Sam Patterson — The Science & Spirituality of Wellbeing

Happiness isn’t a one-size-fits-all phenomenon. What brings one person bliss might be another’s headache, but there are some habits and practices that have a long spiritual history of improving wellbeing.

As we move deeper into the twenty-first century, what can science teach us about taking control of our happiness?

In this two-hour workshop, we’ll put the hands of spirituality and science together as we explore ten practices that have empirical scientific backing behind them.

We’ll also explore the ways in which aspects of spiritual practice can be validated by science. Is happiness genetic? How can we tailor our practice to our own personality? Can we be happier?
