The Elderquest: Living Consciously while Growing Older -- Berta Parrish

Thursday, January 18, 10:00am - 12:00pm

United Methodist Church in SLO

$5 for LLCC members, $10 for non-members

The evening of our lives is the time for the elder's quest with its distinct set of trials and triumphs that can be met by using different tactics and abilities from those used in earlier stages of life.

By now, we have learned that we cannot control what happens to us and our loved ones, but we can choose how we respond to these circumstances. We can transform the inevitable physical, psychological, and spiritual challenges of aging into opportunities for growth and satisfaction.

After you hear a brief overview of the principles and practices of conscious aging, you will, in this workshop, take the first step by re-framing some of your unexamined, self-limiting thoughts, beliefs, and emotions about aging into life-expanding ones.

Come ready to reflect, to share, and to be re-vitalized by new possibilities.
