Flourishing in Retirement by Shelly Dale Pdf

After many successful (or maybe just stressful) years in your career, you finally have the chance to say goodbye to the demands of work and retire. But, like it or not, work is often a central part of our adult lives and even identities. Rather than enjoying your hard-earned rest, you might find yourself asking . . . now what? Retirement doesn’t have to be intimidating, and planning for it doesn’t just need to involve your finances or picking up hobbies just so you can stay busy. It can also be an exciting opportunity for growth, self-discovery, intention, and self-care—an opportunity to embrace joy. That’s what Flourishing in Retirement: A Five-step Guide to Joy for the Post-career Woman is all about. Backed up by research and author Shelly Dale’s own experiences as a post-career woman, this book will help women (and any other retiree who needs it) build a retired life in which they feel empowered each day and unconditionally love themselves. It includes helpful activities such as meditations and mind-maps and thorough guides to coping behaviours, mindset shifts, and other healing techniques. It's time to bust common myths about retirement, break out of stinking thinking, and take this chance to rediscover yourself, your priorities, and those daily glimmers that enrich our lives. You deserve a joyous life and retirement, and the five steps in this book will help you make joyous living a constant practice.

Aging Faithfully by Alice Fryling Pdf

Would you like to grow in life-giving ways as you age? Do you have the courage to let go of former ways of thinking to receive God's love and life in new ways? As we age, we experience the loss of physical stamina, independence, and career fulfillment. Yet within each of these losses is a holy invitation to grow. God calls us to let go of our need for accomplishment and embrace the gift of fruitfulness so that we might be transformed in this final season of our lives. In Aging Faithfully, spiritual director Alice Fryling explores how to navigate the journey of retirement, lifestyle changes, and new limitations. In this season of life, we are invited to hold both grief and hope, to acknowledge ways of thinking that no longer represent who we are, and to receive peace in the midst of our fears. We all age differently, and God calls each of us to new spiritual birth as we mature. When we embrace the aging process, we grow closer to God and experience his grace as he renews us from within. Whether you are approaching the beginning, middle, or end of your senior years, you are invited. Come and be transformed. Aging Faithfully includes questions for group discussion and suggestions for personal meditation.

Prescription for a Happy Retirement by James D. Bash Do Pdf

Has retirement failed to bring the joy you expected? If so, you're not alone. Approximately 10,000 baby boomers retire daily, and most have trouble adjusting to retirement because they were unprepared for the loss of identity and purpose their job offered. Once retired, they may feel unfulfilled and suffer from PMS (Post-Work Melancholy Syndrome). Dr. James Bash understands this situation. After retiring, he felt disappointed and drained. He scoured the current literature for a cure, but found nothing that would fully revitalize him. He decided to write his own book and began exploring what makes retirement satisfying-why for some these are the fabled golden years. Now he shares what he learned through his research, personal experience, and the advice of his many retired patients. In Prescription for a Happy Retirement, Dr. Bash teaches readers how to: - Analyze the causes of their Post-Work Melancholy Syndrome - Plan for retirement if they're still working - Understand the difference between what they want and what they need in retirement - Increase their self-esteem by building an identity independent of their work persona - Create a new social life, routines, and sense of meaning for their days - Engage in lifelong activities and learning - Care for themselves physically so retirement is long-lasting and enjoyable When you retire, it can feel like your spark has been extinguished, which can lead to sadness. With Dr. Bash's prescription, you'll reignite your spark and help light up the world.

