Na vida, tudo o que a Susana faz encontra-se interligado de alguma forma. O desporto, a investigação, o mindfulness, os retiros de silêncio. Susana vem contar-nos um pouco daquilo que tem vindo a ser o seu percurso, marcado pelo querer fazer mais e dar o melhor de si. Um percurso verdadeiramente inspiracional. Susana Novais Santos obtained an MSc in Engineering and Physical Science in Medicine at Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine, University of London (2000), and a PhD in Neuroengineering at the University of Pennsylvania (Ivy League), Philadelphia (2007). • Moving to Asia at the young age of 16 totally changed her life. Falling in love with the culture, Susana started practicing meditation, tai chi, chi kung and yoga. She learnt everything she could about Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism, and absorbed the Eastern philosophy and way of life. Susana is a certified Mindfulness instructor by the University of California at San Diego (2016). • Susana is also a humanitarian athlete. An ultramarathon swimmer and runner, she is the only Portuguese woman who has swum from Berlengas Islands to Peniche (16 km), as well as from Cíes Islands to Baiona (15 km), in Spain. She embraces self-transcending sports challenges for humanitarian reasons. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
