“A Beautiful Accident does not try to solve the challenge of 21st century consciousness but rather opens up new conversations and areas for research to better relate to our living world.

In an emerging ecological era, it is time to step aside the gridlock of mind body dualism and explore new ways of accessing, experiencing and embodying consciousness. By drawing together physical awareness and technological invention with mindful experience, our lived encounters with reality may become richer and more meaningful. We may even increase our receptiveness and capacity to think along with each other”

– Dr. Rachel Armstrong
