A LIFE WORTH LIVING: PRACTICAL STRATEGIES FOR REDUCING DEPRESSION IN OLDER ADULTS
Pearl M. Mosher-Ashley and Phyllis W. Barrett
A unique book that presents a host of tools for combating the depression that often accompanies the life changes associated with aging. It features 11 innovative interventions built around everyday activities such as gardening, exercising, reading, and reminiscing that are designed to appeal to every older person. These interventions are so simple they don’t feel like therapy, yet they produce such positive effects as increased self-esteem, decreased loneliness, lowered blood pressure, and heightened mental acuity.
