Description
Prison or Sanctuary? Those who have not ripened in years and attained a mature spirituality and healthy mindset will view this time of aging as an “over the hill” experience. Those of us who are living into the autumn and winter of life with grace, compassion, and a commitment to embrace the gifts of this season can experience it as a time to discover the holiness in ordinary life. Using information from a variety of spiritual traditions, meditation and poetry, we will explore the richness and freedom that is only possible at this stage of life. In this 4-part interactive seminar, we will have a taste of the good news of aging as we examine 4 themes:
- Moving into the experience of aging: how does a mature spirituality invite me to live in ways that were not possible earlier in life?
- Letting go of beliefs, wounds and old ways of being that have outlived their usefulness, with grace and gratitude.
- What will I discover when I face the fact of my mortality? How can I bless those I leave behind?
- What does it mean to be a wise elder of instead of just an old person?
Come join us as we discover the graces of aging together!
