Book excerpt: At no other time in society have there been so many women at midlife looking for new answers, new attitudes and new ways of being. This powerful, insightful book provides you with the tools to choose how to live the second half of life, and it offers you vital possibilities for meaningful and profound change. Picture this woman: she is aged between 35 and 50 and, although relatively content until recently, she is now experiencing bewildering feelings of sadness, anger and apathy, and a yearning for a different life. Robyn Vickers-Willis writes about the importance of adults living consciously from midlife and beyond. She believes that it is important for women to embrace these turbulent feelings, rather than ignore, sedate or run away from them. Through shared stories, metaphor, dreams and reflections, and based on a sound psychological framework, you are given a map, complete with all the signposts, so you can choose your unique path to a life full of personal meaning, new passions, aliveness and creativity. This valuable and engaging book is a practical resource for women experiencing important life changes and for health professionals working with women.
