Pathways for Life Review: Exploring Personal Narratives for Healing & Growth

$50

with Tom Meuser, Windham/Raymond Adult Education

Calendar Jan 27, 2025 at 5:30 pm, runs for 5 weeks

Are you in the “latter” stages of life? Reflecting on your past and reviewing your life experiences? Formal life reviews are increasingly integrated into hospice care, bereavement support, and other contexts where we face significant life changes, challenges and losses. Join this comprehensive overview of the evidence supporting life review, best practices for self-exploration – with group work, as well as practical experiences. Discover the developmental benefits of life review while exploring your own narratives and (optionally) sharing them with others. Course materials will be accessible via Google Classroom. Class will be held at WRAE in person, unless weather conditions necessitate a switch to Zoom.
