The Midlife Crisis : How to Find Your Way Out

People entering middle age often experience a malaise that forces them to question their life decisions and sense of purpose. The midlife crisis phenomenon is a natural result of changes in the brain that experts believe can be slowed with increased levels of intellectual curiosity. We interviewed experts and media personalities to discover the most effective ways to beat the middle-age blues and find new joy in life. One practice that's recently become popular encourages people to look back on their lives and write down their personal histories. Another involves sorting through their anxieties and uneasy feelings to work out what really matters to them in life.
