How do traumatic events in early life affect you in later years? And how can you best heal from them?

Why, without solid scientific justification, has the number of mental disorders risen from 106 in the 1960s, to around 370 today? Who benefits from this?

What does the latest psychological research reveal about the link between meaning in life and emotional wellbeing?

These are just some of the topics the speakers will discuss at The Weekend University this month.

In this series of talks, you’ll learn:

• The Psychology of Trauma - Do you still need your psychiatric diagnosis? Or should we be asking not: “What is wrong with you?” but rather: “What has happened to you?”

• Big Pharma & Psychiatry: Exposed - why psychiatry is such big business, and why, on the whole, it may be doing more harm than good

• Meaning & Mental Health - the real causes of the largest mental health crisis in human history, and how meaning-centred approaches may offer a solution.
You’ll learn how these insights can benefit your own life, but also your ability to help others, too.
