The School of Life Shop
We offer an ever-expanding range of tools to help you work on your self-development in your own time – including books, conversation cards, games and stationery.
Crafted in-house by our experts, each of our products is beautifully designed and eminently practical: teaching you vital emotional skills and helping you reach a new perspective on your problems. Find the perfect gift for someone you know – or just for yourself.
Snakes & Ladders
The School of Life has taken Snakes and Ladders and turned it into a great game about emotional life. The game is designed to help you recognise the ups and downs of the journey to emotional maturity. As we play, we're entertained, amusingly educated and subtly invited to continue to try to grow up.

The School of Life Events
We run a full curriculum of classes throughout the year designed to help you find fulfilment in key areas of your life. Taught by members of our faculty, they’re an opportunity to gain unique insights, learn practical skills, and meet and share with others with experiences just like yours.
We also host regular conversations and special events with leading writers, psychotherapists, and emotional experts offering unique perspectives on life’s largest questions, as well as our bi-annual Conference, where like-minded strangers from all over the world gather for a three-day symposium on the latest and best of our wisdom.
The School of Life Classroom
Located below our shop on Marchmont Street in Bloomsbury, our classroom hosts hundreds of events and workshops throughout the year. Classes cover such topics as making relationships work, overcoming anger and anxiety, career guidance, finding meaning and purpose in life and using culture as a therapeutic tool.
Know Yourself in a Day
Know Yourself in a Day is a one-day festival of ideas devoted to helping you get to know that most elusive of subjects: your true self. Join us and hundreds of others just like yourself for a day of lectures, games, discussion and self-exploration.
