What is The School of Life?
The School of Life is a global organisation devoted to teaching you how to lead a more fulfilled life. We offer insights in the key ingredients of emotional well-being: how to form good relationships, identify a satisfying career, minimise anxiety, acquire confidence and connect properly with friends.
All our services are available around the world in digital format - via books, films, articles, online classes and online psychotherapy.
Introducing Nature and Me
Children are often told that experiencing nature is good for them, but are rarely told exactly why.
Nature & Me is a guide to the joys and therapeutic benefits of the natural world, showing how it can help us with our lives (especially when we’re feeling bored, sad or lonely) and grow up to be more calm, curious and content.
New Releases
We produce an ever-expanding range of books and tools to support every aspect of life. Our latest books focus on finding calm and learning the life lessons we’ve neglected.

Our ‘self’ is never fixed: each of us carries on growing and changing over a lifetime. Our Self-Knowledge range can help you unlock the best version of yourself.
For Calm
In an increasingly chaotic world, few virtues are more elusive - or more vital - than calm. We have a selection of books and tools that can teach you the elements of serenity.
Resources for Parents and Teachers
No stage in our development is more important than childhood. Our childhood sets the course of our adult lives. That's why we’ve created some free learning packs to support childhood learning and development at home.
