She started posting about Dispenza a few months ago, claiming his meditations had completely restored her gut health. I found Dispenza through a fitness influencer I follow-ostensibly for her workouts but, if we’re being honest, mainly for her abs. Or it could be something much more troubling: the fact that he markets his meditations as cures for deadly diseases. It could be his paternal countenance it could be his professed scientific credentials. But something about him has a chokehold on the kind of young, millennial influencer class that craves spiritual guidance and Insta-ready mantras. Joe,” as he calls himself, preaches a fairly standard combination of mindfulness mixed with manifestation mixed with something he claims is quantum physics but definitely is not. His book, You Are the Placebo, is a New York Times bestseller. His meditations have been translated into eight languages, his $2,299 retreats sell out in days. The 61-year-old New Jersey-born chiropractor with a striking resemblance to Wallace Shawn and a voice like your Italian uncle after inhaling helium has in recent months become the dominant spiritual leader of impressionable young women everywhere. In a world in which “self-care” is sacrosanct, in which coffee shops sell crystals and tech bros microdose mushrooms and self-help-author-slash-spiritual-leader Marianne Williamson ran for president, it can be hard for a single New-Age guru to rise above the rest.

Like a troop of boys the fliers came walking across the field. “Yes, this is war,” was all that Rosa said, as one by one the fighting planes taxied across the field into position. That’s the way they’ll look when we watch them beyond the seas.” This is how they will come sweeping in after escorting a bomber squadron in Africa, or China, or who knows where. “See how they circle!” Norma herself was entranced. As if in a hypnotic trance, she stood with eyes glued on the flight of planes. There was no need to say “Look” to the little Italian WAC. “Aren’t they wonderful! Like a flock of beautiful white pigeons!” “All the same,” Norma said, “we’ll take along our identification cards, just in case-”Īirplanes, especially those flown by the Army Air Forces, had always interested Norma, so she was more than delighted when shortly after their arrival at the field, a flight of small, sleek fighter planes came winging in out of the blue.

With Bemelmans’s “Madeline” and Sendak’s “Where the Wild Things Are,” the Babar books have become part of the common language of childhood, the library of the early mind. Once seen, Babar the Frenchified elephant is not forgotten. A Haussmann-style city rises in the middle of the barbarian jungle. An elephant, lost in the city, does not trumpet with rage but rides a department-store elevator up and down, until gently discouraged by the elevator boy. The Babar books are among those half-dozen picture books that seem to fix not just a character but a whole way of being, even a civilization. So begins one of the stories that most please the imagination of the modern child and his distant relation the modern adult-Jean de Brunhoff’s “The Story of Babar,” published in 1931. A chain of elephants, trunks and tails linked, wanders, with a mixture of upbeat energy and complacent pride, along the endpapers of a children’s book.
