The Minneapolis/St. Paul Chapter supports women as they make the most out of their "50 years and forward" transition journey. We learn from and support each other as we experience the changes that occur at this stage of life.

We welcome any woman interested in joining our vibrant chapter. The membership experience may involve participation in Special Interest Groups (SIGs), Transition Peer Groups (TPGs), the Caring Collaborative, learning opportunities, and social gatherings. Membership is as rich and deep as each member chooses to make it.

Awakening the Sage Within Workshop

Four consecutive Wednesdays

January 10th, 17th, 24th, and 31st

1:30 pm – 4:00 pm

For the first time through an agreement with Sage-ing International, the TTN MSP Chapter is offering TTN members from all chapters the opportunity to participate in the four session: Awakening the Sage Within Workshop. Sage-ing International, a 501c3 organization, is about aging consciously through life’s transitions and challenges in community with like-minded older adults. The Sage-ing view is one of aging as a spiritual practice that can elicit joy and contentment, positively benefiting our families and the communities and cultures we serve. From deeper knowing, we gain a confidence and a humility that sees everyday service (wisdom in action) as the natural result of continued growth.

The Program:

Sage-ing is a model for engaging more deliberately, more joyfully, and more compassionately as we grow older.

Together we will create a warm and safe space to share experiences and thoughts. It is based on the ground-breaking book: From Age-ing to Sage-ing: A Profound New Vision of Growing Older by Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi.
