Meditations for Mortals Study Group - Online

Join us for a Study Group to explore "Meditations for Mortals" by Oliver Burkeman.

Can you give four weeks to embrace your limitations and make time for what counts?

The cover sleeve suggests that you can read this as a four-week "retreat of the mind" - which is what we intend to do. It suggests v"Meditations for Mortals will be a source for solace and inspiration, and an aid to a saner, freer and more enchantment-filled life. In anxiety-inducing times, it is rich in truths we have never needed more".

The plan is to read the book as it's set put - over the course of 4 weeks. The idea is to put time aside everyday, to read one chapter (most are 4-6 pages long). We will meet once a week to discuss what we've read.

The Study Group will meet weekly for 5 sessions, starting on Tuesday 27th May 7-8pm. Our first session will be shorter, as we'll have read the introduction and will have a chat about how we'll approach the rhythm of daily reading. Sessions will take place on zoom.

The study group costs £40 to join, we also have a couple of reduced rates for anyone who otherwise could not afford to come along. Please pick the rate that best matches your circumstances. Click here to book in.

Susie will be your leader for this study group. Any questions, please email her: susie@pauseandbreathe.co.uk
