Nurturing the Joy of Movement
Dr. Kelly McGonigal with Katie Hurley & Dr. John Duffy

McGonigal will show how movement is intertwined with some of the most basic human joys, including self-expression, social connection, and mastery–and why it is a powerful antidote to the modern epidemics of depression, anxiety and loneliness. Here is a revolutionary narrative that goes beyond familiar arguments in favor of exercise to illustrate why movement is integral to our happiness. Learn what you can do in your own life to harness the power of movement to create meaning and connection. She will be in conversation with Dr. John Duffy and Katie Hurley.
