Embodiment, Virtue, and Recovering from the Meaning Crisis with Dr. John Vervaeke

University of Toronto professor, Dr. John Vervaeke joins the show to talk about his work in exploring one of the most profound crisis facing us in the modern age, the meaning crisis. We discuss what meaning is, how we can cultivate it through body based practices, and what awaits us on the other side.

If you wish to explore Dr. Vervaeke's work further, I highly encourage checking out his 50 part lecture series, 'Awakening From the Meaning Crisis' over on YouTube. You can also find his new series, 'After Socrates' airing weekly on that same channel.
