A Mindfulness Experience with Geofrey Master and J.D. Talasek

Thank you for joining us for A Mindfulness Experience with Geofrey Master and J.D. Talasek, director of Cultural Programs of the National Academy of Sciences. A spiritual traveler, Geof shared his strong and growing personal interest in Buddhism and how it has led him to travel to Nepal with some regularity over the past few years. Last summer, he was among those who briefly met the Dalai Lama, the highest spiritual leader of Tibetan Buddhism, in the Tsuglagkhang Complex, in Dharamsala, India. JD is a curator, researcher, and writer with an interest in exploring the intersection of art and science through collaborative and integrative work. He is the co-editor of the anthology, Integrative Contemporary Art and Science Practices: Building Catalytic Structures. J.D. serves as editor-in-chief of Leonardo Journal (MIT Press) -a peer-reviewed journal exploring the intersections of art, science, and technology since 1968.  This free, weekly, online event is brought to you by the GW Office of Integrative Medicine & Health, AIM Health Institute, and the GW Resiliency & Well-being Center.  Be well, Team GW + AIM Related Links Article: Heal Faster: Unlock Your Body's Rapid Recovery Reflex (Book recommended by Dr. Kogan) https://www.simonandschuster.com/book...
