Global Wisdom, Global Wellness

3 Credits

In this course, students explore wellbeing as a personal and planetary affair. Given that the contemporary context is characterized by stress, anxiety, separation from nature, and an increasing inability to relate to others, students will consider how other paradigms and ways of knowing in the world might offer new ways forward. By analyzing diverse global theories and wisdom traditions, students reconsider the current crisis, experiment with new practices, and ask: How might we individually and collectively create a better future?
