Education as Spiritual Transformation | Al Silva | TEDxLagunaBlancaSchool

In his talk, Al Silva conveys his perspective on how life philosophy can affect personal growth. He captivates the young minds of students and teachers, while sharing the importance of exploring opportunities that arise from educational formats. This leads to the long term transformation that can occur when someone steps outside of their comfort zone and realizes the importance of awareness and self development. Al Silva is a local Santa Barbara educator, yoga instructor, tutor and academic mentor whose passion lies in the intersections between the secular and spiritual dimensions of human experience. Formerly a biomedical researcher and a religious studies scholar, Al has worked in academia his entire life, and loves helping others achieve a sense of personal fulfillment along the sometimes arduous and tricky paths of academic success. When he is not helping students at Laguna Blanca, you can find him teaching (and taking) yoga classes at Yoga Soup, and enjoying the delightful food and music that Santa Barbara has to offer. His TEDx talk is based on his experience as both a long-term student and teacher, and sheds light on how education offers opportunities for personal growth and spiritual transformation. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
