Autumn Years : Taking the Contemplative Path Paperback / softback
by Robert H. King, Elizabeth M. King
Paperback / softback
Description
This is a beginner's guide to contemplation for anyone in the second half of life and also a love story.
Autumn Years describes the practice of contemplation as part of a strategy of successful aging.
Recognizing that there is no single contemplative path, it includes: sitting meditation, centering prayer, walking meditation, and loving-kindness meditation.
It also looks at other practices as well: yoga, lectio divina, koan study, music meditation, dream work, and even travel as pilgrimage. 'Shows that marriage is as much a spiritual journey as monasticism...youth only the beginning of the human exploration of wonder, divine passion, and holiness.' Laurence Freeman, O.S.B., director of the World Community of Christian Meditation
