What’s important is taking the first step in moving from aging to sage-ing. Whether you do your eldering work alone or in socialized settings at workshops and meditation retreats, or through solo meditation and journal writing, remember that the work of integrating body, mind, and soul requires time and commitment…you can begin shaping your life into a noble masterpiece.”
– Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi
To support you on what Reb Zalman refers to as “this pioneering journey into your unmapped potential,” whether you are young or old, Sage-ing® International offers 3 categories of educational programs, each with its own unique flavor.
The Signature Programs
serve as an excellent introduction to sage-ing’s core topics (Images of Aging, Life Review, Forgiveness, Facing Mortality, Legacy, and Service). They provide the tools and resources needed to explore the aging years in order to navigate the second half of life with greater understanding and purpose.
The World Wisdom Programs
allow participants to explore cultural traditions and perspectives across the globe on aging and spirituality to deepen their understanding of their own aging years and to enhance their “Sage-ing tool-box.”
The Enrichment Programs
supplement and broaden SI’s range of educational opportunities by inviting guest presenters who are accomplished authors, innovators, Sage-ing® Leaders and other creative professionals, to facilitate workshops and webinars that reflect their areas of study and mastery of topics related to aging more consciously.

How shall we envision a life of purpose and presence in midlife and beyond? Living in a culture that tends to devalue and dismiss aging, how do we create an individual and collective model for what midlife and eldering humans have to offer to current and future generations?
This webinar will review theories of aging in psychology, spirituality, and culture. We will then envision how the current cohort of midlife and aging humans can embody the wisdom of their lives and change the cultural view of the aging process. Finally, there will be a practice session for the embodiment of one’s own wisdom and worth.
If you register for the series late or miss a webinar you will receive links to the recordings of those webinars.
