'Meaning Is A Practice Not An Answer' w. Dr. Tanya Luhrmann - ep #41

Do you want to really feel alive? Do you to feel like you’re living a meaningful life? Do you want to feel more connected to your values?We’re spending time with Professor Tanya Luhrmann from Stanford University. She’s a psychological anthropologist known for her studies of modern-day witches, and charismatic Christians who is particularly interested in how culture shapes their spiritual experiences. Tanya Luhrmann is a rock star in the anthropology world.She was elected a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2003, president of the Society for Psychological Anthropology for 2008 and was given a Guggenheim award.Tanya's work is relevant because through her research of spiritual communities (and in this interview) she breaks down exactly how religious people bring their beliefs to life. Techniques that you - whether you're religious or non-religious - can use to make what is most important to you real in your every day.There's so much in this conversation and I can't wait for you to hear it.
