An event powered by:
How can we change our current behavior that could lead to a positive impact on ourselves and the world? Can we create a better and more sustainable world by changing our mindset? Does it really matter what one individual does?
DANSIC20 Mindfulness X Sustainability was an event created to explore the nexus between these two buzzwords. Situating itself in the context of a social health issue, while at the same time crossing into the future of our planet, DANSIC challenged themselves to understand their intertwined relationship and where the subtle line might lie.
About the event
THE EVENT
As a response to the pandemic, the DANSIC20 Team created a digital journey in the year 2019-2020! Mindfulness X Sustainability consisted of a series of mini-podcast, with four episodes revolving around different pillars, each covering different aspects of the topic, and a concluding podcast to close the "loop".
The idea behind the event was to open our listeners' minds and teach them how to better be aware of themselves and the world around them, which ultimately leads to a more fulfilling and sustainable lifestyle.

THE STRUCTURE
To kick-off the journey, we invited all to participate to a starting survey, to better understand their habits. All followers were connected to a social community, were nudges were given to foster sustainable habit changes.
The four podcasts, core of the experience, are structured in a conversation with several experts, who pushed the listener into an introspective experience and raise awareness.
We concluded the event with a final survey, to understand if we managed to push a behaviour change in our followers, and a conclusive podcast in reflection to what we all have learned.

Consumerism
In a world of constant consumerism, there is a strong urge in society to slow down, think and evaluate our choices.
In the podcast, we will learn about the beauty of slow-living and minimalism, dip into thoughts about the circular economy and waste reduction. Can we use this knowledge as a tool to create awareness for ourselves and others on the topic? Discover potential life hacks on how to reduce consumption in your own daily life and get inspired on how to make Green Living easy. Small changes or even just a mindset change can lead to a positive impact on our planet.

Food
Food is undeniably one of the common denominators that links all of us together, one way or another.
Have you ever thought about where the food you eat comes from? Is it locally sourced or in season? What is intuitive eating and why do I have preconceptions towards veganism? Are there concealed by-products in the world’s food systems and can we prevent food waste? So, what a better way to connect than through food and meaningful conversation.
Let’s speculate together!

Flow and Mind
An important aspect of living a healthy life for mind and body is to create a sense of belonging. Being part of a community, where people can meet and connect in real life and coexist away from their screens, is one aspect. The other is to look within yourself. Finding your own voice, your purpose, calmness and inner peace. Meditation can give us space, and teach us to accept the Now by empowering us to get focused and aware of our own thoughts and the world around us.
In the podcast, you will be introduced to guided meditation and learn some tricks and techniques that can be easily integrated into your daily life.
