Connie Zweig, PhD, is a retired psychotherapist. She is coeditor of the anthology, Meeting the Shadow: The Hidden Power of the Dark Side of Human Nature. She is coauthor of Romancing the Shadow: A Guide to Soul Work for a Vital, Authentic Life. Her newest book is The Inner Work of Age: Shifting from Role to Soul.
Here she describes the many challenges we face as we enter into the autumn and winter of our lives. Among the most serious of these is ageism, a form of social discrimination that remains largely unchallenged. Other issues include increased helplessness, pain, disease, and infirmity. Fear of death also looms large. These factors all become “grist for the mill” and can lead to spiritual openings.
New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in “parapsychology” ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980).
