This fall we're excited to offer several events featuring some of the world's top experts on "the science of a meaningful life": Dan Siegel, Shauna Shapiro, Richie Davidson, Jack Kornfield, Tara Brach, and our very own Dacher Keltner and Emiliana Simon-Thomas, among many others.

Learn how mindfulness can strengthen relationships at a full-day seminar on Mindfulness, Connection, and Compassion, led by inspiring teachers Dan Siegel, M.D., and Shauna Shapiro, Ph.D.
Their presentation will weave cutting-edge science into lecture, experiential exercises, and discussion, creating a day that is intellectually stimulating, emotionally rich, and deeply practical. Join us live in Berkeley or via webcast. 6 CEs available!
The renowned speakers at this two-day conference--including neuroscientist Richie Davidson, Ph.D., and leaders who have developed mindfulness programs at Aetna, Pixar, and elsewhere--will explore how these programs are working, why, and how they could benefit your workplace.
On day two of the program, in-depth workshops will give attendees an even more experiential, hands-on understanding of how mindfulness can be incorporated into their work lives.
CEs are now available for health and human resource professionals. For more on the significant scholarships for MBA students interested in socially conscious leadership, please contact eliseproulx@berkeley.edu.

The science is clear: Integrating social-emotional learning and mindfulness into our schools is good for both students and the adults who work with them.
Education professionals can learn how to cultivate this well-being within themselves and their students at the GGSC's fourth annual Summer Institute for Educators. New for 2016: Choose between two separate six-day, five-night residential retreats.
Deadline to apply is January 15, 2016. Partial scholarships and group discounts are available. See website for more info.
