This gathering is for men and women who wish to share good company with other pilgrims on the Way, focusing together on topics of maturing wisdom and spiritual practice. Explorations include:
• “First-half spirituality” as distinct from “Second-half ”
• The shift from simply growing older to maturing in wisdom and grace
• What we learn from the 4 Stages of Life from the Vedic perspective
• The dream life in the Second half

• The deeper wisdom of the body . . . and more.
Short teaching talks by Regina and Angelon will be integrated with meditation, music, guided journal writing; gentle movement and group sharing.
