About this series

This compact volume--a true Soul*Spark--is an ideal gift for elders, as well as for all who are aging.

Throughout history most successful and long-lived civilizations have held a place of respect for elders, and have benefited from their life wisdom. Sages are elders who have gracefully accepted the passage of time, integrated their life experience with understanding, and made the fruit of their long experience available to others.

But how does one do this? How does one grow wiser as one grows older?

By drawing from the wisdom of the ages, Keys for Adept Aging opens up a range of thoughtful pathways for cultivating soul maturity. Readers will be enriched.

"As tens of thousands of baby boomers enter their 60's each day, this little gem is a timely addition to books on aging...it makes a great gift for the elders in your life. Highly recommended." - Amazon reader

"This book is a real soul-searching piece of writing...this would make a fantastic gift to any older family members."  - Lesley Jones for Readers' Favorite

This book was originally published under the title "Teach Us to Number Our Days," That title suggested a specific religious orientation. As readers shall discover, in this small treasure the keys for adept aging are drawn from many of the world's wisdom traditions. This little book—a Soul*Spark—strives to faithfully acknowledge and embrace that reality.

    Tales of the Whirling Rainbow: Soul*Sparks

    Tales of the Whirling Rainbow is a journalist's account of some of the key myths and mysteries of the Americas, and an electrifying exploration of how those myths are resounding in real time. Veteran journalist Steven McFadden weaves the living myths together seamlessly in a tightly written book that is eye-opening, and soul resonant. Drawn from sources both ancient and modern, Tales of the Whirling Rainbow conveys adroit insights into key facets of North America's unfolding saga. Learning to respect these knowings is fundamental to our spiritual growth and progress on the land going forward in time. McFadden tells the tales in plain, precise language, creating a quick but absorbing investigation into a deeply rooted mythos that offers keys to healing.   As the Sun awakens and earth changes intensify, our human lives attain high velocity. At this time and in this manner, elders across Turtle Island (North America) told the author, the human beings who are the different colors and faiths of the world will be moved. This will create opportunities to heal their web of relationships.

In our transitional era of the 21st Century pilgrimage is also an essential spiritual deed. In a right and respectful manner, pilgrimage can help maintain the balance of our planet, our lands, our waters, our lives. A Primer for Pilgrims is a benevolent guide to personal spiritual growth, as well as to earth healing. It's also a collection of true stories about critical geospiritual actions in places near and far. A Primer for Pilgrims offers insight, excitement, adventure, inspiration, and further...
