Last Chance to Register for Growing Whole, Not Old Aging Wisely!

  "Aging is not lost youth but a new stage of opportunity and strength." ~ Betty Friedan

Oftentimes our culture presents a view of aging that marginalizes us as individuals and wise elders. We’re pressured to disguise the visible signs of aging, to accept age-ist euphemisms in place of respectful terms for elders, and to retreat to the edges of life to make room for younger people. But these behaviors diminish the wisdom and power we have spent a lifetime accumulating. And now, this marginalization may be manifesting itself even more dramatically – in our physical isolation.

Sage-ing provides skills, philosophies, perspectives and tools to improve the latter part of our lives - not by trying to pretend that we are not growing older, but by using strength, minds and power in numbers. We are charged with recognizing the value we offer, while adapting in practical, positive ways to the changes and challenges in our lives.  Sage-ing® (also known as Spiritual Eldering or Conscious Aging) offers a new and viable approach to growing older.  It is a model for aging more deliberately, more joyfully, and more compassionately.

Growing Whole, Not Old
Aging Wisely

"It was through the experience of losing many loved friends and family members at very young ages that forced me to consider the finite nature of life and how to live it going forward – with the process and practice of Sage-ing." ~ Your facilitator, Deborah Briggs

Deborah's Sage-ing skills are rooted by her MA in organizational psychology from Columbia University and the study and practice of spiritual, physical and intellectual approaches to aging with joy, compassion and meaning. She has created numerous NYC based businesses and nonprofits in Los Angeles and Florida – all focusing on helping people find their power and best selves and putting their wisdom into action.
