Summary:
Using examples from his practice as a psychotherapist and teacher who lectures widely on the soul of medicine and spirituality, Thomas Moore argues for a new vision of ageing: as a dramatic series of initiations, rather than a diminishing experience, one that each of us has the tools, experience, maturity, fulfillment, to live out. Subjects include: Why melancholy is a natural part of ageing, and how to accept it, rather than confuse it with depression, the vital role of the elder and mentor in the lives of younger people, the many paths of spiritual growth and learning that open later in life, sex and sensuality, and building new communities and leaving a legacy.
