We have put together the best of all that has been thought over the last two thousand years to create a wonderful Christmas present.

We can send the bundle to a friend or relative on any day of your choosing – just select the “gift” option when making your purchase.

Here is what you get:

• An Introduction to Ancient Philosophy with Mark Vernon: our most popular course, Dr Vernon’s set of six classes take you through the key thinkers and schools of ancient Greece, from Socrates, Plato and Aristotle to the Stoics, Epicureans and Cynics. There are over two hours of video here, plus useful notes and access to the online forums. RRP £35

• How to be Idle with Tom Hodgkinson: from the founder of the Idler, and based on his best-selling book of the same title, this course looks at the meaning of the good life, how to become self-sufficient and thrifty, the meaning of education and more practical themes. Again there are six half hour classes plus notes, further reading and access to the forums. RRP £35

• Beyond Mindfulness with Tim Lott: across six videos, novelist Tim Lott outlines the basic tenets of Eastern philosophy, using the fascinating character of philosopher Alan Watts as a key to these enduring and useful ideas. RRP £35

• An Introduction to Modern Philosophy with Mark Vernon: an engaging six part course which finally unravels all those confusing “isms” that people bandy about: materialism, utilitarianism, existentialism, post-modernism. Dr Vernon presents the ideas in a satisfying chronological survey of the history of philosophy from Descartes in the 16th century to the present day. RRP £35

So if you’ve ever wanted to acquaint yourself with the key philosophies of the Eastern and Western worlds, while having fun, finding freedom and improving your life at the same time, then take a look at our bundle.

Need we add that our philosophy bundle makes a great present for anyone in your life who is at a turning point. For the price of an hour with the shrink, we give you the condensed wisdom of the East and West both ancient modern.
