Description
A Companion Guide To Aging is an exploration of the numerous realities and possibilities of elderhood. It explores the prospect of finding personal growth and meaning against the backdrop of adventure inherent in a hero's journey--with all of its trials, tribulations, and rewards. This work explores ideas, shares concerns, and considers strategies that support and enrich life as we age. The authors share their points of view as well as personal anecdotes and many supportive strategies. In addition, the writers tell a separate and enchanting tale along with each section of the book, that of Willow, an elder woman who uncovers the answers to her heartfelt questions. This book is, in some sense, a workbook designed to inspire you, to help you face challenges, to explore and grow, and to gently remind you of your innate resources. Here you are celebrated as a sacred elder-hero with all his or her authentic gifts and endless possibilities.
