The Science of Everything (6-week course)
April 10 to May 15 | Thursdays | 12:30 to 2:00 p.m.
This creative, unique discussion group will gather weekly to focus on the sweet spot where physics and metaphysics meet. Share insights and developments on such disparate topics as epigenetics, the singularity, the law of attraction, Drake’s equation, Occam’s razor and much more. Each week's meeting will focus on a new topic, selected from recommendations from the facilitator and participants, and will include handouts with excerpts from the works of Albert Einstein and Richard Feynman, Masuru Emoto’s water experiments and astronaut Edgar Mitchell’s Institute of Noetic Sciences. A different topic will be discussed each week. No previous readings are required, but curiosity is a must!
Price: $49
