Synopsis

Few life skills are as neglected, yet as important, as the ability to remain calm.

Our very worst decisions and interactions are almost invariably the result of a loss of calm - and a descent into anxiety and agitation. Surprisingly, but very fortunately, our power to remain calm can be rehearsed and improved. We don't have to remain where we are now: our responses to everyday challenges can dramatically alter. We can educate ourselves in the art of remaining calm not through slow breathing or special teas but through thinking.

This is a book that patiently unpacks the causes of our greatest stresses and gives us a succession of highly persuasive, beautiful and sometimes dryly comic arguments with which to defend ourselves against panic and fury.

What people are saying about Calm:

"Excellent read! This book is very informative providing advice from the School of Life and great historical thinkers and religions alike." Michael

"Very helpful and wise insights that bring a little peace of mind."
