Salon Conversation (Virtual): Longevity

Are you interested in participating in thought-provoking, interactive conversations all while making new friends and building our community? If so, Mindful Modern Living invites you to join Thursday Night Salon Conversations where we’ll have insightful and intriguing conversations and the occasional debate.

The first salons can be traced to the early 17th century, when Parisian women gathered to discuss social, political, artistic, and literary topics. Salon gatherings offer space for genuine exploration, the co-mingling of ideas, and the development of new thinking.

Salons foster an environment where critical thinking, reflection, and participation come alive.

Longevity. “Long existence or service.” Lifestyle choices play a major role in longevity, as does being in a community with others. As we age, being apart of community especially helps protect us from feelings of loneliness, depression, and hopelessness. When we come together to help serve one another, we enrich not only our own lives but those around us.

Is community the secret to longevity? How do you intend to use your strengths, experiences, and knowledge to be of greater service to your community?

Inspired by Jane Thielmeyer’s 100th [living] birthday, this week’s Thursday Night Salon Conversation will explore the theme of longevity.

Mindful Modern Living is a community of unique voices and strives to remain inclusive, inviting, and safe for those who wish to discuss and/or debate topics. No matter what, our discourse will always remain respectful. Regardless of point of view, mean-spirited agitation or intentionally hurtful responses are a quick way to end further discussion and you’ll be asked to leave.
