About this event

The Dalai Lama Center for Peace and Education is pleased to announce:

The Joy of Movement and Heart-Mind Well-Being with Kelly McGonigal

Registrants will receive a Zoom link to attend the webinar live, as well as a private link to a recording of the webinar to watch within a week of the webinar if they cannot join in at the scheduled time.
Join best-selling author and TED speaker Kelly McGonigal, PhD, for our Heart-Mind Live webinar on how to harness the power of movement to increase happiness, resilience, and well-being in both adults and children.
People who are physically active are not only physically healthier. They also have a stronger sense of purpose and experience more gratitude, love, and hope. They handle stress more effectively and feel more capable of facing the challenges in their lives. They feel more connected to their communities and are less likely to suffer from loneliness or become depressed. These benefits are seen throughout the lifespan and around the world.
In this webinar, learn how and why physical activity promotes resilience, belonging, and even meaning in life. From the biological, including how exercise remodels the brain to make you more receptive to joy and social connection; to the psychological, such as how movement can empower identity, self-expression, and self-confidence.
Kelly will also give practical guidelines for maximizing these benefits, no matter what your current activity level or challenges, and how to make movement part of your life. She'll also share the most important things you can do to inspire a love of movement in children and youth.
The session will include a Q&A.

This webinar is for educators, parents, caregivers and service providers interested in supporting children's development. 

Kelly McGonigal

Kelly McGonigal is a psychologist who specializes in understanding the mind-body relationship and harnessing the power of community. She believes that it is possible to experience hope, joy, and meaning, even when life is difficult. And that the best way to do this is to connect—with one another, and with something bigger than ourselves.

She is the best-selling author of The Willpower Instinct and The Upside of Stress. Her latest book, The Joy of Movement, explores why physical exercise is a powerful antidote to the modern epidemics of depression, anxiety, and loneliness.

Kelly also helped create the Stanford Compassion Cultivation Training, a program now taught around the world that helps individuals strengthen their empathy, compassion, and self-compassion.

Andy Price (Executive Director, Dalai Lama Center for Peace and Education) will moderate this special-event webinar.
