Making Sense of Growing Older
Ageing is not a problem to solve but rather an experience to be met head on, an opportunity to evolve with grace, embracing both the memories that shaped you and the possibilities that still await.
Making Sense of Growing Older invites you to honor the wisdom and beauty of the ageing process, and to examine the things that get in the way of your full engagement in this uncharted part of life. Cultivating awareness, acceptance, self-compassion, and a mindful presence are all key to the unfolding story of your life.

Book Review
The author, Rick Lelchuk, offers truly practical, evidence-based, and positive insights into the mental, social, and physical dimensions of aging.
I participated in the training Rick offered, which then became a stepping stone for this book. As in the training, the material in this book is well organized and offers reliable techniques for navigating the wisdom of aging and successfully dealing with age-related changes. Rick actually "walks his talk" as a community leader in the country's largest active retirement residential development.
I highly recommend this book as a wise, practical, and positive guide to understanding and navigating the aging process.

About Author Rick Lelchuk
In 2020, with a degree in psychology and 70 years of life experience, Rick wrote and presented a seminar series entitled Authentic Ageing – Suddenly a Senior. The seminar was designed to shift seniors points of view about ageing. Seniors who attended embraced new ways of thinking about their life and growing older, and seminar attendance was on an upswing. That was just before the pandemic.
For the next 5 years the seminar morphed into an unsuccessful online video course and then ultimately into book form you are now viewing.
It is Rick’s desire that you too are inspired with a positive and transformed point of view about the latter part of your life.
A Note from Rick: Why use the word “ageing” spelled like that? Both aging and ageing are proper use according to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary. I’ve chosen to use the “ageing” spelling because it has the full word “age” in it. And, that's what we're talking about.
