Phoenix, AZ -- (SBWire) -- 02/17/2016 --Bette Davis famously said: "Old age is not for sissies." My own mother said it so often that I thought it originated with her! Humor, of course, is one of the best tools for not only aging wisely but for living wisely regardless of your age. And that's the key to the wisdom about aging. It is really universal. I used to study my parents for clues on what to do and what not to do in order to avoid the same pitfalls. As I learned, however, awareness, determination and intention are necessary but not sufficient to change patterns that have been imprinted since birth or programmed into your DNA. Psychology is not sufficient either. When it is combined with spiritual wisdom and practice and community, you have the possibility of truly changing your life. And that's what aging wisely is about. You have the time to look at your life and let go of the painful thoughts, emotions and memories that hurt you. Please join us Thursday to learn how to grow in strength, resilience, and joy as you age.

Rabbi Rachel Cowan, formerly the Executive Director of the Institute for Jewish Spirituality is a consultant to the Institute's Wise Aging program. She speaks and writes widely on the topic of aging. She was named by Newsweek Magazine in 2007 and in 2010 as one of the 50 leading rabbis in the United States and by the Forward in 2010 as one of the 50 leading women rabbis. She was featured in the PBS series The Jewish Americans and from 1990-2003 was Program Director for Jewish Life and Values at the Nathan Cummings Foundation. Her work has been included in Moment and Sh'ma as well as in anthologies, including Illness and Health in the Jewish Tradition: Writings from the Bible to Today, and The Torah: A Women's Commentary. She is the author, with her late husband Paul Cowan, of Mixed Blessings: Untangling the Knots in an Interfaith Marriage.
