MindshareLA & UCLA Present
2020 Vision Series: Health, Happiness & the Human Being
Saturday May 2nd, 7pm at cross campus in dtla
As humanity races into the unknown it’s crucial that we remain strong and healthy to be prepared to face whatever is waiting for us. While our understanding of our own physiology continues to grow at a rapid rate we are still subject to the limits of personal entropy AKA the aging process; and while our neurobiology remains mostly unchanged since the time of our primate ancestors we are now being asked to navigate the stresses of our increasingly complex world. What is the current state of research and what wisdom might we glean to receive valuable insight into our own health, happiness and well-being?
The 2020 Vision Series is a four part journey that MindshareLA is producing in collaboration with UCLA so please join us for the second event as we collectively explore how we can live the mst happy, healthy and engaged lives. In addition to the talks there will be the usual well-stocked bar, delicious food, delightful performances, and enlightened debauchery for which MindshareLA is known.
