World Wide Wander and Street Wisdom

Join me for an in-person Street Wisdom Walkshop happening as part of this year's big annual day of wonder and wandering, the World Wide Wander 2025. This Walkshop is one of many other in-person Walkshops occurring all around the world that day. To book click here.

This event is taking place at the same time as the Climate Festival.

Meet at the Meadows Compass, Edinburgh

What is Street Wisdom?

​Street Wisdom is an everyday creative practice you use as you walk. A smart fusion of mindfulness, neuroscience, imagination and wellness, it unlocks minds and unblocks creativity with every step. The perfect complement to static meditation, Street Wisdom takes you on a physical journey that not only calms and clears the mind, but opens up the subconscious to new ideas.

Later in the walk we will gather in the Peace Garden at the Meadows, Edinburgh

What can I expect from an in-person Walkshop?

​You'll meet me at the Meadows Compass. I will introduce you to the Walkshop and to the ideas behind Street Wisdom before we set off. The Walkshop is in three parts. First, there's the Tune Up, where you will go on three micro-walks by yourself using my guidance. Then there's the Quest, which is the heart of the experience, a longer walk by yourself, and an opportunity to ask the streets a question and get some fresh answers. After you've done that, you'll come back and we will Share what we have learned with each other. It's a simple, wonderful, potentially transformative experience!

This walk is free

Street Wisdom is a non-profit on a mission to bring inspiration to every street on planet earth. Street Wisdom is founded by the arts and business innovator, David Pearl, after he noticed his work with clients always got to newer, deeper places when he walked outdoors with them. David's mission has always been to make and keep Street Wisdom free for everyone.

Stay streetwise

​The Street Wisdom Walkshop has a risk disclaimer (see the booking page) which you agree to by making a booking. This is to remind you that the wonderful big outdoor world - as well as potentially containing fresh new insights, ideas and intention - contains all sorts of things including risks, and so it's important to be vigilant. We think Street Wisdom is about heightening your awareness, the kind that means you're becoming more alert, rather than zoning out. So it is important that you have fun, find your Street Wisdom, and also be streetwise.
