Participants will take data about our native reptiles & amphibians as well as exploring other science themes (tidepool monitoring, bird monitoring, etc.).

Reptile Behavioral Training Demonstration

Many people believe that reptiles have primitive brains that are only capable of instinctive behavior. If you have ever interacted with a snake or lizard you know they are capable of much more than just instinctual behaviors. We will be answering many questions scientists are only just now posing about these fascinating, misunderstood and grossly underrated creatures! Then you will know the answers to: Are reptiles smart? Can they think and solve problems? Do they have feelings? and much more

The Science of Mindfulness

Honey Yoga is beyond excited to once again partner with the San Diego Festival of Science and Engineering, this year to present the science of mindfulness.

No longer just hippy woo-woo talk, science is unlocking the power of mindfulness and proving it can increase our well-being and happiness.
After the discussion join us in an all-levels yoga practice, to cultivate and embody mindfulness. No prior yoga experience necessary. The yoga portion of the evening will end in a guided meditation and then you'll be super ready for cocktails and questions!
