About us
WHO WE ARE
Veredas Institute is formed by professionals from areas such as Health, Neuroscience Research, and Business, offering courses, seminars and workshops for the promotion of such contemplative practices, striving to diminish the impact of emotional and physical demands which fall upon us all, through the benefits that are derived from such practices on the contemporary Human Being. Understanding that such an impact is formed from the wear-and-tear and exhaustion that occur from demands and strains posed upon us by daily life. From the personal experience of each participant, the Institute believes that the practice of contacting oneself (the subjectivation of our inner experience), instead of the plain objectivation of duties, has beneficial effects on well being, health, and creativity. With this in mind, and through a multi professional work pushing our events, we strive to approach the crucial points of Human Existence which often prevent us from living a more fulfilling life.
