Course Description
Energy. Vibrations. Good vibes. Bad vibes. Ugly vibes. I vibe. You vibe. We vibe. It's all a vibe.
Everyone from musicians and athletes to poets and religious gurus talk about the vibe.
But what exactly are we talking about? How do we define or explain the vibe? What's its nature? Is it real or just a catchy phrase used in popular culture? How does it work? How can we experience it more deeply? How might we refine and advance our understanding of it?
If you find these questions interesting, then this course is for you!
The course addresses three main questions:
- How do people talk about the vibe?
- How might we define the vibe?
- And what is the nature of the vibe – is it physical or metaphysical, spiritual or scientific, material or immaterial?
This course is intellectual, philosophical, and knowledge-driven. But the course also includes guided meditations and visionary work to help you feel and experience the vibe.
The course is approximately two hours long, but is divided into mini-lectures, talks, and exercises. You will also get links to external resources, some suggested readings, and a free mini-workbook to aid your study of the vibe.
Let’s vibe, together!
