The Science of Fear

Through the centuries, the end of October has been known as the season when all the spookiest stories and creatures come to life and enter the human world. They have different forms and looks, but they all come to scare us and make us face our deepest fears. But why do we deliberately seek out the scariest of thrills during Halloween? And can fear actually be good for us?

Together with Dr. Thomas Cardwell, we will dive into human psychology and explore the role of fear in our lives. During our session, you will learn about the evolution of fear, how it helps us to survive, and how to navigate fear during times of instability and strife.

📍 The deadline to register is October 25th by 12:00 PM.
