Event Description

A yoga practice gives us the freedom to explore our hearts, bodies, and minds. But how do we bring this sense of expansion into other aspects of our lives? Join Yoga Journal in this continuation of Naropa University's Radical Compassion Symposium, where you'll learn how to bring this freedom into the world. In this engaging discussion, you'll discover how today's visionaries are incorporating yoga and mindfulness into the highest levels of professional sports, business, and philanthropy to create a more compassionate and mindful global community. Don't miss this unique opportunity to explore and share techniques used by some of the world's leading companies and organizations.


The panel features Sharon Salzberg, celebrated meditation teacher and New York Times bestselling author; Jeff Walker, philanthropist and co-author of The Generosity Network; George Mumford, sports psychologist and mindfulness teacher for the New York Knicks; and Gopi Kallayil, chief evangelist for brand marketing at Google.


There will be an opportunity for audience Q&A and the panel will share meditation techniques and practices.


Proceeds from this evenings events will benefit Insight Meditation Society and Cambridge Insight Meditation Center.
