S-Day September 19
Over the past few months, I have struggled to focus on writing. After two trips to Europe in early summer, I finally wore out the remaining cartilage in my left knee. The meniscus had torn years earlier. The X-ray and MRI images showed that my ACL was destroyed. I had compensated by constantly tightening my thigh muscles, which added extra strain to the connecting ligaments. The left hip was replaced in 2016. That strain probably added to issues with the left knee.

Mindful Eating: Turning Meals into Meditative Practice
Eating has become something we do in passing, a necessity squeezed between tasks. But food is more than fuel; it’s a sensory experience, an invitation to connect with the present moment. Mindful eating transforms an ordinary meal into meditation, not by changing what you eat, but by shifting how you eat.

Eyes Closed, World Open: How Inner Vision Enhances Awareness
Our eyes are constantly open, scanning, processing, and filtering streams of information. Yet there is another form of awareness—quieter, subtler, but just as profound—that begins the moment we close our eyes. This shift from outer vision to inner vision does not shrink our world; it expands it. When the visual field goes dark, other senses awaken, and the mind finds new space to notice what was always present but often overlooked.

Body Scan for Emotional Clarity: Mapping Tension and Release
Deadlines, decisions, and endless streams of thought dominate our daily lives, while the body quietly bears the weight of emotions left unacknowledged.

Learning to listen to them can open a pathway to greater emotional clarity. One of the most effective ways to do this is through a body scan.

But what if your commute wasn’t wasted time? What if those minutes—or even hours—could become a daily practice of mindfulness?

From Restlessness to Calm: Using Subtle Movements to Ground Yourself
Restlessness often feels like the enemy of meditation. You sit down, hoping for calm, and instead find your body twitching, your foot tapping, or your fingers itching to do something—anything—other than be still. For many, this agitation leads to frustration and the belief that they’re “bad at meditating.” But what if restlessness isn’t something to fight? What if, instead, it’s an invitation to move—gently, subtly, and with awareness?

M Mehran In the quiet hills of Ikaria, Greece, mornings begin slowly. Smoke curls from chimneys, neighbors greet each other with laughter, and the scent of herbs drifts from small gardens. But the remarkable thing about Ikaria isn’t its scenery—it’s its people. Here, living past 90 isn’t rare; it’s ordinary.

Living Beyond the Clock: How Some People Make Longevity Look Effortless
M Mehran We all know someone who seems to defy age—a neighbor who still gardens at 90, a grandparent who dances at family gatherings, or a friend whose energy makes you question the calendar. Longevity isn’t just about the number of years we live; it’s about how fully we experience each one. And the secret, it turns out, isn’t hidden in some exotic formula—it’s woven into daily life.
