New Sage-ing International sponsored series based on David Chernikoff's new book Life, Part Tw


 Seven Keys to Conscious Living,

An Online 7-Part Monthly Webinar Series

7 Wednesdays for 7 Keys

What does it mean to live fully and to love well? That’s the question we’ll explore together in this engaging webinar. Drawing on material from his recently released book, Life, Part Two: Seven Keys to Awakening with Purpose and Joy as You Age, David will share teachings on conscious aging designed to provide a foundation for this new monthly webinar series.
Choosing a vision is one of the central tasks in a consciously lived life. Why? Because our vision of who we are and why we’re here on earth acts like a North Star that gives direction to everything we say, think, and do. In this life-affirming webinar, we’ll explore, identify, and articulate the underlying vision that can energize our days and bring peace to our nights. 

Intuition is essentially a way of knowing ourselves, each other, and our world. In this webinar, we will look deeply at how to cultivate this way of knowing that becomes a creative way of being over time and helps each of us "take our seat" as a wise elder who celebrates long life experience.

  • September 14th - Committing to Inner Work - more to come

In one of his essays, the writer and activist Wendell Berry described what he called “our real work.” Conscious living requires us to look within ourselves to identity our true nature and any limiting beliefs, emotional patterns, or behavioral habits that obstruct its expression in a world that desperately needs wisdom and compassion. This webinar will be a deep inquiry into our real work, which has both a unique dimension and a universal dimension. 

  • October 12th - Suffering Effectively - more to come
Like some of you who are reading these words, I felt put off by the phrase “suffering effectively” when I first came across it. Later I realized that the phrase referred to a key understanding that, as one respected teacher put it, “There are two kinds of suffering: the suffering that leads to more suffering and the suffering that leads to the end of suffering." In this webinar, we’ll learn how to distinguish the two kinds of suffering and how our difficulties can become fruitful stepping stones on the path of spiritual maturity.
  • November 9th - Serving from the Heart  - more to come
The path of service plays a central role in many of the great wisdom traditions. When we quiet our minds and open our hearts, we recognize the interdependent web that connects all living beings to one another and to the cosmos. This realization inspires us to become what the Dalai Lama calls “a force for good.” By attuning to inner guidance, we sense the unique ways in which life calls each of us to contribute to the well-being of the whole. In this webinar, we will explore the particular kind of joy that suffuses our lives when we serve from the heart and are of benefit to others. 
  • December 14th - Celebrating the Journey - more to come

Many of us who aspire to age consciously see our lives as a spiritual journey and ourselves as spiritual seekers. If not understood wisely, these concepts create an experience in which fulfillment is an ever-receding horizon that we never actually reach. What would it be like to become a spiritual finder? In this webinar, we will look deeply at the role of paradox in the process of awakening to our deepest nature. We will learn to celebrate "the power of now” as we also continue to enjoy the value and meaning of goal-oriented activities.
