The Sage-ing Guild is a networking organization for professionals trained in the Sage-ing philosophy of Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi. Members of the Guild lead discussions, classes and workshops designed for persons interested in aging consciously and with purpose.
Sage-ing® is the process of approaching aging as a positive journey filled with wisdom, learning and possibility. It affirms the importance of the older years and teaches how to harvest life's wisdom and transform it into a legacy for future generations. Sage-ing addresses spiritual development, interpersonal relationships, communication skills, service work and social aspects of aging.
Sage-ing provides practical tools and exercises for growing older with wisdom, maturity and understanding. The Sage-ing principles are not specific to any faith or denomination and will serve to enhance spiritual maturity in any faith practice.
We support our Professional Guild members by exchanging ideas, sharing best practices and related information through a password protected website, a member Listserve, as well as at regional and national gatherings some of which are open to the public. We welcome others to join us either as Associate members or by providing links to like-minded groups in our quest of "Changing the paradigm from Aging to Sage-ing®".
The Guild grows by training new Sage-ing Leaders in a year-long comprehensive Professional Sage-ing Leader training program. For more information about the Guild and its members, refer to About Us.
