Using experiential learning techniques from the Stanford Graduate School of Business, we will explore practices for cultivating and enriching our awareness of the here and now, using each of our three centers of intelligence — head, heart and body. We will also explore ways to see past our own filters and blind spots by comparing our self- perceptions with others’ responses to us, within safe, authentic dialogue.

Participants will come away with increased somatic, emotional, and cognitive awareness, and both introspective and interpersonal tools for continuing to peel away veils and see ourselves more clearly.
