Michael Murphy is one of the most inspiring integral thinkers and pioneers of our day. As founder of the Esalen Institute, Michael has befriended the best and the brightest evolutionary leaders for over forty years in fields from bodywork to philosophy. On a personal level, he always seeks the next edge of human potential, from building citizen diplomacy programs to creating the Esalen Center for Theory & Research to explore frontier subjects such as the survival of bodily death, subtle energies, and integral capitalism. With George Leonard, he's also created Integral Transformative Practice to empower people in their personal journey. In this radio show with Stephen Dinan, Michael explores "Integral Evolution" as a synthesis of his lifework and his books such as The Future of the Body – a synthesis that is both scholarly and practical. Join us for an exciting show with one of the founders of the human potential movement.
