Ashton Applewhite- This Chair Rocks: How Ageism Warps Our View of Long Life
Think you know what lies ahead? That depression, diapers, and dementia are inevitable? Think again. Part monologue, part consciousness-raiser, in This Chair Rocks Ashton Applewhite dispels myth after myth about late life and exposes the ageism that underlies all the hand-wringing. Her message is as funny as it is fierce, and it just might change the way you envision the rest of
your life. Ashton has been recognized by the New York Times, National Public Radio, and the American Society on Aging as an expert on ageism, and is the author of This Chair Rocks: A Manifesto Against Ageism.
Kyrie S. Carpenter- PLAYful Aging: Becoming More Curious Than Afraid
Aging is inevitable, fear is preventable. We know that resisting aging increases suffering. But in our anti-aging culture, many Americans never learn how to age. Aging consultant and coach, Kyrie S. Carpenter created the P.L.A.Y. Method to help change that by offering a new perspective on aging as an aspect of life to be embraced. Her interactive talk will reveal the limitations
of our conditioned beliefs and show us how to cultivate skills that increase the quality of life as we age.
Marvin Isrealow- Moving into Mindfulness: Navigating the Challenges of Aging with Presence
Ten years ago, encountering the book “From Ageing to Sageing” inspired Marvin Israelow to re-vision his life and, at the age of 50, leave a successful business career to study the practices of meditation and mindfulness. Marvin now teaches these skills at Wise Aging workshops around the country where he shares
these powerful pathways to greater physical, emotional and spiritual health. Marvin will show us the many ways in which practicing mindfulness and meditation can help us face the inevitable challenges of aging with a sense of acceptance and peace.
