Aging in a Soulful Way

Overview

Meet the shadows of age, and attune to the soul’s longings and explore meaning beyond doing.

In this live webinar course, Connie Zweig, known for her book Meeting the Shadow, will extend her views to later life. Life after 50 can feel like we’re in mid-air between trapezes, unable to let go of the past or see future possibilities. A depth psychological approach to the late-life identity crisis requires us to turn within. If we complete the rite of passage, shifting our identities from our role to the soul, we can release the heroic ego’s strivings, find renewal in an identity beyond role, and become who we truly are, perhaps for the first time.
