As the author of several books including, "Handbook to a Happier Life" and "52 Ways to a Happier Life," local author Jim Donovan has developed more than a few ideas for dealing with stress and the pressures that accompany the holidays. 

Donovan has been delivering motivating and empowering programs throughout the county for almost two decades.

Don't miss the fun and empowering evening with the guy who was tagged, "The Original Feel Good Guy" by one business executive, due to his unique ability to make people feel better about themselves.

The event starts at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 4 at Doylestown Bookshop.

Don't Let an Old Person Move Into Your Body:

Have you ever noticed that some people age well, becoming older with grace and dignity, looking vibrant and alive and remaining physically and mentally active well into old age? Frank Lloyd Wright, quoted above, was still designing when he passed on at 92. 

Others, it seems, begin getting old in their youth. What makes the difference? 

Why is such a large portion of our society aging so poorly? Why are hospitals and nursing homes overcrowded and many older people just barely alive?  

Is this a natural progression or can we actually alter the way we age? 

In Don't Let an Old Person Move Into Your Body, you will be asked to reevaluate and question the preconceived notions you have about aging and the commonly accepted beliefs about health. You will be asked to examine your attitudes and beliefs and come to understand the important role they play in how we age. You will learn ways to age without becoming old.

Handbook to a Happier Life:  

When Jim Donovan’s successful career in video and broadcast television led to a personal meltdown, he went through rehab, pulled himself up from the bottom, and started his life over.

He then began giving seminars on “how to change your life” based on the simple yet effective ideas that had worked for him in his recovery. Don’t make big changes, Donovan suggests, just start slowly and move bit-by-bit toward your goal.

In addition to goal-setting and goal-keeping, Donovan discusses writing personal affirmations that work, cultivating gratitude, disciplining the mind, and helping others to achieve their dreams. These easy-to-grasp concepts have helped thousands of people turn their lives around.
