Oft werden wir im Alltagsstress von unseren Gefühlen übermannt und wissen nicht, wie wir mit unseren Ängsten umgehen oder unsere innere Stärke wiederfinden können. Hier kann die stoische Philosophie eine große Hilfe sein. Schon in der Antike war sie eine der erfolgreichsten lebensphilosophischen Schulen.

À la troisième personne, lointaine et pourtant si intime, l'auteur narre sa singulière quête de liberté en plein chaos. Chemin faisant, Alexandre Jollien nous livre un carnet de route, un véritable traité de déculpabilisation.

Is stress a deadly disease on the rise in modern society? Can mind-body practices from the East help us become well?

From psychoanalysis to the placebo effect to meditation, this vibrant cultural history describes mind-body healing as rooted in a patchwork of stories, allowing us to make new sense of our suffering and to rationalize new treatments and lifestyles.
