Cassandra Vieten, PhD - Meet Dr. Cassandra Vieten, Clinical Professor at UC San Diego and Director of the Center for Mindfulness, and Research Director at the Arthur C. Clarke Center for Human Imagination
Join us as we dive into the inspiring career of Cassandra Vieten, PhD, Clinical Professor at UC San Diego and Director of the Center for Mindfulness and Director of Research at the Arthur C. Clarke Center for Human Imagination at UC San Diego. World renowned for her work in integrative mental health, mind-body medicine, and personal transformation, Dr. Vieten shares her insights on finding purpose.
From her early drive at 18 to a pivotal moment at the Institute of Noetic Sciences, she discusses how transformative experiences and a strong sense of purpose have guided her professional and personal life.
Dr. Vieten emphasizes the importance of shifting perspectives, helping people see new possibilities, and cultivating kindness towards themselves and others. She draws from various cultural practices to highlight the role of transformative experiences and rites of passage. For those seeking direction, she offers practical advice on focusing on short-term assignments and creating supportive conditions, such as community, spiritual connection, and daily mind-body practices.
Despite reaching high levels of success, Dr. Vieten candidly shares her personal struggles, including turning to addictions and the need for maintaining support structures to stay on track. Reflecting on her impact through roles at the Institute of Noetic Sciences and UC San Diego, she envisions a world where more people live aligned with their purpose, leading to radical positive change.
“Your job is not to directly pursue the purpose right away. It's to ask yourself, what conditions do I need to cultivate in my life to make that purpose really blossom, really flourish.” - Cassandra Vieten, PhD
