When you turn 60, many things change that have to do with both the emotional and psychological level as well as the physical. Experts, in fact, do not agree and have not been able to give an exact number that indicates entry into old age or third age. It can be when you reach retirement age or when you turn 70 years old. Each person is a world and this is explained by the ‘father’ of resilience Boris Cyrulnik.
A neurologist and psychiatrist by profession, the French scientist has published several articles, one of which is included in the magazine ‘cuerpomente’. He bases his deductions on his personal experience as he built his own resilience when he lost his parents during World War II and, at a very young age, saved his life by hiding.

Then he realized what had happened to him. “Resilience is starting a new development after a trauma,” he noted. It is not about leaving aside what has been suffered, nor about appearing and being the strong and perfect person that society wants.
Before, it was normal not to show emotions, although that has changed. You can be wounded in the soul, due to a bad experience, and at that moment, turn to a support network. And this is what resilience is about.
Retirement and 60 years, memory reclaims its space
When you turn 60, it is time to consider the role that memory plays. Although exceptional cases have been seen such as that of María Dolores, a 95-year-old studentThe truth is that many people fear the moment of reaching that age. Physical resistance is lower, and memory is gaining ground.
“The certainties that have sustained our lives are beginning to crack,” explains the neurologist. It is no longer so important to have, but rather to know how to take advantage of what you have and live a full life.
“Many have lost loved ones, dreams, social status but they continue to move forward due to their inner strength.”
And when we turn 60 “we cannot deceive ourselves, the body, memory and emotions speak together without hesitation.” Here those who have worked and established their life purposes in the effort gain strength, leaving aside those who have prioritized success or have devoted themselves to work in an obsessive and urgent manner.
What is resilience?
Before this well-known popularizer, a researcher named Emmy Werner began studying children who grew up in difficult conditions. Then he proposed that resilience is not something fixed, but rather it is changing, a process that happens throughout people’s lives.
According to the American Phycological Association, resilience is the process of adapting well to adversity, trauma or tragedy, threat or significant sources of tension.
Resilience, for this organism, is ordinary and does not mean that we are not capable of experiencing sensations such as anguish or anxiety. It is common especially when one has gone through significant tragedies. It is essential to establish relationships, avoid seeing crises as something difficult to overcome or accept that changes are part of life.
