The Full Schedule for the Well Festival

Date:


2:25 p.m.

It’s easy to see exercise as a chore. But Robin Arzón, an endurance athlete and head instructor for Peloton, and Kelly McGonigal, a health psychologist at Stanford University, have found it to be a source of joy. They will discuss revelatory fitness with Danielle Friedman, a frequent Well contributor who wrote a book about women’s exercise culture.

3:05 p.m.

Dan Harris, a former journalist, began meditating after having a panic attack on national television — and then wrote a book called “10% Happier.” Sara Bareilles is a singer, songwriter and Broadway star who opened up a few years ago about her experiences with depression and anxiety. Along with Dacher Keltner, making a second appearance at the festival, they will discuss how they cope.

3:35 p.m.

Jameela Jamil, best known for playing the name-dropping socialite Tahani Al-Jamil in “The Good Place,” has been outspoken about her struggles with eating disorders and body image. Lisa Miller, a Well reporter, will interview her about her advocacy for body positivity, as well as how she found peace with her body and how others might do the same.

4:05 p.m.

Dr. Peter Attia is a podcast host who promotes an aggressive regimen to prevent chronic disease and maximize health late in life. Kate Lowenstein, the deputy editor of Well, will interview him about his fitness, nutrition and sleep routines, and whether an average person can emulate a program for which his practice charges tens of thousands of dollars a year.

4:35 p.m.

Orna Guralnik is a clinical psychologist and psychoanalyst who counsels real couples in the docu-series “Couples Therapy,” a new season of which airs on May 22. In a conversation with Caitlin Roper, the executive producer for scripted film and television at The Times, she will speak about the stories we tell in love and relationships.

5 p.m.

Dwyane Wade, an N.B.A. Hall of Fame shooting guard, will talk to Marc Lacey, a managing editor at The Times, about masculinity, vulnerability, fatherhood, and how and why he has become healthier since leaving basketball.
