Overview
Psychologist and best-selling author Charles Garfield shares an uplifting vision as he takes us on a journey of a lifetime.
Some of the most profound growth of our lives can happen in the home stretch, the years after age sixty or so. Itās a time when we can finally crystallize the meaning of what weāve been and done and fully expand into the self weāve always intended to be. But, says psychologist Charles Garfield, that can only happen if we first loosen the grip of the life weāve led so far, the one thatās been focused outwardlyāon activity, achievement, and the idea of successāand let our souls lead the way.
InĀ Our Wisdom Years, Dr. Garfield skillfully and practically guides readers through nine tasks that can transform the struggles of aging, bringing fulfillment, joy, and serenity. Drawing on the understandings that come from both his work as acclaimed āsuccess guruā in the 1980s and the truths distilled from volunteering with those at the end of life, Garfield offers a fresh, uplifting vision of the wholeness that awaits us.
Dr. Garfield shares how we can gracefully let go of the younger selves weāve been and walk through the opening that keeps beckoning toward this soul-driven version of later life. He encourages us to take the risk of being fully alive as our years pass. This is no small taskāaging is not for the faint of heart! The beautiful paradox of growing older is that none of the gifts of age are available without the kind of loss that forces us to confront mortality in a way we canāt deny. In the face of loss, weāre changed and expanded by truths that come from the heart, not the mind. We learn that weāre more than our bodies, part of something much larger than we are, and that love and kindness matter most of all.
