"We can take control of our health and remain vital until the last day. Joan Frentz has written a timely book that offers us new choices. All women will benefit from Life Begins@Sixty. Get moving!"
                  - Louise Hay, author of You Can Heal Your Life and Empowering Women
 
"Life Begins@Sixty is a prescription for how to live long and well at any age—but particularly after 60. Joan Frentz’s advice is right on the mark!"
                  - Christiane Northrup, MD, author of Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom (Bantam 1998) and The Wisdom of Menopause (Bantam 2001)
 
“Although Life Begins@Sixty targets a specific audience of older women, in my late twenties and as Joan’s editor, I saw myself and the way I have been struggling with my weight problems since childhood reflected in each of Joan’s characters. It was almost like reliving my entire life and a wake-up call. The strength of this book lies in relating to the kind of deep-down feelings and challenges we women face every day: taking up the treadmill yet another time or eating a decadent hunk of chocolate because there was no hope. It was comforting to know that I am not alone.
 
Life Begins@Sixty is not just for women over sixty. It’s for every woman who has bought new clothes because the old didn’t fit any longer. It’s for every woman who has been on every single diet on earth. It’s for every woman who knows she has to get out there and start living better but just hasn’t been able to.
 
Because she has been there, Joan Frentz is somebody who intuitively knows the problems that women face. Her life is an inspiration to all the women who hurt and who want to lose weight, and most importantly, take pride in being a woman. If this book doesn’t get you out there exercising and taking control of your life, nothing ever will. I dragged my husband to the tennis courts twice yesterday. Twice. It’s not easy. And I don’t know how long I can motivate myself. But whenever in doubt, I go back to Joan’s book. If Life Begins@Sixty doesn’t get you out there exercising and taking control of your life, nothing ever will.”

"When I recognize my body,
spiritually honor and appreciate
my body as it is; my mind has no choice
and steps out of the way. "
