Foster http://www.itsallaboutaging.com/blog/?p=209&cpage=1#comment-6740 Dr. Charles L. Foster Fri, 28 Dec 2012 13:30:58 +0000 http://www.itsallaboutaging.com/blog/?p=209#comment-6740 A discussion of aging is one of the most important a physician can have with a patient. There are "real, tried and true" ways of slowing the aging process and for a time, even reversing the process. As a chiropractor, we see many from the geriatric population. We have observed the behavioral characteristics associated with staying young, acting young and feeling young. Even more, we have coached people in these behaviors and we have seen astounding results. We have witnessed more flexibility, increased strength, improved balance, better ambulation, more independence etc. The aging process is characterized by three things. 1. loss of muscle mass and strength. 2. Loss of elasticity/flexibility. 3. Loss of joint health. We believe that the chiropractic lifestyle helps people to address these three important areas that are critically linked to "younger" health.

We give up identity and career and all sorts of family roles, but in this emptying something new shines through. There is an awakening of a new consciousness. Loss and grief are part of this, but they also pave the way for some extraordinary possibilities. But no one seems to talk about aging as a developmental process of new growth, like adolescence. I'd love for us to talk more about how aging feels, what we are learning personally, what the gifts and tasks of a aging are.

I am a clinical psychologist, interfaith minister, author and certified "boomer" with two new books out on the psychology and spirituality of aging (see www.johnrobinson.org). This topic doesn't seem to garner the attention I think it deserves, though your site is refreshingly psychological. Still I was wondering if there might be a way to connect with your blog. Do you review books? Would you interested in an interview? Thanks for your time. Best wishes, John Hello!
