A group of members belonging to the group.

This is a discussion group in which all aspects of human behaviour are explored and the name reflects a wider view of psychology and the topics we would like to learn more about. For example, why do people do what they do? Why are we all different and yet all so similar?

Topics include aspects of depression, psychology of politics, marketing persuasion, testing, learning theory, hypnotism, personality types, counselling, pilgrimages and retreats, mindfulness, fortune telling, and loneliness.  

The month's topic is announced in advance and each session will begin with a short presentation or introduction to the discussion followed a group exploration of the topic. The topic, along with any notes, can be circulated to the group in advance, giving anyone wanting to get more involved the chance to become familiar with the topic prior to the discussion. 

Our three words describing our group: accessible - thought-provoking - stimulating
