My goal is to share some of the fascinating topics I have studied over the last few years traveling the world. These topics have radically helped me connect to nature, society, myself, and beyond. I hope to inspire and encourage students at the University of Washington to explore their lives in different ways by providing an array of different daily practices/activities, and weekly discussion topics. Each week there will be a few readings and exercises to practice in class and outside of it. Students will keep a log/journal of what they have read and or practiced. In the later weeks I will ask students to bring forth some of their own practices that they feel help them to thrive.

 

Working title:

Lets Thrive! How much fun can we have on this big blue ball we call earth?
