This two-part series will introduce you to some of the key ideas of positive psychology and mental fitness, so you can enjoy a 'fresh start' this spring.

Many of us like to spring clean our homes as the days grow longer and summer beckons; this workshop will help you declutter your mind! 

We will

• look at the philosophical distinction between 'freedom from' and 'freedom to'  to provide a framework for personal growth 
  
  
•  look at practical tools for taming the emotional 'saboteurs' that sometimes hijack us despite our best intentions
  

A quick online quiz will help you identify your top saboteur tendencies.

Sessions will be recorded.
