In the structuring of human life, it is common to privilege efforts to prepare for working activities than to experience free time living, so that retirement presents itself as a significant change that requires the re-signification of the socio-affective and occupational bonds developed throughout the life cycle. This study is a theoretical essay that aims to reflect on retirement and leisure experience from the possible contributions of the Gestalt approach, based on the concepts of person, awareness and here-and-now, as well as elements of Gestalt therapy group work, which can contribute in a relevant way to the process of preparation for retirement, enabling the subjects the most effective and responsible contact with their choices and ways of being in the world.

Keywords : job; retirement; leisure; Gestalt therapy.
