Blue Zones Project Scottsdale is hosting a free Purpose Workshop on July 16 at Evara Living, 9449 N. 90th St., Scottsdale 85258, giving residents a structured session to examine personal purpose through guided discussion and presentation.
The workshop falls under the organization's "Right Outlook" category, one of the well-being focus areas it runs across the city. Blue Zones Project Scottsdale describes its Purpose Workshops as interactive sessions where participants are guided to reflect on and discover their personal purpose.
The organization's programming traces to research that Blue Zones founder Dan Buettner conducted with National Geographic and the National Institute on Aging beginning in 2004 to identify global longevity hotspots. The original five blue zones identified were Sardinia, Italy; Ikaria, Greece; the Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica; the Seventh-Day Adventist community in Loma Linda, California; and Okinawa, Japan. People in those regions reach age 100 at rates 10 times greater than in the United States, according to the project.
The Scottsdale chapter implements well-being improvement strategies across 13 pillar areas focused on people, places, and policy. Beyond workshops, its event calendar includes Walking Moais, Cooking Moais, Pickleball Moais, and volunteer shifts at food packing sites including Vista Del Camino and Desert Mission Food Bank.
This is not the organization's first Purpose Workshop in Scottsdale. A prior session ran in January 2025 at Sozo Lifestyle Medicine, also listed through Eventbrite.
Registration for the July 16 event is free; the Eventbrite listing carries full details on timing and check-in.
