Conscious Living, Conscious Aging: Claiming the Gifts of Elderhood (10th Anniversary Edition)

By Ron Pevny

Book Overview

In this newly revised and updated edition of Conscious Living, Conscious Aging, you will find an empowering guide with practical tools to help live a passionate, fulfilling, growth-oriented life.

The baby boomer generation is reaching retirement age with unprecedented good health and resources, and is no longer satisfied with their parents' approach to aging. Many older adults are seeking an empowering vision for their future but find that hard to come by in a world that glorifies youth and has largely forgotten the gifts that can accompany the life stage of elderhood. With this expanded and updated 10th anniversary edition of Conscious Living, Conscious Aging, you will find a contemporary manual filled with practices and tools to help you navigate your elder years with purpose and clarity.

Ron Pevny's provocative model of "conscious eldering" opens the door to the rich possibilities of intentionally growing into elderhood, as contrasted with merely growing old. Through advice, practices, and personal stories, this book will help you distill wisdom from your many years of life experience, navigate loss and grief, identify new passions and goals, and remain engaged and relevant as you enter life's later chapters, creating a lasting legacy and a healthier world for the generations to follow. It's time to engage with family, community, your spiritual source, and the world, which needs your talents. Don't just grow old. Aim high and claim the gifts of elderhood.
