Through participatory activities including guided meditation, creative journaling, intimate conversation, movement, song and storytelling, you'll have the chance to discover the sage in yourself and explore how you can apply the concepts and tools we'll practice as you move into the next phase of life. This retreat is approved as a pre-requisite for those seeking to become Certified Sage-ing® Leaders.
Facilitators Sandy Sabersky, MS P.T. and Debra Alderman, MA Ed., are both Certified Sage-ing® Leaders and have worked together teaching monthly conscious aging workshops and annual retreats in the Seattle area and the Pacific Northwest for the past two years. Together they have decades of experience as adult educators.
