The demands placed upon us are increasing - and for some, it is becoming an uncomfortable experience.

A companion for those in need, this book highlights the incredible - mostly unseen - truth of existence and conveys stunning wisdom: it enables the reader to better manage Stress and Anxiety, develop self-awareness, increase personal happiness and live a more peaceful life. Psychological, scientific, mystical and philosophical: in his writings, John Glyn Hughes has an unerring ability to convey deep wisdom and complex concepts in a way that is easy to understand and enlightening.
