PANELIST Michelle Favin

Michelle Favin (b. 1989) is a mixed-race Korean American painter based in San Francisco. Guided by Buddhist principles and Korean shamanic traditions, her work explores the intersection of meditative practice and modern life. Through intuitive layers of natural pigments, oil, and ink, her paintings are an intimate record of this self-excavation — each mark a response to the push and pull between stillness and movement, presence and distraction, interconnection and individuation. Drawing from her spiritual lineages in an increasingly fractured world, Favin's studio practice seeks to unearth inherited wisdom to help guide how to make a life feel whole. Her paintings emerge as sites of contemplation, where personal excavation reveals threads of collective resonance and collective questioning — how do we pause in the space between stimulus and response and what emerges when we do? Favin holds an M.Ed. in Arts and Education from Harvard University and a B.A. in Sociology from New York University, which inform her view of artistic practice as a space to imagine and enact equitable futures. She has exhibited at Glass Rice in San Francisco and completed residencies at Project Zero at Harvard and PADA in Portugal. Her work is held in private collections worldwide.

PANELIST Leia Layus

Leia Layus is a yoga teacher, integrative therapist, and contemplative artist whose work resides at the intersection of psychology, Eastern philosophy, somatic movement, and contemplative spirituality. Blending Vinyasa, Hatha, and restorative SATYA Yoga with her love of poetry and East–West psychology, she creates classes and experiences that offer both grounding and subtle refinement. A longtime student of Tias and Surya Little of Prajna Yoga, Leia integrates ancient wisdom with modern science to support the intelligence of the subtle body. Her studies of Cha Dao—the Way of Tea—under WuDe of Global Tea Hut, along with her graduate training in Integral Counseling Psychology at CIIS, deepen her devotion to ritual, embodiment, and presence across all of her artistic and healing work offerings.

PANELIST Dr. Sará Yafah King

Dr. Sará Yafah King is a neuroscientist, artist, political and learning scientist, education philosopher, social impact entrepreneur, and certified yoga and meditation teacher. She is also the CEO and Co-Founder of MindHeart AI, a liberatory technology company dedicated to advancing collective well-being, intergenerational and planetary healing by bridging the neuroscience of well-being and collective-healing with AI.
