The Great Unflattening?
Join New Story Pod arrow_btn_white.png
Dear Friends,

In Flatland, a 19th-century novel, a humble square lives in a two-dimensional world. One day, it meets a mysterious visitor—a sphere. But the square, limited by its flat perception, sees only a circle growing and shrinking, unable to grasp the fuller dimension right before its eyes. So too, we humans are shaped by the limits of our senses and systems. Bees see ultraviolet. Platypuses sense electric fields. And here we are—scrolling through endless rectangles of distraction—risking a great forgetting. Forgetting that we are not pixels or profiles, but pulsing, multidimensional beings.

In a world seduced by speed, shaped by transactions, and flattened by algorithmic certainty, what happens to wonder? To grace? To the quiet symphony of nuance and mystery that once guided our becoming?

What Your Unique Breath-Print Says About You
“When you consciously decide to breathe more slowly and deeply, you alert your body to the fact that you want it to behave differently.”

What Your Unique Breath-Print Says About You

Similar to fingerprints, researchers suspect “that your patterns of breathing through your nose are so distinctive that it may be possible to identify you by breath alone, suggesting we have ‘breath prints.’” Since breathing is tied to many bodily functions, the study may lead to “understanding what’s behind the idiosyncratic breathing patterns.” Breathing exercises are traditionally recommended for anxiety and for relaxation. While it is still speculative, researchers will study “exactly what a healthier pattern of breath looks like, both as a way to identify illness and to explore whether people can be taught ways of breathing that might change their biology.”
