The Wise Aging course, developed under the auspices of the Institute for Jewish Spirituality, offers social, emotional and Jewish spiritual insights to help individuals aged 60+ to meet the challenges of "the third chapter" with a sustaining spirit. Rabbi Pam Wax, a trained Wise Aging facilitator, will offer Part I of the course for 6 sessions on Monday afternoons April 21 and 28, May 5 and 19, and June 9 and 16. Wise Aging Part II will be offering in the fall. Please purchase a copy of the textbook "Wise Aging: Living with Joy, Resilience, and Spirit," co-written by Rabbi Rachel Cowan and Dr. Linda Thal and read the Introduction and Chapter 1 before the first session. The course is grounded in Jewish spiritual practices such as meditation, journaling, and prayer. There is a fee of $75 for non-members of KI and TAA.
