Mindful Democracy with Jeremy Engels


Listen Later

Jeremy David Engels is the liberal arts endowed Professor of Communication Arts & Sciences at Pennsylvania State University, the co-founder of Yoga Lab, and a longtime mindfulness and yoga teacher. His academic research reimagines democracy as a communal practice rooted in care, deliberation, and shared responsibility, emphasizing mindfulness as a core civic skill. His work has appeared in numerous

publications, including the Washington Post, Yoga Journal, and Tricycle
magazine. He has also earned the Karl Wallace Award, the New Investigator Award (from the National Communication Association), and Penn State’s Outstanding Tenure-line Faculty Teaching Award. And he is the author of six books, including Living Namaste: A Practical Guide to Yoga, Mindfulness, the Ethics of Oneness, and Building Community; and his latest, On Mindful Democracy: A Declaration of Interdependence to Mend a Fractured World. Our conversation focuses on the subject of that book, mindful democracy, and its implications for our current social and political conditions.
