Reasons Not to Worry
We're all searching for answers to the biggest questions. How to be good? How to find calm? How to properly grieve? How to beat FOMO? How to work out what truly matters? Well, good news is that the wisest minds in history asked the exact same questions - and they found answers. The ancient philosophy of Stoicism
Brigid Delaney takes us back to a time not unlike our own: one full of pandemonium, war, plagues, pestilence, treachery, corruption, anxiety, overindulgence and, even then, the fear of a climate apocalypse. By learning and living the teachings of three ancient guides, Brigid shows us how we can apply these lessons to our modern lives in a way that allows us to regain a sense of agency, tranquillity and resilience.
