How to Deal with Solitude
with Michelle Castro

Solitude is often misunderstood as emptiness or isolation, yet it can also become a powerful space for self-knowledge, inner strength, and growth. Learning how to relate to solitude in a healthy way is an essential skill in a fast-paced and highly connected world.

In this talk, Michelle Castro explores the different faces of solitude—both the challenges it presents and the opportunities it offers. Through philosophical reflections and practical insights, participants are invited to reflect on their relationship with being alone, to distinguish solitude from loneliness, and to discover how moments of silence and introspection can become sources of balance and meaning.

This talk is an invitation to transform solitude from something to be avoided into a conscious choice that nurtures inner stability, emotional maturity, and a deeper connection with oneself.

The Noble Eightfold Path: Philosophy for Everyday Life
With Isabella Camarotti

The Noble Eightfold Path is one of the core teachings of Buddhism and offers a practical framework for living with clarity, balance, and purpose. Far from being a distant or purely spiritual doctrine, it presents concrete principles that can be applied to daily life—at work, in relationships, and in personal decision-making.

In this talk, participants will explore the meaning of the Eightfold Path and how its elements—such as right understanding, right intention, right action, and right mindfulness—work together as a unified path of ethical living, mental discipline, and wisdom. Through philosophical reflection and real-life examples, the talk shows how these teachings remain deeply relevant in the modern world.

This is an invitation to discover philosophy as a way of life: a practical guide for cultivating inner harmony, reducing suffering, and living more consciously in everyday situations.
