The School of Life
is a new cultural enterprise based in central London offering
intelligent instruction on how to lead a fulfilled life.

We offer evening and weekend courses, holidays to unexpected locations,
stigma-free psychotherapy, secular sermons, conversation meals, a
floating faculty of experts and a new kind of literary consultancy
service called bibliotherapy.

Our faculty is made up of some of the brightest thinkers and artists at
work today. They include Alain de Botton, Geoff Dyer, Susan Elderkin,
Tom Hodgkinson, Brett Khar, Robert Macfarlane and Martin Parr.

We are based in a small but spectacular shop on Marchmont Street, a
thriving and bohemian part of central London. We've organised the shop
as a chemist for the mind, a place where you can try out a variety of
cultural solutions to everyday ailments. We sell books, artworks,
courses, holidays and therapeutic services.
