Spiritual Aging: Weekly Reflections for Embracing Life
by Carol Osborn, PhD
Award-Winning Title Ignites a New Era for Midlife and Elder Seekers.
For those who once saw aging only as decline, acclaimed author and conscious aging thought leader Dr. Carol Orsborn invites readers to embrace aging as a period of culmination and spiritual fulfillment. Her groundbreaking book, Spiritual Aging: Weekly Reflections for Embracing Life, honored as the 2025 Nautilus Book Awards Gold Winner in the Daily Wisdom category, has launched a fresh two-year cycle of weekly guidance.
Spiritual Aging delivers 120 weekly entries that address a full spectrum of moods, challenges, and transformations — from loneliness to solace, loss of identity to newfound freedom, anger to self-protection, envy to unconditional love, and beyond. This collection meets readers wherever they are, providing authentic reflection and gradual spiritual growth throughout the aging journey. Thousands have joined the Spiritual Aging Study and Support Group, a global online forum where Dr. Orsborn personally leads weekly study sessions at SpiritualAging.Substack.com. The book has garnered praise from James Hollis, author of Finding Meaning in the Second Half of Life, who says: “Once again, Carol Orsborn stirs the reader to reflect upon aging as an opportunity for depth and expansion, and week by week to experience that which abides.”
