b'Special Guest\\xa0~ Paul R. Lipton, author of the book, Hour of the Wolf: An Experiment in Ageless Living\\nhttp://theagelessexperiment.com/\\n No day is ever wasted that can be lived consciously and to the full. 2 a.m. The hour of the wolf. You wake up filled with regrets, and haunted by dashed dreams, wondering what went wrong. For Paul Lipton, a successful lawyer in his sixties, his mind\\u2019s howling in the darkness reminded him that time was slipping away. Perhaps partly because both his parents had died when they were young, and because he had already experienced his own serious health crisis, he wanted to be sure to live each day to the fullest. He decided he would start viewing each day afresh and in the now as a do-over, each night dying and each morning being reborn.\\n \\xa0 His philosophy was to say, \\u201cI am me today,\\u201d and ask, \\u201cHow do I choose to live in the now?\\u201d His solution to these sleepless nights became an adventure, and an experiment in ageless living. To silence the howls of the wolf, Lipton took off in the footsteps of his fictional hero, Larry Darrell in W. Somerset Maugham\\u2019s novel The Razor\\u2019s Edge. His journey took him first to the Himalayas. He then continued his external and internal travels that included crossing the ice fields of Mont Blanc, a shamanic retreat at the Esalen Institute in Big Sur, California, and motorcycle adventures across Florida\\u2019s Alligator Alley, the Rocky Mountains, and the back roads of North Carolina. In the process, he discovered he was not a prisoner of the past. His changed perspective had given him a new lease on life.\\nhttp://shellyrwilson.com\\nshelly@shellyrwilson.com'
