The Art and Science of Embodied Presence is an experience designed for connection with intention, meaning, reverence, vulnerability, and care. By engaging in neuroscientific and somatic approaches to the mind and body, and by practicing creative and contemplative mindfulness, together we will embark on an embodied journey towards healing through meeting the self in presence — the Truth of who we are.

• Learn the latest science and scholarship on mindfulness, embodied cognition, and presence.
  
• Engage in creative contemplative practices related to dance, improvisational mindful movement, authentic creative expression, and collaborative performance.
• Cultivate a practice of radical presence, awareness, wonder, and awe of ourselves and the environment we exist in.
  
• Self-study through stillness, writing, and creative dialog/collaborative storytelling.
• Deepen the connection to self and others through self-expression.

Experience the practices with a live accompaniment from Grammy-nominated multi-instrumentalist and song-writing musician Tauwoo.
