Promoting Wellbeing: Concepts and Choices with John Sheff

Two presentations with John Sheff on the 20th & 27th October:

Presentation One:  October 20th 2026

“Pain is Inevitable – Suffering is Optional”

Whether they are big or small, painful events are unavoidable: relationship breakups, job losses, health crises or the death of a loved one. Suffering comes from our mental reaction to these events – our resistance, judgment, wishing things were different. Using Buddhist and Stoic Philosophy principles, this presentation explores how to choose less suffering, how you can shift your mindset.

Presentation Two: October 27th 2026

“Living a Purpose Driven Life”

Happiness or wellness is strongly linked to living a purpose driven life. A purpose driven life is an intention that you form, an action plan: through self-reflection, identifying what you value, where is your energy;  and experimentation: taking small steps to live this new way of thinking. Using philosophical (Frankl), business (Sinek, Burnet) and religious thinking, this presentation will help you start on the path of building a purpose driven life.

This program will be presented in person and via Zoom. Only one registration is required for both presentations.  Click here to register.
