Ron Pevny – The Shift Network – Aging with Passion and Purpose

With Conscious Eldering Leader and Author
Ron Pevny

A powerful opportunity to redesign your elder years as a time of wholeness, fulfillment, meaning and impact — and as a season for living with joy, energy
and creativity.

Have you wondered how to approach your elder years in a conscious and fulfilling way?

If so, you’re in the right place.

New bodies of research show that our beliefs about aging directly impact our longevity, vitality and enthusiastic engagement with life. When we see our elder years primarily as a time of decline, marginalization or loneliness, that is what we’ll tend to create.

In our culture, there is an underlying message that once you reach retirement age, you no longer have a meaningful role. That perhaps the best you can hope for is to spend your days playing golf or spending time with your grandchildren… while letting younger folks step in to make their contributions to our world.

The result of this pervasive attitude? As you age, it can be easy to start feeling irrelevant… that your best days are behind you, and that whatever legacy you were meant to leave should already be in place. Many people also find their passion waning and lose sight of their bigger vision for the next stages of life.

Instead, what if you were to forge a vision for your aging journey that is far more empowering — one in which you approach your later years as a time in which to give some of your greatest gifts, savor the fruits of a lifetime of maturation and serve the deepest needs of our time?

In short, what if you were to look forward to your elder years in the same way that so many people in traditional and indigenous cultures do — as a time in which you harvest the love, joy and wisdom of a lifetime and occupy a place of honor, service and meaning in your family and community?

Such a vision is more empowering, exciting and motivating than simply playing golf or spending time on a beach (as wonderful as these activities might be).

It’s really about living your elder years as a full expression of your human potential.

The great news is that cultures in which elder years are anticipated with excitement often have the longest-lived, most energetic and joyful elders!

Every year now, we hear more amazing stories of elders who are stretching what is possible, from running marathons to writing groundbreaking books to creating new social movements.

Wise, engaged and caring elders are essential for our world. So many of our collective challenges are born of conflict, misunderstanding, greed, unhealed wounds and lack of foresight — all areas that elders are naturally gifted in helping to solve.

In many ways, it is our elders who are most able to create a real shift in our world to one that is healthy, sustainable, peaceful and prosperous. Elders, seen rightly, are our most undervalued and underutilized resource!

Shifting this reality begins with each of us. Are you ready to become a shining example of what is possible in your later years?

What is your story of aging? And how might it be holding you back from thriving and living a vibrant life well into your 70s, 80s, 90s and beyond?

In indigenous cultures, elders are honored as sages who are called upon for counsel because of their wider vision of the world.

Instead, the mainstream media bombards us with the message that we must do all we can to fight “the sands of time.” They make it sound as if our only option between retirement and death is to live in some sort of passive holding pattern.

What IS true is that there are many unique issues that may challenge or confront you in your efforts to “age gracefully,” including:

• Feeling isolated and a lack of community
• A loss of purpose and vision for life
• A loss of meaningful roles
• Lower energy and a lack of passion
• Physical pain and other health problems
• The deaths of friends and loved ones
• The absence of positive role models
• Unresolved emotional issues from the past
• Confusion around how to make a contribution to the world
• A lack of spiritual connection and guidance

Facing these areas with consciousness, love and an optimistic outlook is imperative to help you see beyond the disempowering stories about aging, navigate your own negative beliefs about this stage and create a truly rewarding phase of your life.

Rewrite Your Script of Aging

In this 7-week program with Ron Pevny, one of the world’s pioneers of conscious aging and eldering, you’ll learn how to rewrite the script on your aging journey so that you can live a longer, healthier and more meaningful life. And, you’ll discover how to cultivate more spiritually enriching and impactful elder years than you thought possible!

It all begins with your consciousness, which helps to shape the perspectives that lead you to thrive in body, heart, mind and soul.

Ron will help you step into a new aging paradigm that gives you a more multidimensional understanding of your potential for meaning and continued growth — and that helps you tap into reservoirs of joy and vitality.

This multidimensional perspective focuses on clarifying your path of purpose and continual growth, ensuring that your later years are a time of positive impact.

