About this Event
There is a big difference between simply becoming old and aging consciously--aging with intent. This retreat, for people in or approaching their senior years (55+), provides a dynamic experiential introduction to conscious aging and the types of inner work that are important on the path toward becoming a conscious elder. Such an elderhood is a role that is consciously chosen and grown into through preparation at all levels— physical, psychological and spiritual. We invite you to join us for an inspiring week on the Emerald Isle, a land with strong earth energy and a long, long history of being home to spiritual questers—an ideal setting for supporting the inner work we will engage in.
This retreat will help you address questions such as:
· How can I transform fear of aging into anticipation of the rich possibilities of elderhood?
· What does it mean to become an elder at this time of profound cultural transition?
· How can the elder third of my life be the pinnacle of my emotional and spiritual development?
· How am I called to be of service to the human and earth community as I age?
· How can I strengthen my resilience as I face the inevitable losses and challenges of aging
· What inner work do I need to do to age consciously and prepare to fully claim and embody my elderhood
THE FORMAT
Using reflective time in nature, life review and legacy work, ceremony, sharing councils, and a day-long solo, we focus on the major themes of conscious eldering: the dynamics of life transition; the power of our beliefs: release and healing of the past; living with purpose and service; community; and spiritual deepening. Empowered by strong supportive community, skilled guidance, and the heart opening power of the natural world, you will have an opportunity to let go of old beliefs, attachments, and attitudes that no longer serve you, and to get in touch with expanded vision for, and commitment to, your potential as a conscious elder.
