| Abstract | How do we navigate fear of catastrophic change while also fostering a sense of well-being in our everyday? This question provides the lived context for the story this article tells about teaching a course on imagining well-being during the COVID-19 pandemic. Taking an integrative interdisciplinary approach that employs methods of literary analysis in conversation with phenomenological philosophy gives students insights into the necessary relationship between well-being and catastrophe that modernist discourses bypass. This approach thus underscores the limitations in disciplinary attempts to find objective measures to quantify well-being and, implicitly, to prescribe (physiological, psychological, political, or economic) methods for attaining it. Further, attending to the lived experiences of students as they encounter this integrative approach can give us insights into valuable resources that are not just material but existential. In the face of direct and immediate threats to our physical, psychological, and emotional well-being, diving into a shared exploration of loss, fear, and displacement invites students and faculty to show up increasingly in our full humanness, replete with contradiction, confusion, and ambiguity. This stance of not-knowing, as opposed to claiming to know and hence prescribing, may lend itself to new cognitive, emotional, and imaginative avenues for self-realization and connection, which are means to the experience of well-being.
