Breathwork Journey Conscious Connected Breathwork* is an experiential practice that has therapeutic benefits. By consciously and actively breathing in a connected, circular pattern, we can access our vast internal terrain and connect deeply to ourselves. This 1 hour journey will be practiced lying down to intentionally curated music. Instruction on the breath will be provided, and you will be safely supported throughout. Breathwork can provide openings into the soma, the energetic body, our psyche, emotions, and non-ordinary states of consciousness. Practicing this style of breathwork for a sustained period of time can shift typical patterns of thinking, catalyze expanded states of awareness, allow us to access our intuition and gain powerful insights into ourselves, release stored emotions, stress and tension, balance the nervous system, and enter into deep states of rest and relaxation. Led by Certified Breathwork Facilitators Marc Dube and Erin Henderson of OCEA Breathwork. Marc and Erin have been practicing this style of breathwork for over four years and have worked with others in the health and wellness field for many years. What to bring: water bottle pillow blanket a journal (if you like to write) an eye mask (optional) What to Know: Yoga mats and bolsters will be provided We recommend not eating a big meal for 2 hours before practice Wear comfy clothes, layers recommended Doors will open at 3.50pm For any questions, or if this event sells out and you'd like to be added to the waitlist, please email erin@oceabreathwork.ca follow us on IG @ocea.breathwork *Conscious Connected Breathwork is an active style of breathwork and may not be suitable for everyone.

As students and technology evolve, how is education changing to meet the needs of the new learner? What technologies or techniques will encourage learning? Where are the pain points for educators and learners? This Design Educators Summit seeks to explore the connections and disconnects of education with the goal to stimulate learning. Schedule 9:00-9:30 AM: Registation open 9:30 AM-10:30 AM: Keynote Teach Like No One Else Can , presented by Meg! Lewis Why teach like everyone else when you have something only you can offer? By digging into your perspective, personality, strengths and values, Meg helps you craft an education style so unique and impactful that it transforms more than just your students' experience, it reshapes the entire future of design education! When your teaching comes from an authentic place, you don’t just prepare students for what’s next, you inspire them to imagine it differently. The future of design is waiting, and it starts here, with you! 10:30 -10:45 AM: Break 10:45 AM- 11:45 PM: Workshops Choose one of two: 1. Developing Unicorn Assessments, presented by Diana Varma RGD An exploratory workshop with the goal of ideating and sharing new assessment ideas with like-minded educators. ‘Unicorn assessments’ are magical, in that they are fun for the instructor to develop, valuable for students to engage in and (dare I say) enjoyable to grade. They typically involve one, two or all three of Daniel Pink’s motivational framework components of autonomy, mastery and purpose. 2. Pairing is Caring, presented by Alanna Munro Learn about the font matrix method for pairing typefaces. This method involves looking closer at the underlying structure of the typeface and pairing it with an appropriate companion font. 11:45-12:00 PM: Break 12:00-12:45 PM : Keynote The Future of Design Education is Human. p resented by Ana Rita Morais The future of design education will not be written by algorithms or driven by the speed of technological disruption. It will be built—boldly and deliberately—by educators who champion curiosity, empathy, critical inquiry, ethical leadership, and deep human connection. In this talk, Ana Rita Morais challenges educators to rethink the learning environment, reimagine the role of the learner, redefine the responsibility of the instructor, and rebuild the curriculum through a human-centered lens. Through mentorship, peer connection, and radical empowerment, she calls for a new era of design education—one that values depth over speed, collaboration over competition, and humanity over optimization. The future isn’t about keeping pace with machines—it’s about setting a tempo only humans can create. 1:00-2:30 PM: Optional Networking Lunch (location TBD - pay your own way) Information Source: RGD | eventbrite
