| Senex and Senexa: The Creative Explosion in Later Life

Speaker: Tobi Zausner, PhD, LCSW

Senex is Carl Jung’s term for a wise old man and senexa is a wise old woman. One of Jung’s pioneering realizations is that our brain evolves as we age, bringing further wisdom and accomplishments. This illustrated presentation highlights the creativity of very old individuals from diverse backgrounds, who excel in the arts, entertainment, science, medicine, wellness, and sports. These people practice their professions into their 70s, 80’s, 90’s and 100’s, and our current respect for aging has now brought us the older woman as the newest symbol of beauty. |
