Midlife
Author: Kieran Setiya
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 1400888476
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 197
Book Description
Philosophical wisdom and practical advice for overcoming the problems of middle age How can you reconcile yourself with the lives you will never lead, with possibilities foreclosed, and with nostalgia for lost youth? How can you accept the failings of the past, the sense of futility in the tasks that consume the present, and the prospect of death that blights the future? In this self-help book with a difference, Kieran Setiya confronts the inevitable challenges of adulthood and middle age, showing how philosophy can help you thrive. You will learn why missing out might be a good thing, how options are overrated, and when you should be glad you made a mistake. You will be introduced to philosophical consolations for mortality. And you will learn what it would mean to live in the present, how it could solve your midlife crisis, and why meditation helps. Ranging from Aristotle, Schopenhauer, and John Stuart Mill to Virginia Woolf and Simone de Beauvoir, as well as drawing on Setiya’s own experience, Midlife combines imaginative ideas, surprising insights, and practical advice. Writing with wisdom and wit, Setiya makes a wry but passionate case for philosophy as a guide to life.

Why We Can't Sleep
Author: Ada Calhoun
Publisher: Grove Press
ISBN: 0802147860
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 243
Book Description
The acclaimed author explores the hidden crises of Gen X women in this “engaging hybrid of first-person confession, reportage [and] pop culture analysis” (The New Republic). Ada Calhoun was married with children and a good career—and yet she was miserable. She thought she had no right to complain until she realized how many other Generation X women felt the same way. What could be behind this troubling trend? To find out, Calhoun delved into housing costs, HR trends, credit card debt averages, and divorce data. At every turn, she saw that Gen X women were facing new problems as they entered middle age—problems that were being largely overlooked. Calhoun spoke with women across America who were part of the generation raised to “have it all.” She found that most were exhausted, terrified about money, under-employed, and overwhelmed. And instead of being heard, they were being told to lean in, take “me-time,” or make a chore chart to get their lives and homes in order. In Why We Can’t Sleep, Calhoun opens up the cultural and political contexts of Gen X’s predicament. She offers practical advice on how to ourselves out of the abyss—and keep the next generation of women from falling in. The result is reassuring, empowering, and essential reading for all middle-aged women, and anyone who hopes to understand them.

Midlife Geographies
Author: Aija Lulle
Publisher: Policy Press
ISBN: 1529228875
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 142
Book Description
In the 21st century, global demographics are rapidly changing, with a higher population of middle-aged people than ever before. As the ‘sandwich’ generation, people in midlife often experience significant work and intergenerational caring responsibilities, yet they are the subject of relatively little research. This short, accessible book redresses the balance in offering a geographical approach to how people embody and claim space in midlife while analysing the influences of gender, class and location. The author considers midlife in varying sociocultural and geographical contexts, viewed through the lens of the global neoliberal shift.

Midlife Mojo
Author: Frankie Picasso
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780595508853
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
There is no universal purpose in life. Everyone has their own reason for being here and their own purpose in life. What is my purpose? Why am I here? What is the meaning of my life? Although these questions come up again and again throughout life, when midlife hits we finally admit to ourselves that without concrete answers and real changes our lives will never be complete. Is YOUR Mojo Working? The word "mojo" is derived from the African (Congo region) word "moyo", which means soul or life-force. Mojo is your life-force. One of the greatest truths is that life is difficult. When you finally recognize this truth, you begin to question your existence. To transcend this life-altering moment you need to discover your purpose in your life. Once you've found your Mojo, life is no longer difficult because you have found your purpose, and the difficulties no longer matter. Get YOUR Mojo working! Midlife Mojo will spark action and change. It will help you find answers to your questions, no matter what they are, and promises to aid you in achieving peace of mind and success. Midlife Mojo is not your typical self-help or how-to book, but is a "to-do" book. Author Frankie Picasso speaks not only through her extensive education, but through life-altering experience as well. Midlife Mojo is a collaboration between Frankie Picasso and you. With Midlife Mojo you will rise from mid-life angst to find true meaning in your life.
