Description

Our lives can feel defined by the struggle with overwhelm, endless decisions and striving to be productive.

Wouldn’t it be good to stop doing all that? What if we could find freedom – and get more of the important things done – by embracing our limitations, and by letting things happen instead of forcing them?Meditations for Mortals begins with the reality in which we actually find ourselves, not with fantasies of an ideal existence. Reflecting on ideas from philosophy, religion, psychology and self-help, it offers us a powerful and practical new way to do what counts: a guiding outlook Oliver Burkeman calls ‘imperfectionism’. This book is a profound and liberating crash course in living more fully.

It overturns much familiar advice and opens a gateway to a saner, freer and more enchantment-filled life.
