CCP Summer Conference
Jun 6, 2026 8:30 AM | Organization: Center for Contemplative Practices We invite you to join us for a three-day summer conference in San Marcos, CA on how contemplative practices can transform higher education. The unprecedented events of the last year has made it evident that we need to prepare ourselves and our students to be resilient in the face of constant uncertainty. Research has demonstrated that contemplative practices can expand our capacity for compassion, focus and resilience. As a result, we are better able to meet collective local and global challenges with the intention of finding shared purpose grounded in a common humanity. This conference will provide a warm and supportive forum for experts and novices to explore and share contemplative practices that can help transform the educational experience of our students and improve the wellbeing of our faculty, staff and students. Our long-term goal is to create a contemplative community of educators-scholars- practitioners that can nourish and sustain our teaching, research, service, and personal practice.
