Critics Review
“Kamla Kapur reaches out to us as an elder and shares her wisdom on how to deal with the effects of aging on minds, bodies, and souls—and how to turn the tribulations of aging into triumphs. Her memoir is transparent, honest, vulnerable, and filled with gratitude and acceptance for life’s journey.” * Stephanie S. Covington Ph.D., LCSW, author of A Woman’s Way through the Twelve Steps *“The aging of Baby Boomers worldwide is a hard trend. Fun fact: we will not get chronologically younger! The Privilege of Aging provides a powerful guide for embracing our mortality and living a happier and fulfilling life as we age.” * Daniel Burrus, New York Times bestselling author of Flash Foresight *“What do you get when you cross an old soul with a life review? Pure alchemy. Kamla Kapur’s brave memoir about aging immerses us in the land of old souls—a generation of seekers living beyond aging as denigration, denial, or romance but rather as a privilege to be embraced. A great addition to the growing conscious aging library.” * Carol Orsborn, author of The Spirituality of Age and Spiritual Aging *“A wise and wonderful roadmap for awakening to and harvesting the divine gifts of this life as we ripen.” * Ken Druck, Ph.D., author of How We Go On and Courageous Aging *