He’ll share how you can fully embrace the identity shift that being an elder represents and write a new script. In the process, you’ll learn to release unresolved emotional baggage that can sabotage your story of aging, get in touch with your authentic vision for your elderhood and tap into the energy and passion that can make that vision a reality.

As you do this, you’ll trade in feelings of isolation and loneliness for an empowered and purposeful community of allies. You’ll be poised to create a legacy of service to support a healthy world for our descendents.

And what could be a more beautiful concluding chapter for your life story than that?

Shine Brightly as You Age Consciously

The great news is that while aging does come with its share of losses, the more multidimensional vision of aging, showcased in Aging with Passion & Purpose, demonstrates that it can also include vast possibilities for true fulfillment and growth.

Ron will lay out expansive possibilities for the gifts you can contribute to the world with the wisdom of your many years.

Ron is not only an expert in the field of conscious aging, he is also a role model and mentor whom you can look to for inspiration and guidance in living a more meaningful, joyful and purpose-filled elderhood.

During your journey with him, you’ll learn that aging well is about so much more than improving your physical health, mental acuity and longevity (though you’ll gain invaluable knowledge on all this as well).

You’ll discover deep wisdom and practices that can help liberate you from unresolved “baggage” you may be carrying around from your past… which, of course, frees up more energy and empowers you to live your purpose with more joie de vivre .

In turn, you’ll also come to see that the more clarity you gain around your visions and goals for the future, the more energy and passion you’ll experience on all levels.

When you join Aging with Passion & Purpose,, you’ll learn the secrets for truly staying “young at heart” — and shining more brightly as you age consciously.

If you’re ready to step out of your comfort zone to experience what’s possible in the later chapters of your life, this is the program for you!

During the program, you’ll:

• Experience a positive vision of aging and a conscious approach to elderhood.
• Tap into purpose, passion and a higher vision for your life.
• Find a pathway for being “relevant.”
• Be inspired by stories of dynamic mentors embracing elderhood.
• Gain access to many conscious aging resources.
• Discover practices for better health, mental acuity and well-being.
• Explore the possibilities for the next stage of your life.
• Recognize how spiritual needs change as you age.
• Experience more energy as you shed your “baggage.”
• Explore your role as an elder who can help others now and leave a valuable legacy for the future.

What You’ll Discover in These 7 Weeks

In this 7-week transformational program, Ron will guide you through the fundamental steps and practices you’ll need to successfully transform your journey of aging into one of wholeness, joy and deeper meaning.

Module 1: Understanding the New Paradigm of Aging (March 23)

This session will focus on the emerging, multifaceted and empowering paradigm of aging (often called “Positive Aging”) and contrast this with the dominant cultural view of aging as a time of diminishment and loss. We will look at why this shift is happening and explore the various approaches that comprise this new paradigm. Then we’ll introduce “Conscious Aging” as a critical foundation for these various approaches — as the inner work that is critical for reaching the full potential of life’s later chapters. And we’ll explore the archetypal role of “Elder” throughout history and the importance of conscious elders in these times of crisis — and great opportunity.

In this module, you’ll learn:

• Much more is possible for your life as you age than mainstream culture recognizes.
• Aging involves loss and decline, but also opens new doors for fulfillment, growth, passion and service.
• How these potentials are best realized through conscious preparation, with the inner work of conscious aging being critical.
• Why it’s important to focus on the kind of person you want to be as you look toward what you want to do.
• There’s an archetypal call to true elderhood in each of us that is often not heard amid the disempowering messages modern culture presents about aging.
• That the work of conscious aging helps you respond to this call as you nurture your inner Elder, wisdom and unique gifts.

Module 2: Entering Elderhood with Grace (March 30)

As we leave midlife adulthood (with the key marker often being reaching retirement age), we go through a significant life transition. All life transitions involve a 3-phase dynamic of severance, neutral zone and new beginning. If we support this process of change within, we release disempowering old emotional baggage and enter a new life chapter with a clear vision. Rites of Passage, whether structured or not, have throughout history supported the journey from one life stage to another, and are reemerging today as important aspects of conscious aging.

