Welcome to the website for Sage-ing in Polk County

Thanks for visiting Sage-ing. Here you'll learn what Sage-ing is and all about the programs we offer. We would welcome you to join us.

Welcome To Sage-ing

A sage is a wise person. Therefore Sage-ing is a journey into wisdom. We don't become wiser just because we grow older, but rather we must do inner work to grow in wisdom. The Sage-ing Program helps us do this inner work through deep discussions and studying the thoughts of men and women who have a deep spiritual understanding.

Our classes also help us to develop a greater understanding of ourselves and others through writing about the lives we have led, learning to meditate and working towards understanding our dreams.

Stopping the Abuse of Women and Girls

        Our Sage-ing group has taken on a new project. This year, for the second year, the One Billion Rising organization had people in over 203 countries and many cities in the United States participate in celebrations to encourage everyone to stand up, to rise up, to stop  abusive practices towards women and girls. 

        Since Winter Haven did not take part, we are making an effort to change that. We have a number of ideas in mind and have started putting them in motion. 

        As the events take shape, we will post them on our new website for this cause: www.winterhavenrising.blogspot.com. If you live in the Winter Haven, Florida area, please join us. If not, make sure your area takes part in this movement. Check it out at: www.onebillionrising.org.
