How to find the spiritual riches that come in the final stage of life.

Old age is not a time of death: it is a phase of life. On The Spiritual Elder, you will gain a new understanding of old age, based on Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi's joy-filled work at the Spiritual Eldering Project. His work reveals that the final period of life can be just as pleasurable - just as full of significant moments - as every other stage of our mortal journey. Old age, he teaches, is an opportunity to find satisfaction that we will never again experience. Now he shares life-affirming wisdom that has brought a renewed sense of optimism and meaning into the lives of seniors from all faiths and backgrounds. Join him to learn more about:

• The theory and practice of spiritual eldering - how it helps not only seniors, but their families and friends as well
• A simple exercise to resolve old fears and anxieties
• The elder "harvest" - turning past sorrows into present joy
• Leaving the most valuable legacy of all (which requires only a paper and pencil)

The Spiritual Elder is for seniors, their families, and care-givers-anyone interested in learning new ways of making each day of life a unique and fulfilling experience.
