Almost all of us wish we could be calmer; it is one of the distinctive longings of the modern age. Throughout history, people have sought adventure and excitement, but a new priority for many of us is a desire to be more tranquil. This is a book designed to support us in our endeavors to remain calm against all the adversities life throws at us. A calm state of mind is not a divine gift; we can alter our responses to everyday things and educate ourselves in the art of remaining calm, not through slow breathing or special teas, but through thinking. This is a book that explores the causes of our greatest stresses and anxieties and gives us a succession of highly persuasive, beautiful, and sometimes dryly comic arguments with which to defend ourselves against panic and confusion. Part of a new essential paperback series from The School of Life, covering a range of emotional lessons needed in order to lead fulfilled and happy lives.
