Celebrate Wise Mature Women“Skip the midlife crisis and embrace the joys of aging with this “lighthearted manual on how to become a juicy and wise old woman”. —Isabelle Allende, recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
#1 Bestseller in Adulthood & Aging and Mysticism
Dr. Bolen is celebrated by some of the most acclaimed women of the twentieth century like Isabel Allende, Gloria Steinem, and Alice Walker. In her book, Crones Don't Whine, she offers mature women thirteen qualities to cultivate personal growth during their crone years.
What is a crone? Life after forty doesn’t end. So why do most women treat it like it does? Put aside your midlife crisis and embrace the aging process with Crones Don't Whine. They're juicy and they trust their own instincts. Meditating, not groveling, and choosing the path with heart, crones are fierce about what matters to them. They speak the truth with compassion. They listen to their bodies, reinvent themselves, and savor the good in their lives.
Grow and behold. Forget about getting old, aging gracefully is all about perspective. As Dr. Bolen explains, crone years are "growing" years in women’s lives. In this new stage, women can finally devote their time, energy, and creativity to what really matters to them.
Thirteen essays and practices. Featuring thirteen brief essays and small practices, this lighthearted book gives readers resources to turn to again and again.
