When Your Body Slows Down, Your Soul Finally Speaks


April 14, 2025
.

Thanks to MEA alum Anne Auburn shared this wise 22-minute video about the whispering soul. This Buddhist insight about how life can be lived after 60. It’s quite beautiful and can be summarized in the following paragraph:

When the body begins to slow down, something unexpected happens — the soul speaks louder. Rather than fearing physical decline, what if we saw it as an invitation to go inward — to rediscover presence, to reconnect with what truly matters, and to listen to the quiet voice within that’s often drowned out by the noise of youth and productivity? Through heartfelt stories, practical reflections, and timeless Buddhist teachings, this video reveals how aging is not a loss — but a sacred transition. One where grief becomes depth, silence becomes peace, and the slowing down of the body becomes the awakening of the soul. If you’re over 60 — or simply feeling the pull to live with more meaning — this message is for you. It’s a gentle reminder that you’re not fading… you’re ripening.
