Doing Philosophy in Nature | Andrea Christelle | TEDxSedona

We often find ourselves thinking through the most difficult questions of our personal and professional lives inside geometrically shaped buildings, sitting at desks. Philosopher Andrea Christelle explores what happens when we go outside to think things through and talk them over on our feet. Four values that can help us understand the meaning and purpose in our lives and organizations, and that are connected in surprising ways, are: nature, judgment, authenticity, and love. Andrea founded and for five years directed Philosophy in the Public Interest at Northern Arizona University. She has designed programs that put philosophy in museums, movie theatres, private homes, high schools, historic hotels, artists’ studios, small businesses, community centers and more. She is passionate about helping people understand the practical value that philosophy has for our everyday lives. She believes that the creative and critical work of philosophy can help us understand ourselves, other people and the world. Andrea studied at Tulane University, the University of Southern Mississippi, and The Ohio State University. Andrea serves on the boards of the League of Women Voters of the Greater Verde Valley, SOPHIA—the Society of Philosophers of America, and the Verde Valley Forum for Public Affairs. She has previously served on the boards of the Sedona International Film Festival and the Verde Valley Regional Economic Organization. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
