Over dit evenement

Interactive workshop

We’re taught how to perform; how to plan, persevere and collaborate.

We’re rarely taught how to live with ourselves: how to meet doubt, restlessness and expectation; how to handle emotions that appear out of nowhere and thoughts that barge in as if they were facts.

In a world dense with stimuli, pressure and choice, it becomes crucial to grow a sense of direction from within. Not by pushing harder, but by pausing to notice what is happening inside us.

What truly makes us happy?And what, exactly, do we mean by happiness?

In this workshop, we take time for these questions. We draw on neuroscience and positive psychology and explore how to develop a kinder, healthier relationship with yourself, guided by curiosity and an open mind.

What we’ll cover

  • What the latest research says about happiness and fulfilment
  • How the unconscious has shaped who we’ve become
  • How emotions and thoughts influence our experience of happiness
  • What emotions are and how to cultivate emotional awareness
  • What thoughts are and how to interrupt unhelpful patterns
  • Practical tools for meeting stress and the difficult feelings that can arise from social isolation
  • Evidence-based methods you can use on your own so new insights keep taking root and developing

All ideas are put straight into practice through interactive exercises, so you can approach these questions from a fresh, more generous perspective.

Who is it for?Anyone curious about themselves—anyone who’d like to zoom out for a moment and look beneath the surface of daily life. No prior knowledge required.
