Description

We are all born with a great dream for our lives, explains cultural anthropologist Angeles Arrien, a dream which may have been derailed along the way by family and career responsibilities, or submerged by our own choices. In the second half of life, after your roots have gone deeply into the world, it is time to resurrect this dream.

On The Second Half of Life, Dr. Arrien introduces you to the Eight Gates of Initiation. Through images, poetry, and timeless metaphors from diverse world cultures, you will learn to understand their lessons and gifts, harvest the meaning and purpose of your life, and come into spiritual maturity.

Follow this gifted storyteller as she takes you step-by-step through each gate to deepen your most valuable relationships, reclaim your untended creative talents, and shift your focus from ambition to meaning to grow into the magnificent elder you were meant to become.

Note: Excerpted from the full-length audio courseThe Second Half of Life.

Ive never listened to anything more boring. I cant even describe what she was talking about too much as I couldnt even follow her. She just rambled about how one culture has this type of initiation, another has that. I expected to at least hear something interesting about the history of how different cultures and times viewed middle age but this was a chop suey of poetry pieces and God knows what. I dare any reader or listener to explain how we can use anything she said to benefit our life. Seems like 85% of what she said was just quoting other even more boring people!

This was my introduction to Angeles Arien and with that angelic name I wasn't disappointed. The CD is wonderfully insightful, lots of teaching stories and food for contemplation. I rate it 5 stars and recommend it highly. Thanks Sounds True for the beautiful packaging also, the cover photo is lovely and the music that plays before all of the sessions is contemplative and pulls you inside.

It's kind of interesting, but it's very repetative in parts, especially the last CD. Her voice is kind of sing-song, which I found a bit irritating.
