For Connie, contemplative practices that "teach us beginner's mind...deepen into silence and then open up into pure awareness" (Zweig, 2022, p. 235) are clearly the gold standard. So many of our negative projections about age go into our shadow bags - an image Connie borrows from Robert Bly (Zweig, 2022, p. 42). [Extracted from the article]
