Spirited Ageing: Cultivating the Art of Renewal Dr Juliet Batten

Do you see ageing as a curse or a gift? Preparing for ageing is as important as preparing for childbirth, yet most people enter into the last stage of life without a clear intention. In Spirited Ageing you will learn how to embrace ageing so that it lifts you into a whole new stage of growth. Dr. Juliet Batten brings together the skills of a storyteller, scholar and psychotherapist. She includes a group of contributors, who responded to her questions for each of the ten chapters. With the breakthrough ?Star? model she powerfully redefines ageing so that it becomes an initiation into a path of deep satisfaction and inspiration. In each chapter she offers three ?supports?, together with practical exercises and helpful examples. From Passion and Possessions to Dementia and Dying, her compassionate guidance takes the reader through the essential steps in preparing for a fulfilling phase of the life cycle.
