Aging with Intention

Wisdom traditions across cultures describe an important role for elders in the wellbeing of the community and offer guidance for the journey of those on the path to becoming wise elders. However, in our American culture, ageism is rampant and there is little guidance for how to age well. This program will examine the psychosocial-spiritual aspects of wellbeing in aging and explore the ways in which individuals can intentionally foster personal growth in mind, body and spirit as they age. Based upon interdisciplinary research related to healthy aging, we will examine the personal, interpersonal, and communal tools, resources, and strategies that can support older adults in aging with wellness and wisdom, while also inviting participants to reflect upon the ways they might enhance their own wellbeing, and the holistic wellbeing of their clients, as they age.
