Botox, Skin Peels and Anti-Ageing

Added 06 June 2007 View full list    Print version    
Growing old -- it's not something most people like to think about. Yet it is a reality of life.

In a newly released documentary from the award-winning EDGES TV series, Mal Fletcher asks, 'In an age of ageism, botox treatments, skin peels and cosmetic surgery on demand, how should we approach growing old?'

This fascinating 28 minute film explores the various techniques available to slow the ageing process and delves into approaches and concepts that might allow people to age with grace, wisdom and courage.

Among Mal's conclusions is the belief that, 'Because we live in such a narcissistic age, we may need to remind ourselves from time to time that long life is only meaningful when it’s a good life – when it’s invested in something that lives on when we die.'

You can watch the programme online (28 mins WMV stream), at edges.tv.

We'd love to hear your views on the subject and your thoughts on the show generally via the feedback section of the site!

Mal, I just wanted to thank you for visiting Abundant Life and RN06. I am a psychiatrist in the NHS and agree very much with what you were saying about the secular services coming to us in 20 years for advice on how to do things. A group of us are starting a ministry to be ready to be asked!

We've been watching the EDGES DVDs in our youth service on Sundays & they've helped us with some questions we had. We love them!

Your new book is a must - having read a few of the excerpts available online, it is one I will be ordering. Gen-Xers, the future is ours. Thanks Mal for your Godly guidance and belief.
