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, coaching and creative expression. We create spaces of refuge and exploration with participants from around the world who are dedicated to reclaiming 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, imaginal and existential intelligences, as well as mental intelligence. Our approach focuses not only on learning to tend the present-moment inner experience of giftedness, but also on reclaiming the parts of the gifted psyche that have been repressed due to cultural conditioning ― the parts of ourselves longing for actualization. Learning to recognize and embody the full range of our giftedness through mindful connection, we come more and more into flow of gifted being.
