Eldering - by Gary Alan Shockley (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Reframe your thoughts on aging and embrace the possibilities that only come with eldering.

We know every stage of life holds immense value and purpose. But how do we continue to find and live out that purpose as we age? Entering a life stage that is generally regarded as a time of decline and insignificance we have a choice-we can simply grow older, or we can step into the role of elders. A sacred responsibility to care for others, offer guidance, and engage deeply with both the community and the world around us, eldering is an active process, signifying movement, passion, and intentionality.

In Eldering, author Gary Alan Shockley helps readers unlock their potential for personal and spiritual growth through the journey of eldering. Born from a combination of lived experience, knowledge, and the lessons learned through adversity, eldering offers an opportunity to embrace the best version of ourselves. Free from past limitations, we harness the kind of wisdom that only comes with age and fully engage in meaningful contributions. Whether seeking guidance or encouragement in the face of the challenges that come with growing older, Shockley reframes our thoughts on aging, illustrating how the best is yet to come.

Designed for personal reflection or for use in a group setting, Eldering provides inspiration and support for those seeking to live their later years with intention, connection, and a sense of fulfillment.
