This is a beautiful book, full of ideas that could help restore Americas genius for freedom and promise. Thomas Moore, New York Times bestselling author of Care of the SoulA lifelong Emerson lover, teacher, and spiritual seeker reveals how American philosopher Ralph Waldo Emersons twelve essential teachings hold the answer to living an authentic and fulfilling life, one that is in harmony with our souls.In this wise, illuminating book, awardwinning author Mark Matousek reveals how Emersons timeless wisdom can help us with the problems were facing today. Americas original Stoic confronted many of the issues before us, from polarization to fake news, from crooked politicians and rampant materialism, to the scourge of racism.Matousek explains that Emersons path of selfreliance can radically improve your quality of life. The mentor and friend of Henry David Thoreau, Emerson (aka the Oracle of Concord) was Americas first selfhelp author, and his nations conscience for half a century. Like the Stoics before him, he emphasized selfknowledge and mindfulness as paths to happiness; also, selfreliance, cooperation, nonconformity, originality, adaptability, and receptiveness.As Americans are once again discovering the power of Stoicism, Matousek shows why Emersons vision is precisely the medicine we need today. The principles of Waldos philosophy are universal and require no spiritual faith to put into practice. Each person creates her own reality Obstacles are teachers in disguise Your character is your destiny Wonder and awe are the keys to the kingdom Nonconformity is the greatest virtue Nature is the doorway to God Life without selfknowledge is not worth livingEmerson encourages us to throwoff conventions and platitudes, explore ourselves in depth, tell the truth about what we find there, and awaken to our greatest potential.
