New York Comic Con goes virtual for 2020 on the New York Comic Con YouTube channel, and as part of 4 days of genre programming, the latest Star Wars panel is announced as Amy Ratcliffe, Dr. Drea Letamendi and Ashley Eckstein delve into the Jedi Mind.
The Jedi Mind – Lessons in Mindfulness from Star Wars
The code that all Jedi strive to follow offers principles for being at peace and learning. In fact, these tenets are useful not just in a galaxy far, far away, but here in our own world. While the Force isn’t present in our galaxy, we can still learn from how the Jedi use it to guide their lives. And we can use these lessons about the Force as a gateway to studying mindfulness and putting practices into action. Join us for an exploration of how the practice of mindfulness inspires and empowers some of our favorite Star Wars characters, and how we can bring some of that inspiration into our everyday lives.
Panelists include Amy Ratcliffe, Managing Editor of Nerdist and author of The Jedi Mind; Ashley Eckstein, the voice of Ahsoka Tano on Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels, and founder of Her Universe; and Dr. Drea Letamendi psychologist and co-host of the Lattes with Leia podcast.
Still no specific date or times announced yet, but we’ll bring it to you as soon as it is.
