Help, I am over 50! Could we age better if we expect better?
When we reach middle age, we not only fear decline in our minds and bodies, we count on it. We expect our knees to hurt, our memory to deteriorate, and it to become increasingly difficult or even impossible to apply for a new job, let alone learn a new language. While some of it may be true, could some of these expectations about ageing itself play a role in how we age and vice versa? Can we age better if we expect better?
