Sensing Mind Institute

Sensing Mind Institute is a school based on the belief that combining spiritual traditions and modern cognitive psychology provide a strong basis for developing potent human growth practices. 

Wisdom traditions can greatly enrich modern fields of science, such as cognitive psychology, social science, and neuroscience, by providing a rich source of essential research questions, philosophical sofistication, and powerful methods of inquiry/contemplation.

Modern scientific traditions have much to offer when it comes to developing the knowledge and practices found in the old wisdom traditions and making such knowledge and practices more accessible to modern-day people, who are accustomed to and shaped by the ways of thinking and speaking found in science.

SMI’s approach to personal and spiritual growth emphasises kindness, precision and humour.

The institute was founded by Dr Claus Springborg in October 2016.
