My goal for later life is to Age with Spirit. Through daily or weekly writing we learn to attend to the present moment, reflect on our past, and make wiser choices for the future.
My monthly Blog Aging with Spirit will profile older adults who write as part of their vital aging, stories and poems by older adults (from Writing Down Our Years book series and elsewhere), the benefits of writing for self and others, and strategies for facilitating writing.
I invite you to learn more about writing in later life through the Writing Down Our Years book series, Resources, and Blog Archives on this website.
