Amazon.com Review
Written as an easily accessible plan based on his Ageless Body, Timeless Mind, Deepak Chopra’s Grow Younger, Live Longer presents many of the same quantum-based theories of aging as simply a matter of changing your perception. But here, you’ll find the format greatly simplified into 10 short chapters, each with a single focus. Each step is fairly basic and combines visualization and breathing exercises with the behavior modifications we’ve come to expect when we try to get healthier, such as more exercise, balanced eating, avoidance of toxins, and regular sleep. Clear diagrams are included as necessary, such as with his yoga stretches and breathing exercises, and tables have been provided for a quick glance at some recommendations for vitamins. A handful of internationally inspired vegetarian recipes is tucked in the back and are a fun way to introduce some unusual flavors to your meals.
A regular complaint about Chopra’s books is the lack of clear data to back up his claims, and this has not changed. He provides numerous anecdotal accounts of folks ridding themselves of cancer, AIDS, or high blood pressure. For many lay readers, these anecdotes provide enough encouragement to try Chopra’s program and improve their outlook on life; medical professionals may just be annoyed. Lack of research aside, it’s hard to argue with the suggestions. From “connecting more openly with your coworkers” to “always use sunscreen when you are outdoors” and “drink plenty of fresh water throughout the day,” the majority of Chopra’s methods seem based in common sense, with his “Quantum Realm” as the seasoning that adds a little exciting flavor to a very basic recipe. –Jill Lightner
