Testimonials

Over the past few years I have been part of the School of Philosophy and one of the great lessons has been looking at oneself rather than others. It says a lot about us when we judge another.

We are all living life through our own layers and conditioning. We cannot see other people’s layers so lets not be … Read more
“I worry less, am more focused, alert and empathetic…I like to think!”
“I go to the Philosophy School because it has helped me think about things I had not given much thought to before. It has helped me to think in a different way and to find new perspective on life, to focus on working out what is important, and to rediscover some of the joy in life which was there all the time.

“Studying philosophy has kept life fresh and interesting. I am able to be objective and less limited by past conditioning. It has given me courage to feel deeply without being afraid of becoming lost. I have an inner steadiness and calm which endures through any storm. I have learnt the freedom of complete honesty and the value of good company. I am never alone.” “Studying Practical Philosophy has not only brought depth, understanding and meaning to my life, but showed me how to experie… Read more
