CONTEXT 

01  

THE PRACTICE

SECOND MIND is a human practice.

It draws from lived experience across cognitive science, aesthetic judgment, and strategic decision-making.

Sustained work across art, perception, and luxury environments informs its sensitivity to context and direction.

Long-standing contemplative practice – including meditation and silent retreat – shapes the discipline of attention at its core.

It is deliberately unscaled and individually held.

SECOND MIND was founded and is led by Dr. Poshita Writes, a cognitive scientist whose work sits at the intersection of perception, experience, and decision.

THE SPACE

Alongside individual engagements, SECOND MIND also convenes a small number of invitation-only sessions exploring questions at the intersection of perception, experience, and decision.

Participation in these sessions is considered through Private Inquiry.
