Tiny Experiments: Discovering Your Path to Health & Happiness
Details
Play to Succeed!
This sequel to Dr. Steven Leib's previous presentation about Tiny Habits is based on the concepts in the new book Tiny Experiments (2025) by Anne-Laure Le Cunff, PhD. Dr. Le Cunff is a neuroscientist and founder of Ness Labs, a platform dedicated to neuroscience-based learning and creativity. Her thesis challenges traditional goal-setting by advocating for a playful, experimental approach to personal growth and habit change. It encourages small, low-risk experiments that embrace curiosity, uncertainty and even failure in ways that promote adaptability, self-discovery and long term behavior change.
In this inspiring presentation, Dr. Leib will engage participants in a discussion of these concepts as they might specifically relate to plant-based nutrition and healthier behaviors in general. RSVP here.
Let's Eat Together!
We will start our time together with a whole food, plant-based potluck. Please bring a dish to share that is made exclusively from whole plant ingredients and is free of added oil. Please avoid bringing dishes containing meat, dairy, fish, eggs, or other animal-derived ingredients.
Here are some recipe sites for inspiration:
If you are new to this way of eating, feel free to bring something simple like a fresh fruit platter or green salad.