Retirement Income for Life by Frederick Vettese Pdf

Canada’s #1 bestselling retirement income book is now completely revised and updated. Vettese will show you how to mitigate risk and secure your financial future in these unpredictable times. As COVID-19 rocks the economy in an unprecedented black swan event, retirees and those who are preparing to retire need answers to pressing questions about their financial futures. Originally published in 2018, the second edition of Retirement Income for Life, has been completely revised and updated, and now includes: New chapters on early retirement, retiring single, what to do when one spouse dies young, and more. Three strategies for mitigating your personal financial risk in the current downturn in equities and other investment products. Advice on how to plan for (and even benefit from) the coming bear market, resulting from COVID-19, which will create unprecedented equity buying opportunities, possibly as early as 2021. Information on the impact of unbearably low interest rates on annuities and fixed income investments and what to do if you hold them. The reasons retirees should be deferring CPP until age 70 and why the case for this is stronger than ever. Author Frederick Vettese demystifies a complex and often frightening subject and provides practical, actionable advice based on five enhancements the reader can make to mitigate risk and secure their financial future. With over one thousand Canadians turning 65 every day, the cultivation of good decumulation practices — the way in which you draw down assets in retirement, ideally to have a secure income for the rest of your life — has become an urgent matter that no one can afford to ignore.

Thrive in Retirement by Eric Thurman Pdf

Discover the three secrets to happiness--and much more--in the later years of life. Never before in human history have so many people lived for decades beyond their working years. 10,000 Americans turn 65 each day, and their average life expectancy is another 20 years--and many will live longer. But will they just live or have a meaningful life? The truth is that many--if not most--people approaching the latter years do not have a plan, much less a strategy to thrive instead of just survive. Packed with information based on research as well as common-sense wisdom, here are some examples of what readers will discover: How retiring at the wrong time increases the likelihood of dying 89%. What can delay Alzheimer's onset an average of 9 years. How everything that makes you happy comes in just 3 forms. Which partner is most likely to initiate divorce after decades of marriage and why.

Retirement Experiences of Psychologists by Rodney R. Baker,Patrick H. DeLeon Pdf

Today, almost all Americans can expect to live longer and healthier lives than their parents or grandparents ever thought possible, which introduces an entirely new realm of opportunities and challenges than previously contemplated. Although often underappreciated, how this new generation of well-educated, longer living citizens will ultimately decide to develop personally satisfying lives, beyond relying upon traditional jobs and employment colleagues for meaningful affirmation in retirement, is truly uncharted territory. There are few role models or societal expectations for these unprecedented times—especially for women and ethnic minorities. This volume brings together distinguished senior psychologists from a wide range of former occupational positions to share their personal retirement experiences—their struggles, their aspirations, their eventual journeys. Many do not consider themselves “retired”—and some even suggest the concept of retirement itself needs examination and refinement. Advances in technology, frustrating physical ailments, and missing friends influence late life decisions. However, even when facing existential unknowns, each of the authors remains optimistic and open to seeking new directions in their lives. How they navigate their individual journeys in retirement suggests some common themes and pathways, although there are also many individual nuances. The unique personal story approach in this book enables the reader to share the concerns of retirement with each author and find out how they resolved those concerns in seeking a meaningful retirement. It is comforting to learn that there is no one path that applies to everyone. The authors share their thinking and decision-making in approaching their retirement and provide multiple guides for the reader to consider. Readers will also appreciate that “retiring to” something, instead of “retiring from” something, provides a new perspective in examining and shifting life and work goals in later life.

Mathematics for Human Flourishing by Francis Su Pdf

"The ancient Greeks argued that the best life was filled with beauty, truth, justice, play and love. The mathematician Francis Su knows just where to find them."--Kevin Hartnett, Quanta Magazine" This is perhaps the most important mathematics book of our time. Francis Su shows mathematics is an experience of the mind and, most important, of the heart."--James Tanton, Global Math Project For mathematician Francis Su, a society without mathematical affection is like a city without concerts, parks, or museums. To miss out on mathematics is to live without experiencing some of humanity's most beautiful ideas. In this profound book, written for a wide audience but especially for those disenchanted by their past experiences, an award-winning mathematician and educator weaves parables, puzzles, and personal reflections to show how mathematics meets basic human desires--such as for play, beauty, freedom, justice, and love--and cultivates virtues essential for human flourishing. These desires and virtues, and the stories told here, reveal how mathematics is intimately tied to being human. Some lessons emerge from those who have struggled, including philosopher Simone Weil, whose own mathematical contributions were overshadowed by her brother's, and Christopher Jackson, who discovered mathematics as an inmate in a federal prison. Christopher's letters to the author appear throughout the book and show how this intellectual pursuit can--and must--be open to all.
