In-person events: what to expect

A live event at a venue, with talks or workshops from spiritual guides and time to meet other people.

What to expect

Check the venue, date, language and what is included, and whether the venue suits any access needs you have, before you book.

What the research says

Spiritual guidance has not been studied as a way to help health needs: see 1:1 spiritual guidance: what the research says. Some practices offered in this format, such as mindfulness or yoga, have their own research pages.

Sessions on Sissoo complement medical care and never replace it. Please don’t stop or change any treatment without talking to your doctor.
