Shoheijuku Newsletter October 2026

With the arrival of October, we are finally beginning to feel a coolness in the mornings and evenings. How have you been faring amidst the intense heat?

Someone who called me just recently mentioned that, although he remained conscious, he was unable to move his body freely and ended up lying down for as long as six hours. I am relieved to hear that his older sister came to check on him out of concern, took him to an emergency hospital, and that his life was ultimately saved.

It looks like the heat will continue for a while longer. Please do not let your guard down and take good care of your health.
