"With wit and a soupçon of irreverence, Marie de Hennezel shows that there is no age limit for erotic joy. Through interviews with older French women and men, de Hennezel uncovers a plethora of tips for enjoying a rich and satisfying sex life after age sixty. She suggests that perhaps the most important point is to have a positive self-image - to love yourself-and instead of worrying about wrinkles and other outward signs of aging, to cultivate an inner youthfulness, which, combined with a certain maturity, she says, can be sexier than youth all by itself. It is better to skip the plastic surgery and intense workouts at the gym and focus on sensuality, pleasure, and emotional intimacy instead. Marie de Hennezel is a psychologist and therapist and the author of The Art of Growing Old and The Warmth of the Heart Prevents Your Body from Rusting: A French Recipe for a Long Life, Well-Lived. She lives in Paris"--Provided by publisher.
