Leaving a Legacy: How Do I Want To Be Remembered?

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.

In our youth-adoring and speed-worshipping culture, older people can’t help but believe that worth declines with age. As we have less control over our own lives, we feel fearful and isolated.


Our issues are not unique, though we seldom talk with others about them. We’re fearful of suffering as we become more physically frail and subject to life-threatening illness. We fear being a burden on those who are younger whom we love, and we fear, perhaps most of all, a meaningless life.


In this workshop, we’ll explore through meditation, writing, and music the oft-forgotten need we all have to be remembered. We’ll learn about Lars Tornstam’s gift to the aging and even share some humor. Join us to celebrate endings and beginnings.
