Abstract

Although many people are uncertain of what to expect of the aging experience, the ideology of conscious aging (consciousness expansion and personal growth) has merit. This article describes a workshop called The Women We Are Becoming: Re-creating Through Recreating in the Later Years that was designed to challenge established norms and narratives about aging by shifting the focus on aging from decline to development. Transformative learning as a philosophy and experiential learning as a method provided women participants with opportunities to become conscious of their own aging through object lessons presented in outdoor settings.
