Fall 2020 Event Registration

International Perspectives on Embodied Consciousness

When: November 16, 2020
Time: 2-3:30pm

Where: Zoom*

As part of OISS's International Education Week, come join Veronica Franco and Julia McClenon for a hands-on, practical workshop addressing international perspectives on embodied consciousness.

In this workshop for international students and post-docs, facilitators will discuss how society and our unique cultural experiences may teach us to ignore our body’s basic signals such as hunger, tiredness, thirst, need for play, and desire to move, and how this harms our overall wellness.

To reverse this mind-over-matter paradigm, we'll discuss how to begin “de-programming” by listening to the body through hands-on practices, discussing how culture shock has an impact on the body and mind, and exploring the power of the body and the connection it has with our well-being.

*After you RSVP, you will receive a confirmation e-mail containing the Zoom link. Please contact graddiv-internationalpeer@ucsb.edu if you do not receive this e-mail.
