What we’re about
Welcome to The Philosophical Wellness Club!
We are a group that enjoys living well and contemplating the big questions of life. Events and offerings that take insights and practices from philosophy, cognitive science, and the wellness sphere in order to have a positive effect on our lives. We tackle emotional health, personal goals, existential angst and more.
In terms of philosophy the emphasis is on the more applied or practical. The often neglected questions such as: What is the good life? What are the things that make life meaningful? Questions about the self, time, change, the nature of reality and human cognition.
As over-analytical types, we're also drawn to practices that explore the nature of thought and different states of consciousness. Mindfulness definitely comes into the picture here. This group also explores a novel mind-body technique called Insight Walking. A contemplative practice we use to go deep on major life topics. These practices both in turn have intriguing philosophical implications and so the interplay of philosophy and wellness!
Existence is the most intriguing thing I can imagine. However, this world pulls us in all kinds of directions and robs us of our time and attention. Let’s work together to live more deeply and experience how profound and meaningful life can be.
If you think this group might be for you please come out. We’d love to meet you. And no matter what, you are ensured to have fun, and meet some amazing people.
Many thanks,
-Julie

Believe it or not, the buzz and energy of a bustling place can enhance our focus and ability to get into that special state of mind important to wellbeing. Multi-sensory objects of attention guide us through the meditation journey. Whether you're still learning or wanting to create a stronger habit, we will focus on our breath, the movement of our body, the sights, the sounds, the beautiful scents in our environment.
