At 93 years old, Sushumna is showing the world that living a long and healthy life can be simple and joyful. Her daily routine focuses on movement, self-sufficiency, and staying active, rather than chasing anti-ageing trends. Sushumna, a Bay Area resident, now divides her time between California and a spiritual community in Tamil Nadu, India, where she spends a significant amount of time each year. She retired from a successful career as a sales manager for a large company after joining the community in 2001.
Kamel Jaber, who recently shared her story, explained that she has no serious health issues other than arthritis. He said Sushumna is always positive, deeply religious, and happy, and is one of his favourite people.
