In a fast-paced, 2-hour presentation drawing on the stories of many of the pioneers of that movement, coupled with historical photos and video clips, you will learn of the early days of Reb Zalman with the Spiritual Eldering Institute, followed by the formation of the Sage-ing Guild which is now Sage-ing International. We will celebrate Reb Zalman’s 100th birthday (and recognize the tenth anniversary of his death) and Sage-ing International’s 20th anniversary.

“Death, Dying, and the Dead: Practical lessons” with Mary Francis Drake
“Death, Dying, and the Dead: Practical lessons” with Mary Francis Drake
The mysteries of death, dying and the dead can be known by the living. Many people have had experiences with disembodied spirits (ghosts or dead people), near-death experiences, interdimensional experiences, and the thin space around death and dying. Rt. Rev. Dr. Mary Francis Drake is one such person with decades of such experience to share to validate others as well as encourage hope in the process of living well and dying wisely.
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.
