We spend our lives chasing "more" without ever asking what "enough" actually means.
This workshop unpacks how materialism slowlyever rewires our idea of a good life. It offers a practical way to define enoughness for yourself, so you leave with a framework for navigating the tension between ambition and contentment with what you have.
Omar DaCosta-Shahid is a writer, entrepreneur and public speaker working at the intersection of spirituality, ethics and business.
🏆 Forbes 30 Under 30 - Media & Marketing (2021)
🏆 Recognised among the Top 10 British Muslims in Media & Entertainment (2022)
📚 He has studied classical works on spirituality, ethics and trade, including parts of Imam al-Ghazali's Ihya, and completed a two-year part-time group study in Islamic finance with Mufti Faraz Adam.
What this workshop offers:
🔹 Understanding the concept of enoughness
🔹 The roots of the scarcity mindset, through the lens of the Qur'an
🔹 How to respond to the modern idea of "progress"

Testimonials
The best aspect of ISIP, which I have seen, is the genuine, kind,
and unconditional support of each member. In fact, there is no shortage of support at any time. This has been an incredibly enriching experience!

Masha'Allah ISIP is a fantastic resource and a must see for anyone interested in Islamic Psychology. The topics, the sessions with renowned scholars and resources shared are very relevant and several times introduced me to the depth of Islamic Psychology work that is taking place worldwide. It helps break away from the perception that Islamic Psychology is simply an emerging field. To add, it is a community like no other!
Omar-Canada
I love how the events are conducted in a very peaceful manner, they are actually very resourceful. The Q and As are great! The Whatsapp groups are regulated very respectfully which is quite a task when we have such a daunting number of people in it. Overall the ambience that the sessions and discussions have is beautiful to witness and makes me hopeful of a great future and scope that IP has worldwide.
