Why Aren’t We Taught Happiness In School? (Jeff Lieberman, Sleepawake)

Synopsis

Jeff Lieberman is a visionary scientist, artist, and educator who masterfully blends technology with profound explorations of human connection and consciousness. He studied physics at MIT and was the former host of Discovery Channel’s Time Warp before founding Sleepawake Camp — a residential program that aims to help young adults develop well-being and self-awareness. I’ve always wondered, why don’t we have a school that teaches us what actually matters…like how our mind and emotions work? Then I found out what Jeff was doing with Sleepawake and was excited to learn more. In this convo, we discuss why we aren't taught the most important skills for happiness and well-being in our education system. His unique background bridging hard science and consciousness exploration offers fascinating insights into how we might change this.
