Ancient wisdom for modern life. This is a liberating and comforting guide to happiness, from the philosopher and founder of @philosophyminis

Drawing on time-tested, ancient Greek wisdom, The Art of Enough offers a new way of thinking about the good life – one that feels lived-in rather than lofty, and sustainable in an age of anxiety and burnout.

Speaking directly to those disillusioned with the culture of relentless hustle, this is a philosophy that is practical as well as profoundly possible.

Thomson’s Epicureanism doesn’t offer us more rainbows to chase or hurdles to jump but gentle, abiding guidance on how to recognise that we already have everything we need to be happy.
