Irish Blessing Double Möbius Necklace
#UH5502 $64.95
May God grant you always a sunbeam to warm you, a
moonbeam to charm you, a sheltering Angel so nothing
can harm you.
The traditional Irish poesy engraved on our sterling silver
Irish Blessing Double Möbius Necklace
is as cozy, happy,
and comforting as a big friendly hug. The undulating
shape of the (about 1" in diameter) pendant—a geometric
Möbius strip with a double twist—is seemingly infinite
and utterly beautiful. Cast in the ancient lost-wax method
and hanging from a simple 18" chain, this joyful piece
adds a graceful touch to any ensemble.

Lighter As We Go: Virtues, Character Strengths, and Aging
by Mindy Greenstein and Jimmie Holland
#UL3702
Hardcover, 285 pages; 2015
$29.95
Written by a delightful two-woman team—a fifty-year-old psychologist
and an eighty-five-year-old psychiatrist—this upbeat and highly readable
exploration of aging is loaded with meaningful insights. Right off the
bat, we learn that despite the rampant dread of aging in our culture, our
sense of well-being actually increases as we age…so it’s with a feeling
of positivity that
Lighter As We Go
delves into how we can take an
active role in aging well. With examples and research from psychology,
neuroscience, the humanities, and fellow human experience, the
authors show how practicing virtues like humor, social justice, courage,
and wisdom can make us happier people at every stage of our lives.
What a wonderful gift for…well, anyone!
