As we age, changes in our bodies, activities and relationships can be distressing and disorienting, challenging us to find ways of seeing, thinking and acting that bring a sense of meaning, being and value.  An important part of this development is appreciating the spiritual dimension of our lives; our losses can be an opportunity to re-orient ourselves, to notice and respond to those things that are most ultimately real and valuable. 
Aging and Spirituality

This class will explore ways the spiritual dimension can manifest in our lives and sustain us as we mature.  It will be structured as a seminar, presenting some ideas about the nature of spirituality and inviting participants’ discussion of their own aging-related challenges, and ideas and practices they have found helpful in dealing with those challenges.

In recent years Steve has been particularly interested in better understanding the nature of spirituality and the ways we can make it more central to our lives.
