About this event
Living at the intersection of philosophy, spirituality, and culture, The Essential Ingredient: Remaking Ourselves in Times of Crisis is a frank conversation with the reader about what we have to change within ourselves in order to be ready to change the world. Drawn from insights gleaned from the ancient art of alchemy as well as some of the wisest thinkers of history and today, The Essential Ingredient isn’t about magic as most people understand it. Instead, it’s a meditation on the transformative power available when we open ourselves to the full spectrum of life’s possibilities. Keri Mangis is a TEDx speaker and multi-award-winning author whose work stands at the crossroads of culture, consciousness, and transformation. She challenges the status quo with a clear, courageous voice, calling us to move beyond platitudes and into the deeper work of remaking ourselves in times of crisis. With over twenty years of study in yoga, Ayurveda, alchemy, Jungian psychology, and archetypes, Keri brings depth, nuance, and urgency to the cultural conversation. Join Keri for this talk, Q&A, and signing for The Essential Ingredient: Remaking Ourselves in Times of Crisis.
