An opportunity to consider philosophical ideas and questions of real relevance to all our lives. The kind of conversations we'd like to have but, in a busy world, seldom do.
The emphasis is on learning from the most powerful of teachers: our own experience. The only requirements are an interest in the subject and an open mind.
The course is offered at various locations in the United States. Starting dates and evenings vary according to location. |

The School of Practical Philosophy aims to offer students the inspiration and systematic guidance needed to enjoy fuller, richer and more productive lives; to realize their true potential; to evolve the spiritual aspect of their beings; and to serve society to the best of their abilities.
The School was established in 1964 in New York City, is chartered by the Regents of the University of the State of New York, and has branches in various locations in the United States. It is also affiliated with a network of schools throughout the world, all of which followed the lead of a school started by Leon MacLaren in London in 1937. |

The pressing demands of earning a living and other commitments can make it seem as if there’s no space for anything or anyone else.
Practical Philosophy shows that, despite appearances, space and freedom are always available, and can be found. Then the view enlarges, both of ourselves and of the world in which we live.
By experiencing this bigger picture, things change. Life becomes more fulfilling and happier. Its challenges remain, but they are seen and dealt with in a clearer, more effective way.
