This place is not only where our nervous system resets, 也是我们的创造力所在, zest, truest voice, and zone of genius dwell - boons to any academic writer, teacher, 和机遇创造者. It is also from this place that clarity of purpose arises about our role in social transformation. In this workshop we explore the idea and practice of "resting to rise" for academics. 我们介绍瑜伽内德拉-它是什么, what it does, 它与教师的相关性, and, most importantly, how to try it and even fit it in to your already-full schedule.
