Many of us navigating the years beyond midlife report high levels of self-acceptance, freedom, and joy. However, there can also be bouts of second-guessing and regret and the occasional longing to be reminded that you’re not in this alone.

Walking participants through the most uplifting, passionate, as well as dangerous passages on the path of aging spiritually, Carol Orsborn provides us with a first look at her newest book Spiritual Aging: Weekly Reflections for Embracing Life (Inner Traditions, December 2024).

In addition to showing the way to apply the principles of spiritual aging to your own life through individual reflection, this interactive webinar will provide a launching pad for Sage-ing International’s exciting new year-long immersive program working with Carol’s book in both monthly sessions with the author and the opportunity to join a Spiritual Aging Study and Support Group (SASS), led by a Certified Sage-ing Leader, designed to make 2025 a year of not just growing older, but whole. Details will be shared in the webinar.

Through reflection, journaling and discussion, participants will assess their own strengths and opportunities for growth in regards to aging as a spiritual practice. The areas include: age-related losses, physical challenges, letting go of old identities, ambition versus self-care, overcoming regret, transforming anxiety to enthusiasm, and marginalization to love of solitude, individuation and freedom and more.

Orsborn’s wise and compassionate teachings are seasoned with quotes and stories about mystics, sages, and old souls from ancient through contem-porary times who illuminate the path to living a full life while embracing old age. The connecting thread is the reminder of how far participants have come and that, regardless of your circumstances, aging can be a life stage with spiritual meaning and purpose of its own.
