‘Elder’. What images, feeling, memories does this 5-letter word bring to mind? What are my own thoughts and feelings about being called an ‘elder’? Who am I now? How do I want to create this phase of my life? What is most meaningful?
We will be following in part a process created by Alicia Pace that Ashram senior residents explored together in 2024.
This Fall 5-week series will be phase 1 and the continuation, phase 2, will be offered in the new year.
