SUMMARY:Monday Salon Series: Openness is the New Mindfulness
DESCRIPTION:Openness is the New Mindfulness Flyer \nHow Cultivating Openness\nCan Foster Flourishing\nMonday October 27\, 2025\n7:00 – 8:30 pm (PST)\nPresenter: Jonathan Schooler\nConcord Hall\, 1407 Chapala Street\,\nSanta Barbara\, CA\nLive and Live-streaming*\nFree and Open to All \nThis lecture/discussion explores how cultivating the personality trait of openness could foster\nindividual and community flourishing. Dr. Jonathan Schooler presents evidence that openness\nto experience—linked to creativity\, intellectual humility\, reduced prejudice\, and concern for\nhumanity’s future—can be systematically enhanced through targeted interventions. The\npresentation reveals how simple daily practices—asking meaningful questions\, breaking\nroutines\, and engaging with art—cultivate the open-mindedness essential for reducing\nauthoritarianism\, enhancing cross-cultural understanding\, and building thriving societies. \nJonathan Schooler\, PhD\, is a Distinguished Professor of Psychological and Brain\nSciences at the University of California Santa Barbara\, Director of UCSB’s Center\nfor Mindfulness and Human Potential\, and Acting Director of the Sage Center for the\nStudy of the Mind. His research intersects philosophy and psychology\, including the\nrelationship between mindfulness and mind-wandering and theories of\nconsciousness.\nFor more information: http://www.worldculture.org
