The Radical Act of Savoring Pleasant Moments

The Radical Act of Savoring Pleasant Moments

In this talk, writer, activist and artist Ari Honarvar introduces the mindful practice of savoring joy. Describing her childhood in wartime Iran, Honorvar says, "We were attacked from the outside and from within. There was an actual war, with daily funerals, random bombings, and missile attacks… And then there was a war on Joy that hurt in a different way… When there is a war on Joy there is also a war on people’s coping mechanisms." When faced with hardship, experiencing joy is a superpower of resilience. Through her background in providing workshops for refugees, she explains how to incorporate savoring pleasant moments in order to improve our well-being, even in the toughest environments.

Wildness is the preservation of the World.

– Henry David Thoreau –

The Unlikely Success of Wingspan

“We begin by angling a lamp toward the wall, allowing just the perfect amount of warm light to fall on the table. Windows are flung open, inviting the night air inside. Then, the careful act of removing each bag, box, and card. We fill clear, shallow bowls with small pastel eggseasily mistaken for Cadburys at first glance. Other bowls brim with cardboard tokens. And as I neatly unfold each players board, the kitchen table fills with forests, fields, and streams. The night dissolves into swirls of pastel feathers spread across the tabletop as we deal the first round of cards. After more than a year of playing Wingspan, this bird-themed board game is still as enchanting as ever. The objective is for players to create their own wildlife preserves…” { read more }
