Online Courses – The House of Wisdom

Philosophizing with children

Even if children don't yet possess the language and conceptual tools to follow history of philosophy courses, they are wonderful budding philosophers! As Aristotle reminds us, philosophy begins with wonder, which leads to questioning, and then reasoning. Because they constantly wonder and question, children easily learn—through philosophical workshops—to argue and develop thinking skills that will allow them to cultivate personal thought, critical thinking, and also psychosocial skills such as empathy, listening, and tolerance. Drawing on his ten years of experience working with children and teenagers, Frédéric Lenoir will explain the methods for practicing philosophy with children.

Live webinar lasting  1 hour 30 minutes. Replay available for two weeks.

Conference

Frédéric Lenoir

Finding inner direction in a saturated external world.

Wisdom is not an intellectual luxury. It is a skill. A way of inhabiting one's life with more awareness, freedom, and joy.

How can we live more justly, more freely, more serenely in a world that is accelerating? 

How can we access a deeper and more lasting happiness, without escaping reality or withdrawing from everyday life?

In this lecture, Frédéric Lenoir offers an inspiring journey through the great philosophical and spiritual traditions (from Spinoza to Buddhism, from Greek wisdom to Chinese philosophies). He brings to light five simple yet powerful universal keys to wisdom , directly applicable for moving forward with greater clarity and inner stability.

Conference

"The 5 Pillars of Wisdom"

Frédéric Lenoir suggests we pause to reflect on what is essential. Through his book and this lecture, he invites us to rediscover philosophy not as an academic subject, but as a path to inner transformation.

Drawing on universal wisdom, from Buddhist serenity to Spinoza's power of joy, from Taoist letting go to Nietzsche's vital impulse, he guides us through the five foundations of a fulfilled life:

Self-knowledge : To free ourselves from our conditioning.

Love : To open oneself to the other without losing oneself in it.

Ethics : To act justly in a complex world.

Presence : To fully inhabit the moment.

Acceptance : To consent to reality without giving up one's freedom.

A way of life for the 21st century.

Monday, June 1, 2026 at 7 p.m. – Nantes 

Following the conference, a time for discussion and signing will be organized to extend the meeting.
