Ageless Living Retreat
With Anne Sussman
August 19 - 21, 2022
A Retreat for Women 50 Years Young and Beyond
RETREAT BY INVITED PRESENTER
We live in a youth-obsessed society that offers us only the “Declinist Paradigm” for aging. It’s time to change that! Learn how daily spiritual practices can help you to age with grace, joy and resilience—even in the face of the loss and change that inevitably come as we age.
Anne is an inspiration as a teacher and a friend. she motivates me to be the best version of myself, and to work on my practice. Going with her to the beautiful Dharmakaya Center was just what I needed!
