Workshop on exploring emotions of caregiving through dance at NYU's humanistic medicine program
In March 2023, I will work with medical students, staff/faculty at NYULMC/Bellevue, public health students, dentistry students, and nursing students as part of NYU's humanistic medicine program to explore the emotions surrounding caregiving. 

Bharatanatyam has in it codified an array of emotions, called “rasas”. The nine rasas (“Navarasa”) include love, laughter, sorrow, anger, courage, fear, disgust, wonder, and peace. While Bharatanatyam is a form rooted in tradition, the emotions laid out are relevant even today, and perhaps more so.
​
In this workshop, participants will explore the various emotions they feel while taking care of their patients. By bringing in rhythm, movement, melody, and music, we will explore aspects of caregiving through the language of dance.
