Open Mind, Open Heart: Evolving the nature of Eldering with Alain Gauthier of the Regenerative Elder Process

In a culture where age is, at best, ignored, how do we rebuild a cohort of genuine Elders fit for the rapid transitions of the 21st Century: those who can combine the wisdom of wide boundary perspectives with the humility that allows flexibility of thinking, feeling and being?

Elder wisdom comes not from the accumulation of knowledge, but from reflecting on life… This work becomes our gift to the future.
—Toko-pa Turner, Belonging: Remembering Ourselves Home #elders #eldering
So many people have what we call a ‘mid-life crisis’…; suddenly they realize they have been living in false belonging their whole lives… However, if we learn at an earlier age to attend to our longing, to take the risks necessary to live in alignment with our soul’s calling, then we are preparing ourselves to be true elders in the second half of life.

…it is never too early to practice at becoming an elder. Conscious eldering is about doing the inner work, attending to the soul life before it comes for you.
