For fear of the ageing process, perpetual pursuit of youth, a belief that age brings redundancy, that youth has more value, a failure to recognise mature beauty. This essence allows the transition to occur gracefully, brings an awareness of the importance and value of experience and maturity, of the rightful role of senior members of a community providing wisdom and balance, with dignity. It enables individuals to move into their full power - the "wise woman" or "wise man" role. It is also beneficial for those going through menopause.
