New York Comic Con Metaverse 2020: Second Batch of Panels Revealed

ReedPOP has revealed the second wave of panels for New York Comic Con Metaverse 2020. Fans from around the globe will be able to partake in panels delivered straight to their homes virtually (and for free) on the official NYCC YouTube Channel throughout the convention’s scheduled October 8-11, 2020 time frame.

A panel titled “The Jedi Mind – Lessons in Mindfulness from Star Wars” featuring Amy Ratcliffe (managing editor of Nerdist) and Ashley Eckstein has been added to the schedule.

The Jedi Mind – Lessons in Mindfulness from Star Wars

The code that all Jedi strive to follow offers principles for being at peace and learning. In fact, these tenets are useful not just in a galaxy far, far away, but here in our own world. While the Force isn’t present in our galaxy, we can still learn from how the Jedi use it to guide their lives. And we can use these lessons about the Force as a gateway to studying mindfulness and putting practices into action. Join us for an exploration of how the practice of mindfulness inspires and empowers some of our favorite Star Wars characters, and how we can bring some of that inspiration into our everyday lives. Panelists include Amy Ratcliffe, Managing Editor of Nerdist and author of The Jedi Mind; Ashley Eckstein, the voice of Ahsoka Tano on Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels, and founder of Her Universe; and Dr. Drea Letamendi psychologist and co-host of the Lattes with Leia podcast.
