Meditations for Mortals

Banish burnout. Choose calm. Embrace life. One day at a time. ''Full of wisdom and comfort ... a really important book'' CHRIS VAN TULLEKEN, author of Ultra-Processed People Meditations for Mortals takes us on a liberating journey towards a more meaningful life - one that begins not with fantasies of the ideal existence, but with the reality in which we actually find ourselves. Designed as a four-week ''retreat of the mind'', it offers daily wisdom, solace and inspiration to aid a saner, freer, and more enchantment-filled way of living. Addressing fundamental questions about how to live, Oliver Burkeman proposes a powerful new guiding philosophy of ''imperfectionism''. How can we embrace our limitations? Or make good decisions when there''s always too much to do? What if being truly productive means letting things happen, not making them happen? Reflecting on philosophy, literature, psychology, religion and self-help, Burkeman explores practical tools and shifts in perspective. The result is a profound yet entertaining crash course in living more fully.

Stop trying to sort your life out. Start living.

'Full of wisdom and comfort' CHRIS VAN TULLEKEN

'A practical path toward personal transformation... A must-read' CAL NEWPORT

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.
