Life Lectures: Middle Age Rebellion
Make the most of the second half of life by turning the turbulence of a middle-age crisis into a wealth of resources for life.
Teenage rebellion can be bold and self-assured.
But middle age rebellion may only lurk in the conflicts and introspection of the heart, and if the body suffers, does the mind suffer, too?
Entering middle age, we may encounter more demands that compromise our bodily and mental energy, bear more pressure from our family, workplace, and social expectations, and face ever-growing issues about life and death. Our Lecturer, Yang Pei, who specializes in psychology and Chan Buddhist practice, will lead attendees of the Middle Age Rebellion lecture series to explore topics such as: how to review and integrate our path and experiences from the first half of life, to understand ourselves and the world, clarify our survival strategy, and thereby create our life value.
