Finding Meaning: Purpose & Metacognition

Thursday, March 5, -
Speaker(s): Arthur C. Brooks
We all want to find happiness through a life lived with purpose. But how do our ways of thinking help or hinder us from finding meaning in our lives? How can conscious awareness of one's emotions - a practice called "metacognition" - open up new possibilities for true flourishing? Join us for a lecture by Arthur Brooks, Professor at Harvard Business School, and a conversation with Iain McGilchrist (Oxford) and Nita Farahany (Duke Law).
