And then, once it begins, what should become some of our very best years, a time of hard-earned relaxation and freedom, focusing on what we cherish the most, can instead become a period of worry and stress. For some, lacking the structure of their old routine, it is easy to struggle with a lack of purpose and even loneliness. But it needn't be. And help is at hand.In The Second Half, Brian Moore, the former England rugby player turned psychotherapist, draws on how he learned to thrive after the end of his own sporting career - athletes 'retire' from their principal careers earlier than most people - as well as the transformational stories of the clients he has treated to get the most out of this period of their lives.Written for anybody navigating this period of life, including partners who want to support their loved ones, The Second Half is a frank, wise and optimistic guide to resilience and reinvention. From finding new purpose and nurturing relationships to financial planning, health and wellbeing, it proves that leaving one chapter behind can be the beginning of the best one yet.
