Hagitude: Reimagining the Second Half of Life

‘There can be a perverse pleasure, as well as a sense of rightness and beauty, in insisting on flowering just when the world expects you to become quiet and diminish.’ Sharon Blackie What is Hagitude ? It means being at ease with the unique power women embody in the second half of their life. It means having a strong sense of who we are and what we have to offer the world. And a firm belief in our place in the ever-shifting web of life. For the woman who wishes to flourish without chasing eternal youth comes Hagitude . Interweaving myth, psychology, landscape and ecofeminism, acclaimed author Sharon Blackie reclaims the mid years as an alchemical moment – from which to shift into your chosen, authentic and fulfilling future – and the elder years as a path to dynamic influence. ‘A fascinating book … well researched, packed with stories and bursting with lovely descriptions of the natural world. There’s plenty in it to inspire women of every age.’ Christina Patterson, Sunday Times – ASIN: 1914613317 | ISBN13: 9781914613319 | ISBN-13: 978-1914613319