In this module, you’ll learn:

• How the journey from midlife adulthood into life’s later chapters is a significant life transition for your psyche, often heralded by reaching retirement age (whether you retire or not).
• All life transitions involve the 3-stage dynamic of severance (ending), neutral zone (in between who we have been and who we can become), and the emergence of new beginnings.
• You have a choice of whether and how to support this transition in yourself, or to neglect it to society’s detriment.
• About the dynamics of this transition from rites of passage work, both traditional and contemporary.

Module 3: Healing the Past to Empower
the Future (April 6)

If we are going to enter our later chapters with clear vision and vital energy, it is important that we review our lives up to now to see what will serve us moving forward, and to heal our past so we aren’t encumbered by old baggage on the journey ahead. For many of us, regret is a crucial dynamic that calls to be healed. Forgiveness, of others and ourselves, is critical, too. Healing our past is greatly facilitated by examining and rewriting the stories we tell ourselves about the meanings of the events in our lives.

In this module, you’ll learn:

• Life review is a foundational element in the work of conscious aging.
• How to fulfill your dreams for the future unencumbered by unhealed wounds, regrets, resentments and disempowering stories about the events
  in your life.
• Forgiveness as a process to free you of toxic attachments to your past.
• How to transform regrets and disempowering personal stories, and discover how the Hero’s Journey can be a powerful catalyst for gaining a transforming soul’s eye and deeper understanding of your life.
• Rituals to support you in letting go of beliefs, attitudes, habits and identifications that will not serve your moving forward.
• The Death Lodge practice, which weaves together several dynamics that can help you heal your past so you can move with clear energy into your future.

Module 4: Living in Between (April 13)

As we begin to sever from our identification as midlife adults, we enter the time between life stages called “liminal time” or “the neutral zone.” This time is characterized by confusion, a sense of being in a foreign land without roadmaps and loss of meaning with no clear vision of a meaningful future. It is also full of potential, as the seeds of new vision and purpose gestate in us. There are practices we can employ that can help us use this in-between time to gain the new vision and energy that await us in the elder chapters of our lives.

In this module, you’ll learn:

• How to navigate and understand the neutral zone — that critical time between who you have been and who you can become — so that you can use it as a springboard for a more vibrant future.
• Ways to access the full potential from this liminal time as the seeds of future vision germinate in you.
• Meaningful approaches for entering this time consciously to become aware of, and nurture, these seeds of vision.
• Solitude and silence are critical during this time.
• How time in the natural world helps you get in touch with the qualities, values and callings that are most authentic in you.
• How synchronicities and dreams can be courted and provide guidance for the path ahead.

Module 5: Creating the Legacy of Our
Elder Chapters (April 20)

This session’s major theme is that the creation of our legacy does not end with retirement. The legacy we create as elders can be one of continual growth and service to our world. We create this legacy by using the power of intention to set goals for our whole selves rather than just resort to the popular “bucket list.” The “Ten Intentions for Ten Years” practice can help us set such goals — and achieve them. It is important that we create lives as elders that reflect the right balance for us between serving and savoring, doing and being.

In this module, you’ll learn:

• Your elder chapters can be an important time for you to create a legacy beyond what you have created so far.
• The key principles of successful intentionality, which has great power and is necessary for you to reach the potential of your elder years. “Ten Intentions for Ten Years” as a powerful practice for helping you grow toward wholeness as you age.
• How writing a legacy letter and/or engaging in oral history work are valuable ways to get in touch with your legacy and to lay the groundwork for the legacy you have yet to create.
• How to find the balance between serving and savoring, doing and being, which can be difficult but crucial for conscious elders.

Module 6: Practices for Becoming & Staying Conscious (April 27)

The major theme of this session is “The Self That Wins Is the Self We Feed.” This session will focus on a variety of practices we can use to feed the self in us committed to aiming high as we age consciously. It’s equally important that we become conscious of ways of living that tend to numb our consciousness, feed our fears and sap our energy.

