Over the past two years traveling through Japan’s longevity hotspots, I kept noticing something unexpected: Many older people practice haiku. This week in Tokyo, during the Humanities and Arts conference organized by IAFOR, I spent time with distinguished haiku poets Emiko Miyashita and Kyoko Uchimura. What I came to realize is that haiku may be far more than a literary pastime. It may help explain something deeper about attention, seasonality, connection, and how people age in Japan. This Short accompanies a longer Field Note exploring haiku, aging, and the Japanese idea that we remain connected to the rhythms of life as we grow older. https://www.nevertoolateacademy.com/post/haiku-aging-and-the-aha-moment About me: I’m Lowell Sheppard, 71, sailor, author, and Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society. I’m the Founder of the Never Too Late Academy and Special Advisor to IAFOR. Through Japan Solo Field Notes, I explore aging, place, and community across Japan. #Japan #Haiku #Longevity #HealthyAging #JapanSolo #JapaneseCulture #Mindfulness #Aging #LifeLessons #IAFOR

Este pijama para embarcación neumática evita que el material de nuestra zodiac, Narwhal, Honwave, Avon, etc esté a la intemperie sufriendo los efectos dañinos del sol, la humedad y la salitre. Otra vez más, nuestros amigos de velas y toldos Orka, https://www.orkavelas.com/ 986376543 han hecho una obra de arte.
