Mama J Unchained is about living your best life, every day, especially as you age. While not denying the inevitable losses that come with aging, including death itself, this book turns traditional views of aging on their heads as they generally neglect to see the beauty in this part of our lives. Unchained from the stressful obligations of our younger years, we are free to explore who we really are. Beneath our ego driven need for success, career, raising children, keeping up appearances and making money lies an inner being that has always been there but ignored in the pursuit of worldly goals. Call it soul, spirit, inner being or Buddha nature, this part of is is always at peace, naturally loving, compassionate, kind, wise and accepting of yourself and your life just as it is. Learning to view our lives through these lenses changes everything, perhaps making our last chapters the best ones yet.
