Dr Miriam Stoppard

"This book is different from most other books on ageing because it's a reflection on my own health and happiness from the long perspective of my life as a doctor, wife, mother, author, business woman, TV presenter, journalist, grandmother and widow, sharing with you the best bits of what I've learned has been a stormy one."After decades on TV, as well as being a columnist and health and relationship expert for the Daily Mirror newspaper, Dr Miriam Stoppard is one of the most recognisable and trusted voices on health, wellbeing, parenting and everything in between. Now, as she approaches her 89th birthday, Dr Miriam turns her attention to an often-overlooked section of society - the over 60s. Dr Miriam has watched as life for so many in her generation has changed and people are able to live better for longer - something she hopes her advice will help even more people to achieve.

Sex, Drugs and Walking Sticks is a one-stop guide to living well and feeling confident in your older years is a liberating read. It frees you from being what you "ought' to be, to being whatever you like. You've earned that freedom.

Dr Miriam's approach is to get you feeling happy about as many aspects of your life as you want to, whether that be confidence in health, happiness, relationships, looks and more.
