. An event introducing Sage-ing in Brighton and Southern England

"AWAKENING THE SAGE WITHIN"

A one-day event offered by Sage-ing® International  Saturday March 17, 2018 - 9:00 a.m to 5:00 p.m.

The Program :   Today, most people approaching elderhood can expect to live another 20 or 30 years. But how do you want to live those years? Sage-ing (also known as Spiritual Eldering or Conscious Aging) is a model for engaging the elder years more deliberately, more joyfully, and more compassionately. Sage-ing can help us to develop a balanced plan for eldering that is personally fulfilling and also beneficial to others.  During this highly interactive workshop, we will introduce Sage-ing concepts including life review, forgiveness work and issues surrounding mortality. We will explore images of aging and the role of spiritual development in the capstone chapter of life. Finally, we will begin development of a personalized plan for our own eldering, including service to others and leaving a legacy.   Besides being an excellent introduction to Sage-ing concepts, this event fulfills the entry prerequisite for the Certified Sage-ing Leader (CSL) training program. Our materials are not specific to any religious denomination, but serve to enhance spiritual maturity for persons who embrace any faith or humanistic practice. Based on the best-selling book:   From Age-ing to Sage-ing: A Profound New Vision of Growing Older    by Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi.

Presenter: Jerome Kerner is a Certified Sage-ing Leader, he has received advanced certification in Gestalt psychotherapy from Southern Connecticut University, Transgenerational Family Systems Hellinger Institute Washington DC, as well as retreats and training with the Center for Conscious Eldering and Sage-ing International. As an architect for over fifty years Jerome has learned to see and honor the uniqueness in each person. Now as an octogenarian Jerome loves sharing the purpose, passion and meaning he has discovered through Sage-ing work.
