Description
Most of us long to be a little calmer: too many of our days are lost to agitation and worry, stress and discord. Yet we know that we are at our best when we can manage not to panic and take challenges in our stride.
Fortunately, a calm state of mind is not a divine gift. Even those of us starting from a more agitated position can systematically understand and lay claim to it. Too many books on this subject simply explain what it would be like to be calm. The Calm Workbook is a workbook that takes us through the practical steps required to actually become calm.
It is filled with exercises and prompts that deliver the self-understanding and self-compassion on which true serenity depends. Furthermore, the book invites us to build calming routines into our daily lives so that what we learn can stick with us and change us for the long term.
Based on years of The School of Life's work in the area of anxiety and calm, this is a landmark workbook guaranteed to bring about the calmer state of mind we long for and deserve.

The School of Life: Relationships
Few things promise us greater happiness than our relationships, yet few things more reliably deliver misery and frustration. Our error is to suppose that we are born knowing how to love and that managing a relationship might therefore be intuitive and easy. The School of Life: Relationships starts from a different premise: that love is a skill to be learnt,...Paperback$2700Elsewhere:$2999Unit price /UnavailableIn StockShips tomorrow -

Big Ideas for Curious Minds
Children are, in many ways, born philosophers. Without prompting, they ask some of the largest questions: about time, mortality, happiness, and the meaning of it all.

Big Ideas for Curious Minds is a book designed to harness children's spontaneous philosophical instinct and to...Hardback$4999Unit price /UnavailableIn StockShips tomorrow -
