A charming guide to enhancing personal contentment and well-being in everyday life. From ancient civilisations to the modern day, philosophers, writers, artists, religious leaders, and health practitioners have debated the questions: 'What is happiness?' and 'How can we achieve it?' In this book, we take a meandering journey through the rich philosophical landscape of contentment, by way of Norse mythology, Persian symbolism, Scandinavian lifestyle, Buddhist teachings, and Aristotle’s theories.(** This book may contain a sharpie mark on the top or bottom edge and may show mild signs of shelfwear. **.)
