As he comes under the influence of each Prys, his life begins to change in ways he could never have imagined. And so, in the meantime, do theirs. . .

How to Live Like a Stoic
'The inestimable Tom Hodgkinson once again contributes to our collective calm with this perfectly judged collection of philosophy.' Emma Thompson 'A great guide to philosophy and big ideas... it made me laugh out loud. It’s such a cheerful book, I read it in one go (well... two) and emerged refreshed and nourished.' Dominic West'He knows that play is one of the best teachers, and this treatise on Stoicism is illuminating, engaging, informative and highly accessible' Irvine WelshThere’s more to Stoicism than shrugging your shoulders and getting on with it, as Tom Hodgkinson discovers in this witty and enlightening book. Stoicism is an enduring and ancient philosophy that can help you with everything from love and politics to money and spirituality. The Stoics were celebrated by the Romans, they influenced Christianity and even Shakespeare admired them. Today, both therapists and politicians will profess adherence to the Stoic creed. The “serenity prayer” is a Stoic statement. The Beatles’ “Let it Be” is a Stoic song. Tom Hodgkinson, author of bestselling How to Be Idle, goes back to the original philosophical texts and looks at the greatest Stoics in history – including Seneca, Cicero, Epictetus, Marcus Aurelius and St Augustine – to see if they can help us find fulfilment. He discovers that Stoicism is much stranger and more radical than you’d think. With witty reflections on everything from ethics, grammar, rhetoric, education, friendship and the importance of occasionally letting your hair down, Tom Hodgkinson shares his genuinely funny and brilliant guide to the Stoic life.
Quantum Aikido
How modern physics confirms the energetic power Aikido• Draws on quantum mechanics and physics, like wave–particle duality and the unified field theory, to define the energetics of Aikido• Explores concepts of Aikido such as musubi (to tie together), connection, and reconciliation to re-link the individual with the universal• Provides lessons for everyday life to enhance personal and professional relationships and diffuse threatening situationsAikido is a martial art that offers a philosophy of harmonizing energy. The techniques of Aikido focus on aligning oneself with the world in total harmony and this begins by winning over the discord in our own minds.Richard applies the insights of quantum mechanics to explore key concepts of Aikido such as musubi (to tie together), connection, unification, and reconciliation to re-link the individual with the universal. As quantum physics and Aikido reveal, the dualism of two conflicting opposites is an illusion. It is the unified field of the two that creates life and from which reality emanates. The essential teaching of Quantum Aikido is to live as an expression of the single source of yin and yang rather than in polarity, or bouncing between the two. Embodying this teaching transforms one’s experience of life from being a struggle to a dance. These lessons can be applied in everyday life to enhance personal and professional relationships and diffuse threatening situations. The author’s creative, flow-oriented approach shows how to negotiate challenges by absorbing and using the energy of any given situation to create innovative solutions. This state of being exercises whole-brain thinking and self-reflexivity to help readers develop the measured temperament of a warrior. Readers will learn how to tap energetic sources so that each moment is an opportunity to resolve problems with spontaneous creativity.Learn to become spontaneous and free with the energetics of Quantum Aikido. By offering ways to unify our being and live in acceptance and harmony, this book opens doorways to transformation and positive change.
