Years later, after completing her training, she developed osteoarthritis, leading to another attack of rheumatoid arthritis, leaving her crippled and in severe pain. Realising that the medical profession could do nothing for her, as the only available treatment was aspirin, she began to look into natural treatments.\u003cbr\u003eMargaret researched many different natural approaches to healing, including traditional remedies such as Epsom Salts baths and Cider Vinegar. She combined these detoxification remedies with a particular combination of nutritional supplements to develop her own treatment. After a year of following this regimen, she rid herself of all signs of arthritis, and continued to lead a pain-free life. The word spread gradually of Margaret Hills' efforts to rid herself of all arthritic symptoms, and many people contacted her to find out more details as so many were in a similar situation of extreme pain due to arthritis of some type. Due to huge public interest, she opened a clinic to help others who were suffering, and to guide others through their recovery.

In a vivid narrative that reveals the fascinating realm of the unspoken – from extraordinary undertakers and death cafés, to pilgrimages and taboos – Tom quickly learns that death and speaking for the dead requires you to think on your feet and often take a magpie approach to faith and philosophy.

It’s going through the steps and passages of life proactively to finally \u003cb\u003earrive at your true self\u003c\/b\u003e. Moore sees melancholy and loneliness as feelings to embrace, explore, and work through. Instead of fighting aging, he urges readers to accept it and become mentors or elders to younger people, sharing both wisdom and compassion. Moore doesn’t belittle the challenges that older people face, but instead counsels them to use these obstacles as the means to develop the soul. He urges everyone to be open to opportunities, to use retirement as a time to focus on arts and relationships, and to think of leaving legacies. He understands older people’s need to be seen and heard as well as the draw of formal religion and the quest for meaning. And he speaks of death as the natural progression of life. Moore, who is in his late seventies, follows his own advice as he continues to speak and write about spirituality.

Exercise is even better when you move to music, as Diana recommends in this wonderful book. Buy it now and put a spring in your step. -- Lionel Blair, entertainer\u003cbr\u003eI've known Diana Moran for years – and in her seventies she still looks in her fifties. If her secret is in this book I thoroughly recommend it. I'm fast realising that the older we get the more we need to stay active! -- Matthew Wright, broadcaster\u003cbr\u003eI know seventy is now much of an age nowadays. But when it actually happens to you (me), it's still a bit of a facer. So I agree that Diana's message should be a maxim for us all! And here are my simple exercises for the face: 1. Look up, not down. 2. Look forward, not back. 3. Raise the sides of the mouth. Hold for thirty years.  I don't know whether they work, but I'm keeping on with them just in case. -- Sir Richard Stilgoe, singer and songwriter\u003cbr\u003eThis book is a bible for anyone over sixty. As it recommends, I walk fast every single day for a minimum of half an hour and it has become such a part of my life that I barely notice it. I tend to shop locally so will always walk there and back; if I need to get a bus somewhere I'll walk a couple of stops further than I need to. I feel fitter than I've ever done, my weight has stayed the same for years and I sleep well. It costs nothing and you don't need special equipment. So \u003ci\u003eSod Sitting, Get Moving!\u003c\/i\u003e – it's worked for me. -- Trudie Goodwin, The Bill and Emmerdale actress\u003cbr\u003eAt 58 I know the need to keep active – whoever you are. I'm lucky to have maintained my fitness, I don't push the competitive boundaries these days, I just find joy in being active and being able to be active! As Diana recommends in her excellent book, activity can often just be simply walking and having the time and opportunity to commune with nature.