In this module, you’ll learn:

• Practices for aging consciously with commitment to thrive in a largely unconscious world.
• Ways to navigate unconscious sabotage and build a future that is based in clear visions and conscious intentions.
• Several practices to help you stay conscious as you feed your best self.
• Techniques for transforming habits and ways of living that numb your consciousness, feed your fears and sap your energy.

Module 7: Finding Support in Community (May 4)

This session will focus on the importance of finding the support of like-minded others if we are to successfully undertake the journey of conscious aging. We will explore the growing variety of organizations creating supportive communities for our elderhood, including Co-Housing, the “Village” model and others.

We’ll look at programs, such as Elder Wisdom Circle, the IONS Conscious Aging Program, Sage-ing International’s workshops and the Choosing Conscious Elderhood retreats, which enable people to have the support of community as they do their conscious aging work. And we will explore opportunities for conscious elders to engage in the community service and social action that are crucial in helping the world move successfully through the great shifts underway. This session will also address themes that come up throughout the course that call for further discussion, amplification or clarification.

In this module, you’ll learn:

• Conscious aging work requires community support to be sustained
  and successful.
• The growing number of models for enabling you to create and have supportive community as you age.
• Why there can be great value in finding support through Elder Wisdom Circles and conscious aging workshops and retreats.
• About opportunities for serving your community and the Earth as a part of your commitment to aging consciously.
• Why the “Great Turning” needs a culture of conscious elders in every nation, and why the creation of such a culture requires the building of community.

What Graduates of Aging with Passion and Purpose Are Saying…

The course had positive impact on me in guiding me and changing me to view my later years of life from hopelessness to hopefulness and from irrelevance to fulfillment. The course provided daily practice tools to achieve the goals. The course also strengthened my spiritual belief in relying on the guidance. To me, this course was very timely as I just retired 2 months back and considered it a spiritual inner call to attend. Thank you very much for providing me a major stepping stone in my life.
– Mani Subramanian, Houston, TX

The course provided me with deep insights into the elder years and helped me structure a way forward to an existing and meaningful elderhood. I now feel far more certain that my future can focus on those aspects of my life that will leave a meaningful legacy for family, friends and the society of which I am a part. A constructive, challenging experience full of deep insights.
– Graham, Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada (experienced the course in Maui, HI)

This course has helped me to not only accept that I am an Elder (having experienced a certain amount of denial over this fact at turning 65), I also have a greater degree of confidence in and celebration for the Wisdom I have accumulated over my lifetime so far. I actually feel excited now for the possibilities for the next phase of my journey!
– Diane Hockey, Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada

Frequently Asked Questions:

1. Innovative Business Model:
   • Embrace the reality of a genuine business! Our approach involves forming a group buy, where we collectively share the costs among members. Using these funds, we purchase sought-after courses from sale pages and make them accessible to individuals facing financial constraints. Despite potential reservations from the authors, our customers appreciate the affordability and accessibility we provide.
2. The Legal Landscape: Yes and No:
   • The legality of our operations falls into a gray area. While we lack explicit approval from the course authors for resale, there’s a technicality at play. When procuring the course, the author didn’t specify any restrictions on resale. This legal nuance presents both an opportunity for us and a boon for those seeking budget-friendly access.
3. Quality Assurance: Unveiling the Real Deal:
   • Delving into the heart of the matter – quality. Acquiring the course directly from the sale page ensures that all documents and materials are identical to those obtained through conventional means. However, our differentiator lies in going beyond personal study; we take an extra step by reselling. It’s important to note that we are not the official course providers, meaning certain premium services aren’t included in our package:
     • No coaching calls or scheduled sessions with the author.
     • No access to the author’s private Facebook group or web portal.
     • No entry to the author’s exclusive membership forum.
     • No direct email support from the author or their team.

   We operate independently, aiming to bridge the affordability gap without the additional services offered by official course channels. Your understanding of our unique approach is greatly appreciated.

• Firstly, item is not as explained
• Secondly, Item do not work the way it should.
