Bristol Folk House, Tuesday 22nd July: 7.30pm-8.45pm

In The Science of Happiness, Bruce drew on decades neuroscience and developmental psychology research to show that the key to happiness is not self-care but connection. Bruce and Andrew will be discussing these insights along with many others as they explore the roots of wellbeing in today’s world. It is a conversation that promises lessons for Bristolians of all ages plus practical actions that we can all take to promote collective wellbeing in our local community.

Doors at Bristol Folk House (40a Park St, Bristol BS1 5JG) will open at 7pm. Heron Books will kindly be joining us with a book stall.
