Welcome to the Sunder Foundation

Celebrating discovery and innovation in the science, art and culture of mental wellness.

I enjoy my imagination.

“I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.”
Albert Einstein

I am grateful for my strength.

“You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it.”

Maya Angelou

I am grateful for my flexibility.

“The world as we have created it is a process of our thinking. It cannot be changed without changing our thinking.”
Albert Einstein

I have fun with my creativity.

“Creativity is intelligence having fun.”
Albert Einstein

I connect to my inner artist & vision.

“Anybody with artistic ambitions is always trying to reconnect with the way they saw things as a child."
Tim Burton

I honor the amazing storytellers in my life.

“If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.”
Albert Einstein

I honor my courage.

“Courage is the most important of all the virtues because without courage, you can't practice any other virtue consistently.”
Maya Angelou

I am grateful for my emerging wisdom.

“Kindness is more important than wisdom, and the recognition of this is the beginning of wisdom.”

Theodore Rubin

100 trillion connections

“Join together 100 billion neurons — with 100 trillion connections — and you have yourself a human brain, capable of much, much more.”

WOW!
