The subject of midlife has been dominated by the woes of
aging--menopause, divorce, hormone replacement therapies, aging
parents, and fleeing children. Now a broad-ranging new work by
clinical psychologist Linda N. Edelstein, Ph.D., "The Art of
Midlife," describes the freedom and authenticity that can be made a
cornerstone of the middle years. She describes three healthy and
predictable phases. First, women relinquish old ways, untying
themselves from the past and mourning the losses of youth and its
illusions. By placing less emphasis on the needs of others, women
can live more creatively and enjoy the present. The women Dr.
Edelstein studied have been able to move to the next step, in which
they reconnect to themselves. They regain their authentic voices,
simplify life, and allow long buried aspects of themselves to
emerge. Finally, women refocus their futures. With courage, they
embrace new people, ideas, activities, and work--and pursue adult
dreams regardless of external rewards.
