Dr Steve Taylor – Across the Universe: the Magic and Mystery of the Beatles
What made the Beatles so extraordinary?
Join psychologist and author Steve Taylor for a music-filled talk that dives into the Beatles’ history, exploring how the Fab Four harnessed their creativity and spirituality to become the world’s most influential band. Steve will share the psychological traits that made the Beatles so prolific and progressive, and show how their greatest songs were written with spontaneous unconscious inspiration.
Steve will share lessons from the band’s creativity and explain how meditation caused an explosion of creativity in the Beatles – but also led to their breakup. As a musician himself, Steve will end by singing one or two Beatles songs, and everyone is welcome to join in!
