Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Nowadays, almost all of us wish we could be calmer; it is one of the distinctive longings of the modern age. Across history, people have sought adventure and excitement, however, a new priority for many of us is a desire to be more tranquil. This is a book designed to support us in our endeavours 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.

The School of Life: Calm explores the causes of our greatest stresses and anxieties and provides us with a succession of highly persuasive, beautiful, and sometimes dryly comic arguments with which to defend ourselves against panic and confusion.
