning contributor see had access to so many resources that she shared with the readers.

Friends with Freckles

I am one of those people who can honestly say, I knew Allison 1.0. I have been looking forward to reading this book for months now! I was fortunate enough to read a snippet or two before she published, and I have been anxiously awaiting the final product. I am thrilled that Allison is able to share her wisdom and experiences with the world through her book Your Turn. I bought a copy for my bookclub members and it will be a fantastic discussion. Thank you Allison for your friendship and your knowledge. SO proud of you!!

Long-time fan

As a lomg-time fan of Allison Aubrey on NPR, I look forward to reading this book. Like her other work, I know it will be well-researched, accessible, and of interest even to those of us long past "the middle." Allison is a fine writer who piques interest from a broad range of listeners, often in subjects that seem arcane but become fascinating with her narratives..

Is this book for me? Turns out...yup!

An admitted fan of Allison Aubrey's health & science reporting, I picked up an early copy of the book at a signing event. I'm now immersed in it and taking my time--it's thoughtful & thought-provoking & I am learning a great deal.I'll admit to a little skepticism--am I part of the target audience?MIDLIFE : I am in my early seventies and already retired, some might say "That ship has sailed!" I don't expect to live to 140+, so I am NOT in midlife (Yikes!). But I am ever-seeking new lessons, new experiences, so this book IS for me!"HOW TO...." : Uh-oh! Um, didn't I give up on reading self-help b
