12 Steps to Mindful Aging is a marvelous resource and guide for walking the path of an Elder – with grace, humor, wisdom and joy! As a rabbi and chaplain specializing in engagement with elders – and as an elder myself – I delight in the bounty of learning on each page of this little, accessible, powerful book.
