STAYING PRESENT. Military Road has topped a recent poll of Sydney’s most mindful locations, beating out established meditation retreats, coastal walking tracks, and the entire Blue Mountains to claim the title of the harbour city’s premier destination for presence, stillness, and conscious breathing.
The road, which connects Mosman to Neutral Bay and features approximately one set of traffic lights per resident, was praised by respondents for its “unparalleled ability to bring you into the moment” and its “meditative quality that no amount of exposure to nature has been able to replicate.”
“I got on at Spit Junction at 8.15am,” said one local, “and by the time I reached Neutral Bay I had completely let go of any attachment to friends, family or work. I’m thinking about buying some land in the country and starting a farm.”
