Gretchen Rubin, Bestselling Author of The Happiness Project

Join the beloved happiness expert Gretchen Rubin and discover how the five senses can get us out of our heads and back into the world to find our true happiness.

Gretchen Rubin has spent over a decade exploring the different routes to happiness and contentment – the subject of her wildly beloved books The Happiness Project and Better Than Before and chart-topping podcast Happier with Gretchen Rubin. In the process, she’s become part of the zeitgeist – appearing on Oprah, walking arm-in-arm with the Dalai Lama, and even becoming an answer on Jeopardy!

But for all her success, she realised that by focusing so much on the mind, she was missing out on the physical experience of being human. She realised that if we don’t engage with our senses, time passes without us fully experiencing it. And so, she set out on a journey to get out of her head and into the world – from enhancing her appreciation of food and nature to sharpening her memory by learning to see more clearly.

In this talk, she’ll share her story and the insights she gained – and offer practical ideas so that you can learn to explore the world more fully and get to know yourself along the way.
