Pop Conscious Exploration: A Modern Toolbox for Inner Discovery
Explores how the pop culture we consume tells us about our inner world and society.
Next Session Date TBD
The entertainment that enlivens us can point us both inward to our truest self and then outward into a greater experience of our community and the world. We look closely at what music, films, books, TV series, or video games are most enjoyable to us and what they tell us about who we are. What’s popular at the box office and on TV tells us something about our society. We’ll use these clues to plot a course forward into a more connected and deeply satisfying life.
