Our Authentic Aging retreats came to life from my Sabbatical time that encouraged me to engage in discovering how to be true to myself and live a life that is truly important to me. Paul found embracing legacy writing helps him navigate elderhood.
To this end we have integrated the core elements of our earlier programs, to offer:
1. Authentic Aging and Legacy
2. Life Review and Reconciliation
3. Mindfulness for Authentic Aging
These retreats offer you time to share, reflect and write to uncover and gather us together around what it means to age authentically. newfutures.ca
