What we’re about
"Just imagine if even a walk round the block could leave you feeling more inspired and in love with life?" - David Pearl, Founder Street Wisdom
Street Wisdom is an everyday creative practice you use as you walk. A smart fusion of mindfulness, neuroscience and wellness, it unlocks our minds and unblocks our creativity with every step.
A Street Wisdom Walkshop (a 2-hour street-based workshop) consists of four parts - each designed to sharpen your senses and foster opportunities to learn from the wisdom of the streets.
You will participate in three "tune up's", designed to tune up your senses, before going on a Quest for answers given to you from the streets. Every street is full of inspiration and whatever your question we can find answers everywhere.
The practice is simple to learn and hard to forget.

About Street Widsom
Street Wisdom is the brainchild of David Pearl, an innovator in business, the arts and social change. Having spent years exploring how our urban environment can deliver fresh insight, in 2013 he set up the first Street Wisdom event.
Hear David talk about Street Wisdom at TEDx.
Since then, the movement has grown to 73 countries and counting, led by volunteers sharing the power of Street Wisdom free of charge through communities across the globe.
* All Street Wisdom events are run by volunteers and participants take part at their own risk.

Street Wisdom is an everyday creative practice you use as you walk. A smart fusion of mindfulness, neuroscience and wellness, it unlocks our minds and unblocks our creativity with every step. The perfect complement to static meditation, Street Wisdom takes us on a physical journey that not only calms and clears the mind, but opens up the subconscious to new ideas. Not to mention the health benefits of walking outdoors. All without having to travel to exotic climes or retreats. Suddenly, every street is full of inspiration. And whatever our questions, we are finding answers are everywhere.
Street Wisdom Walkshops are always free for participants however we encourage you to donate to Street Wisdom if you can.
