Remembering wholeness of gifted being through mindful connection.
Welcome
The Gifted Mindfulness Collective emerged out of a need for mindfulness-based spaces and guidance that take into account the uncommon intensity, complexity and entelechy of gifted adults. Founded in 2019 by Kelly Pryde, PhD in partnership with InterGifted, we explore mindfulness as a transformative path to wholeness of gifted being through community, courses, personal depth work and creative expression. We create spaces of refuge and exploration with participants from around the world who are dedicated to discovering and using their gifts in conscious ways.
​
There is deep intelligence about the flow of your gifted being―and your life―in embodied mindful awareness.
Our approach
Gifted-specific mindfulness is grounded in spiritual wisdom traditions, depth psychologies, and a holistic view of giftedness that encompasses embodied, emotional, sensual, creative and existential intelligences, as well as mental intelligence. Drawing on the Sanskrit root of the word mindfulness, smriti, which means “remembrance of our true nature”, our approach focuses on awakening to and embodying a wholeness of gifted being beyond familial and cultural conditioning. We remember this wholeness through the path of right relationship: a deep connection with our inner and outer nature based on respect, responsibility and reciprocity.

Exploring the Depths of the Gifted Mind
Part essay, part conversation, InterGifted's founding director Jennifer Harvey Sallin and GMC founder Kelly Pryde look at how depth psychology opens doorways for us to come into right relationship with our giftedness, making space for and welcoming all of our ways of gifted being.
Article: Befriending Our Gifted Minds
In this paper written for the Advanced Development Journal, GMC founder, Kelly Pryde shares her journey in discovering the transformative power of mindfulness for supporting the inner experience of giftedness. Buddhist & modern psychology, along with the experiences of other gifted adults, are woven throughout.
This compilation is the result of a yearlong contemplative journey taken by 20 gifted women to "retrieve the bones" – to bring back the voices of gifted women who came before us and the energies of feminine wisdom within us longing to be heard and remembered into conscious awareness. It includes 26 expressions of story, art, and poetry giving voice to deep knowings about giftedness and humanness often silenced in a culture that thrives on mental intellect and productivity. Retrieving the Bones offers a medicine for healing and a map to guide us forward on our gifted journeys.
