The world’s wisdom traditions offer us profound transformational tools for actualizing our best human qualities. Doing so for our own benefit and for the benefit of others may very well be the central spiritual task of a consciously lived life. A core principle of the conscious aging movement involves recognizing the last third of our lives as a time when we can focus more directly on this important task than at any other time in our lives.


David Chernikoff draws on Buddhist and other contemplative teachings to guide us in cultivating and celebrating the blessings of spiritual maturity. Together we create a safe, supportive learning community as we increasingly embody the wise and loving elders we each have the potential to be.

When we have the good fortune to meet and spend time with a spiritually mature elder, we often notice that they seem to maintain a certain kind of emotional balance in relation to whatever is happening around them and within them. It’s as if they’ve come to a deeply integrated understanding of the popular quip “You can’t stop the waves but you can learn to surf.”


In this final webinar of the 2024 series, we’ll look closely at what some traditions consider to be the ultimate fruition of a consciously lived life. David’s talk will address ways we can distinguish authentic equanimity from indifference and apathy. We’ll review the entire webinar series and David will lead us in an experiential exercise to help us identify and assimilate what we’ve learned from our time together.

This is the final webinar in the 2024 Sage-ing International series The Fruits of Conscious Aging, with David Chernikoff. You will be automatically registered if you have signed up for the series.

Whether you do your eldering work alone or in socialized settings at workshops and meditation retreats, or through solo meditation and journal writing, remember that the work of integrating body, mind, and soul requires time and commitment…you can begin shaping your life into a noble masterpiece.”

 – Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi

 

To support you on what Reb Zalman refers to as “this pioneering journey into your unmapped potential,” whether you are young or old, Sage-ing® International offers 3 categories of educational programs, each with its own unique flavor.

The Signature Programs

serve as an excellent introduction to sage-ing’s core topics (Images of Aging, Life Review, Forgiveness, Facing Mortality, Legacy, and Service).  They provide the tools and resources needed to explore the aging years in order to navigate the second half of life with greater understanding and purpose. 

 

The World Wisdom Programs

allow participants to explore cultural traditions and perspectives across the globe on aging and spirituality to deepen their understanding of their own aging years and to enhance their “Sage-ing tool-box.”

 

The Enrichment Programs

supplement and broaden SI’s range of educational opportunities by inviting guest presenters who are accomplished authors, innovators, Sage-ing® Leaders and other creative professionals, to facilitate workshops and webinars that reflect their areas of study and mastery of topics related to aging more consciously.
