This group is for women who will be turning 60 by December 31, 2012, and older. It's been my dream to have a group of women where we support one another through this very important transition as we move into and beyond the sixth decade of our lives.

Success is a personal definition, and it will change over time as we transition through the different seas …

These will include dances, parties, movies, dining, wine tasting events, entertainment of all kinds, happy hours, seminars, karaoke, outings, retre …

To be human is to experience suffering.  To be in recovery, is to be aware of suffering and willing to let go of that which causes suffering.  Each of us has our own life experiences which have brought us to this point, and each of us must walk a distinct path.  Buddhism offers a framework to become more aware of the nature of suffering, and how to end suffering.  I hope you'll accept my invitation to try these tools yourself, and find ease in your own life.
