Philosophy in Focus is an opportunity to experience ‘flow’ in action. We’ll do this through a series of simple, gentle activities designed to settle the mind and refine the attention. Examples include drawing, movement and sounding and listening. Come and see for yourself the effect of these simple yet liberating exercises. There will be about an hour for practice and about 30 minutes for reflection and discussion.
