Road Maps for the Third Age

Jeri Sedlar and Rick Miners, Don’t Retire, REWIRE! (2nd edition), (Alpha, 2007)

Eric Sundstrom, Randy Burnham, and Michael Burnham, My Next Phase: The Personality-Based Guide to Your Best Retirement (Springboard Press, 2007)

Also in Print and Audio . . .

For more about the challenges and the richness of this phase of life, I would suggest these previous “Psychology of Advice” articles: “Retiring Minds,” “The Age of Enlightenment,” and “The Bell Tolls.”

Finally, I can’t praise highly enough a wonderful therapeutic resource for couples seeking to deepen their emotional connection: “Crossing the Bridge,” a four-part CD set created by therapist and teacher Hedy Schleifer and her husband Yumi (www.hedyyumi.org).
