The Inner Work of Age: Shifting from Role to Soul by Connie Zweig

To guide people in becoming elders and fulfilling the promise of their lives, Connie Zweig focuses on specific practices. In addition to shadow work, central to her book is the practice of Life Review.

Life Review helps us explore both our lived life and unlived life. This clarifies and refines the deeper purpose for later life. Here, we see the full arc of a lifetime and understand how key moments are connected with our unique path.

Life Review can help:

• Recall people and events that shaped us
• Complete unfinished business
• Be accountable without blame
• Reclaim lost talents and aspirations
• Chart the path for your next phase

The life review raises questions:

• What is it, if I don’t live it out now, that I’ll regret?

• What is calling me now?

• Can I have gratitude for my life?
