David Harry Stewart Headshot with text "I come to Canyon Ranch for Longevity"

David Harry Stewart

⁠I’ve spent years thinking about what it really means to age well, so when I arrived at Canyon Ranch Tucson, I was ready to put those ideas into practice through the LONGEVITY8™ experience. My days were a balance of movement, recovery, and time outdoors — challenging my body with expert guidance, slowing down when it mattered, and creating space to reset physically and mentally. From desert adventures to deeply nourishing meals, it became clear: Longevity isn’t about doing less — it’s about doing what matters, better. Explore my perfect day, then discover inspiration for your own longevity journey.
