The Esoteric Symbolism of the Movie GRAVITY: Suffering, Purpose and the Formula for Transformation

The Psychology of Scent

Ordinary Ritual: Making Meaning in Everyday Life

Regardless of prior interest in the film, using three landmark texts of philosophical, psychological, & spiritual thought, this class further illuminates themes of Gravity, such as purpose, duty, distraction, & free will. 

Exploring the connections between scent, emotions, memories, social relationships, & our ability to navigate our environment, participants will find that in a profound sense, aromas are part of who we are. 

Through exploring the role of ritual in various cultures & wisdom traditions, this class aims to help participants make meaning out of everyday experiences and live a more interconnected & inspired way.
