Scott MacLeod's Anthropology of Information Technology & Counterculture: Nymphaea ampla (dotleaf waterlily or white lotus): Restorative Yoga class on Saturdays (and as we may live to 150 and well beyond:)?

Dear George (Church), Yogi Jarvis Chen (in the Harvard TH Chan school of Public Health), Alex (Plesa, Wyss Institute at Harvard), Peter (Norvig, Google AI), Sundar (Pichai),

...

Yoga friends & family in their 80s and 90s ~ Ma/Janie, and Alden (Briscoe - who went to Quaker George School in Philadelphia before Harvard college), & QuakerunitarianYogini & veterinarian & cousin Annie (Brown in NE Oregon) in her 60s, Dick (Robb MD, possibly posthumously, also an ophthalmology professor in Harvard Medical School), and Maitreyi (Mazumdar MD - a professor in Harvard Medical School too), Vivek (Buch MD, professor of surgery in the Stanford Medical School), MacLeod kin or family, Doortje (Van Kooten, and Angela, and your father Victor, and please forward), Valerie & Ed Smyth MDs, & Marlynn Wei MD JD (co-author of "The Harvard Medical School Guide to Yoga: 8 Weeks to Strength, Awareness, and Flexibility," 2017, Harvard Press), Pin/Sid Mazumdar, HHS, all,

Yoga greetings (as in 8 limbs of Yoga) from Skyline ridge in the SF East Bay, for these email restorative Yoga explorations' on Saturday October 24, 2026 (and as we may live to 150 and well beyond:) ... around 8 am Your Time ...

Am wondering how Yoga might help my mother Jane, who is 91, & cousins' Alden, and Annie, and all, and to live freely in a fit body mind until say 2050+, when 1st possible extreme genetics' therapies might emerge FDA approved, per I think George Church in a video interview I recall, but possibly as soon as an estimated 2036 per George's comment to me at Harvard ARDD 2026. In 2050, my mother would be around 115 years old, and while she is keeping very active with more than 2 miles per day of walking and with poles (for added movement), gene function declines as we age as George Church says here -

How soon could humans reverse the aging process with genetic engineering? (only ~ a minute long)

- and my mother notices this slowing down in her 98 year old good friend, who also lives in the same Presbyterian Continuing Care Senior Center on the eastern seaboard of the US.

Calorie restriction is one proven way to extend life in humans, I have read, and as much as 10-15% (with good nutrition), but not beyond the 122 years of age level (which Jeanne Calment lived to) I think. Besides walking and Yoga, George, others, how best for my mother to live until first genetic drug therapies for aging reversal are developed for longevity too, and are FDA approved?

Gentle Restorative Sequence

And regarding the Harvard Aging Research and Drug Development conference in Boston on 10/1-10/3/26, and on the digital side, and in that we may live to 150 years of age and well beyond :) ...

how could we create this realistic virtual earth for Yoga too, and even as a 'magic machine' beginning at the Harbin Hot Springs' gatehouse in Google street view with time slider ~ https://goo.gl/maps/7gSsSTweRCBo9gf87 ~ (https://twitter.com/HarbinBook ~ http://bit.ly/HarbinBook) - and with its 3 dates presently: 2007, 2012, and 2024, - and at the #GCellView level and #GmoleculeView levels, and with little #GPegman becoming our #AvatarAgentElectonicHeatlhRecords as #DigitalHealthTwins? IN these regards, how to #TimeSlideGenes & #TimeSlideCells, too, virtually in each of our #AvatarAgentEHR back to 2007, 2012, and 2024, and when we were 7, and 12, and 24 even, and possibly with #AlphFoldServer too, focusing on coding first your reply, George at Harvard ARDD, to Akram's 'magic machine' question - and potentially with you Jesse and Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School helping Altos Lab with your machine learning expertise Akram, and World University and School, building on MIT OCW in 7 languages, code little Pegman as our #AvatarAgentElectonicHeatlhRecords as #DigitalHealthTwins? And how further could we time-slide back, or forward, with OSK drug therapies, our avatar agent electronic medical records / digital health twins say 75%, 50%, 25% of our present age within a realistic virtual earth (and see the PPPPS) - and then upload this to our bodies via even a skin patch in a smart watch, or via a drug or pill, (or use a vaccine for this, for example)?

See more about this here -

https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2026/10/korean-white-forsythia-abeliophyllum.html - re WUaS too exploring collaboration with universities and companies in building out this realistic virtual earth for genetics, and a RVE fo Yoga too.

See, too -

"Could we suggest that we at Harvard ARDD have proven aging reversal with extreme longevity genetics if we can code the above re the Harbin Hot Springs' gate house in these dates, and others, interoperating this with our #AvatarAgentElectronicMedicalRecords emerging from GPegman ?"
