Pub Psychology is a way of taking charge of your life through weekly drop-in workshops on various aspects of personal development. Join us to explore, discuss and discover things about yourself, achievement, relationships and more in a friendly and informal atmosphere. With its many exercises, reflective questions and some insightful theory, Pub Psychology will help you create your own practical toolkit for life.
What kind of topics do we cover?
We have over sixty thought-provoking and stimulating topics, from self-awareness and personal change through to achievement and intimate relationships. The topics we'll be covering in June are:
- Excitement (a Cinderella of psychology)
- Moods (a cruise or a roller-coaster of the mind?)
- Learning and remembering (don't lose your keys again!)
- Creativity (a real gift - and you have it!)
- Practical reasoning (crooked thinking, straight thinking - what is the difference?)
How are the topics organised?
The topics are structured around the four main categories of human life:
- The world of I: The art of self-mastery
- Walking on the bright side: The art of living
- Getting things done: The art of success
- Me and others: The art of relationships
What is the basis of this concept?
Pub Psychology is based on the ideas from the Personal Synthesis model, Positive Psychology and Group Coaching.
What’s in it for me?
Ever wondered how to interpret a dream, snap out of a bad mood, set a goal and actually achieve it, enjoy your life to the full or make you relationships work? There are many things that you can figure out on your own, through books and magazines, or by talking to family and friends. Yet, the best way by far is to share your journey with others who do not have a preconceived idea about you, which is exactly what Pub Psychology offers.
So how does it work?
Starting from 21st of April 2009 we will hold our weekly sessions from 6.30 - 8pm every Tuesday night. You do not need to attend every week, but can drop into sessions that interest you most. Check timetable and prices for the weekly timetable of topics.
What if I don’t feel like disclosing myself in front of strangers?
You don’t have to! This is not group therapy, so you do not even have to talk unless you choose to.
Who runs Pub Psychology?
Pub Psychology sessions have been created and are run by Dr Nash Popovic, an author, senior lecturer at the University of East London and counsellor with many years of experience.
Is it really held in a pub?
Yes, because we believe that whilst some structure is necessary, a less formal setting is conducive to self-exploration and social interaction. No need to worry about the noise as the sessions are held in a separate room on the left from the bar (if we are not there check the small room upstairs!). The address is Antelope pub, 22-24 Eaton Terrace, London, SW1W 8EZ (near Sloane Square tube station).
How much does it cost?
Each 1.5 hour weekly session costs only £10 per week. Concessions pay just £5 per session! Please note that you would need to buy your own drink (if you wish so)!
If you have any further questions or would like to let us know that you are coming please send us an email.
