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

#enjoythejourney Driven by a 46kw battery pack that provides up to 400 volts of power to the groundbreaking RAD40 electric drive, the Pulse 63 electric RIB zips around at speeds of up to 23 knots. Plus, with excellent stability, the ride is super smooth, and the unique hull form creates an air cushion effect making the cockpit much drier in rough seas.
