Engage or Recharge…

These weekly sessions (facilitated by Peter Whitfield) let you get together with like minded people, who want to engage or recharge their interest in the practical benefits of studying and practising philosophy. 

They offer a practical means to discover fully who we are, understand how to relate to the world we live in and see what gets in the way of being happy, peaceful and free.

Attendees are invited to see life as a place to test the words of the wise through practical and mindful exercises.
