Happy to 102: Best Kept Secrets to a Long and Happy Life Exceeds Sales Projections in First Month

Nov. 8, 2010 - PRLog -- Since its June release, Happy to 102 has achieved overwhelming success worldwide. Author Lily Sarafan, Chief Operating Officer of Home Care Assistance, has been featured on a wide array of media outlets including San Francisco's ABC7 "View from the Bay”, Washington D.C’s “ The Kathryn Zox Show,” internationally syndicated “Age Wise Living”/Voice America, and at The Villages in San Jose, one of the largest senior living communities in California.

“I couldn't be more thrilled about the success of the book,” said Sarafan “If every reader incorporates just one lifestyle change to promote healthy longevity in their lives, Happy to 102 will have made a world of difference. Perhaps we can look forward to mini Okinawas throughout North America one day soon.”

Sarafan and co-authors Kathy Johnson, PhD and James Johnson, PhD, wrote Happy to 102 to provide healthy lifestyle tips to younger adults and seniors alike. Based on the well-known Okinawa Centenarian Study, Happy to 102 spells out precisely what it takes to delay or escape Alzheimer's and other chronic diseases, slow down the aging process, and enjoy better health in our senior years. It lists explicit factors, such as diet, exercise, sociability, mental challenge and sense of purpose that affect longevity. Chapters include, among others, “You Age What You Eat” and “The Psychology of Living to 102.”

The book’s Acknowledgment section reads, “To the centenarians around the world who inspire us. To the seniors throughout North America we feel privileged to serve each day.” Home Care Assistance is the only senior care agency to emphasize healthy longevity – a combination of lifespan and healthspan. With a focus on aging in place with in-home care, Happy to 102 inspires us all to live happier, healthier lives at any age.

Based on the success of Happy to 102 and demand for even more information, Home Care Assistance has decided to release its second book –The Home Care Revolution—in July of 2010.
