The 120 Club Living the Good Life for 120 Years

By Philip Rose

In his book, The 120 Club - Living the Good Life for 120 Years Phil Rose wants us to imagine that living to 120 years is possible. He imagined this long before consulting the longevity experts, many of whom had reached the same conclusion: living to 120 is the natural life span for humans. In The 120 Club - Living the Good Life for 120 Years Phil Rose presents his Ten Wisdoms for living a balanced and rational life. His ideas stand in contrast to much of what is out of balance in our world.

In addition to the more widely accepted and discussed areas of nutritional supplements, diet, and exercise, Phil Roses program of ten wisdoms includes an in-depth analysis of:

Learning effective and practical ways to reduce stress and heal emotional hurts.

Managing money and finding meaningful work.

Living outside the box through personal creativity and play.

Enjoying the rewards and inner peace of an authentic spiritual life.

Participating in the essential healing powers of Mother Earth.

Gaining and keeping long time friendships alive.

Using alternative healers and Western doctors to repair and heal the body.

Experiencing personal power to transform the world.

The 120 Club Living the Good Life for 120 Years is not a quick-fix book but one that is meant to accompany you over a lifetime. There is no pre-requisite to join The 120 Club other than the total and joyful decision to transform your now long and healthy life.

The 120 Club is THE survival manual for this century

Bob Bodgan Professor of Sociology and Education Syracuse University

There are books aplenty that urge us to fix the world and as many that guide us in healing the body and soul. In these pages Phil Rose wisely shows that to be fully alive is to be fully engaged spiritually, politically, and personally. Read on, live well, live long.

This book is a compilation of nine short books written between 2007 and 2021, in the ninth and tenth decades of the author''s life. It contains his spiritual philosophy expressed in simple language accessible to all. The book tells of what the author has come to believe after a lifetime of seeking for the meaning of life, and how one should live that life at its optimum level. He explains that this cannot be proved: it is ultimately not susceptible to the usual scientific methods, for it lies in a different realm of reality which has to be experienced inwardly. However, its main tenets lie behind world religions and go back to mankind`s earliest thinkings and feelings. Believe it or not as you will, suggests the author. All he can say is that it has sustained him throughout his life and has made that life harmonious and joyous. The teachings of which he speaks are often referred to as the Ancient Wisdom. He first came across them at the age of twenty-five when he met a man who was well versed in that ancient wisdom which is to be found woven throughout major religions, philosophies and mystical teachings. This man was Eugene Halliday, who, the author says, was said to be one of the great spirits of the modern age. The phrase he used to describe the ultimate result of these teachings was ''Reflexive Self-Consciousness''. This, the author explains, was the same message taught by those of old, although expressed by his mentor Halliday in more modern terms. A wise but modest man, the author says that he is no academic or scholar or learned man - adding, with gentle humour, that it is written that an academic is an ass with a load of books on his back. He writes for the average person - of any age - who has no time left to think on these things but who may like to know more. He writes for this person - for he is such a one himself, he says. It is this which makes his story and his accumulated wisdom both inspiring and accessible.
