We all live with a degree of anxiety — but we rarely pause to understand where it truly comes from.

At this Reflect & Connect evening, we’ll slow down and gently examine the hidden roots of modern anxiety: perfectionism, pressure to succeed, fear of the future, and the deep longing for control.

Drawing from powerful insights in The School of Life’s Anxiety book, we’ll explore:

  • Why our anxious minds expect too much from life — and ourselves
  • How trauma distorts our perception of the present
  • What “basic trust” is, and how its absence shapes our anxiety
  • Why modern values like individualism and meritocracy intensify our inner stress

No therapy, no forced sharing — just meaningful prompts, quiet writing, and optional discussion.

A warm drink included. Come solo, bring a friend, or just observe.
