520 _aThis article provides a synthesis on the role of self-esteem and self-compassion in healthy aging. Healthy aging and successful aging are related but distinct concepts, both emphasizing positive aging trajectories. While healthy aging integrates a holistic view of physical, psychological, and social well-being, successful aging focuses on preserving functional capacities. Cognitive, motor, and sensory deficits may occur with age; however, it is now known that various lifestyle factors (physical activity, cognitive stimulation, a balanced diet, and diverse social interactions) can reduce these detrimental effects of aging and promote successful aging. A satisfactory self-perception also appears crucial for healthy aging. Optimizing self-esteem and promoting self-compassion could therefore be an effective strategy to address the challenges of aging. We further explore the potential of self-perception as a means of intervention for enhancing the well-being of older adults.
