It's almost time for the
release of Season 2 of our AWAKEN podcast hosted by
Raveena Aurora! The first two episodes will go live on
Tuesday, October 4. Subscribe now in the Apple Podcast App, Spotify, or wherever you listen
to podcasts to get notified of the release.
The new season is inspired by the Mandala Lab and explores the
transformative power of emotions by using a Tibetan Buddhist mandala
as a guide. In seven episodes, Buddhist teachers, writers, artists, and
activists wrestle with five difficult feelings: anger, pride,
attachment, envy, and ignorance. We take a fresh look at how emotions can
influence our day-to-day experiences and what they might be able to teach
us if we get curious.
On Friday, October 7, we'll be
celebrating the new season with a special K2 Friday Night AWAKEN Launch Party
with Raveena Aurora. The night will feature specialty cocktails, music
by DjLoga, a special tour of the Mandala Lab, a meditation moment,
podcast listening party, temporary tattoos, and free admission to all the
galleries. Join us!

Our celebrated on-stage talk series Brainwave,
which investigates how our minds shape our everyday experiences, returns
in person this month!
This year we explore our emotions with five programs that focus on
five lives and five experiences of our most challenging
feelings. Join us for this special Brainwave intensive between people from
all walks of life navigating difficult emotions, and scientists poised to
explain the workings of the mind as it develops or redirects these afflictive
states.
With each session you will have the opportunity to join author and performer
Kevin Townley for a 35-minute Wild Wisdom Tour that will examine
how both sacred and secular art can help us unlock the wild wisdom of human
emotion. Tours will be offered before or after the talk at 6:00 PM
and 8:30 PM. Learn more.
