Vital Signs: The Nature and Nurture of Passion w/Gregg Levoy @ Mind Science

What inspires passion in your life? And what defeats it? How do you lose it and how do you get it back? In this talk, Gregg Levoy, best-selling author of Callings (1998, Random House) and Vital Signs (2015, Penguin), will help you explore how you can cultivate not just a specific passion, but passion as a mindset—a stance—that helps bring vitality to all your engagements, from work and relationships to creativity and spiritual life.

We’ll examine the endless, yet endlessly fruitful, tug-of-war between passion and security in our lives, the wild in us and the tame. And we’ll do some courageous inquiry into our dis-passion—where we’re numb, depressed, stuck and bored in our lives—so that we can rework these tendencies in ourselves, claim our rightful inheritance of vitality, and get our spark back.

Along with being an award-winning writer, Gregg Levoy is a fulltime lecturer and seminar leader in the business, educational and human potential arenas. He is a former columnist and reporter for USA Today and the Cincinnati Enquirer, has written for the New York Times Magazine, The Washington Post, Psychology Today, American Health, and other publications. He has spoken at the Smithsonian Institution, Microsoft, the Environmental Protection Agency, the National Conference on Positive Aging, and the American Counseling Association, and been a frequent guest of the media, including ABC-TV, CNN, NPR, and PBS.
