Gerontologist Dr. Kerry Burnight explains why embracing joy in the second half of life can lead to greater health, purpose and longevity.
According to Dr. Kerry, books that advance lifespan and "healthspan" don't address the whole picture. In her new book Joyspan: The Art and Science of Thriving in Life's Second Half Dr. Kerry introduces readers to the critical concept of "joyspan" based on the science of well-being.
It's a practical guide that shares her popular philosophy and tools along with insights from her own 95-year-old mother, Betty.
