Making sense of, and finding calm in, unsteady times

The modern world has brought us a range of extraordinary benefits and joys, including technology, medicine and transport. But it can also feel as though modern times have plunged us ever deeper into greed, despair and agitation. Seldom has the world felt more privileged and resource-rich yet also worried, blinkered, furious, panicked and self-absorbed.

Product description

How to Survive the Modern World is the ultimate guide to navigating our unusual times. It identifies a range of themes that present acute challenges to our mental wellbeing. The book tackles our relationship to the news media, our ideas of love and sex, our assumptions about money and our careers, our attitudes to animals and the natural world, our admiration for science and technology, our belief in individualism and secularism – and our suspicion of quiet and solitude. In all cases, the book helps us to understand how we got to where we are, digging deeply and fascinatingly into the history of ideas, while pointing us towards a saner individual and collective future. 

The emphasis isn’t just on understanding modern times but also on knowing how we can best relate to the difficulties these present. The book helps us to form a calmer, more authentic, more resilient and sometimes more light-hearted relationship to the follies and obsessions of our age. If modern times are (in part) something of a disease, this is both the diagnostic and the soothing, hope-filled cure.

Must buy
Size: 12, Color: Lapis Awe
Love these for my kiddo the size is just right and they are very comfortable. They don’t get put in the dryer so I can’t say if they shrink. They seem very durable as well which is awesome.

The perfect jean for the "in between tween"
Size: 16 Plus, Color: Md Lara Wash
As a parent, one of my top priorities is ensuring that my daughter feels confident and comfortable in her own skin, especially as she navigates the challenging world of growing up. However, finding the perfect pair of jeans for her has always been a struggle. At the tender age of 11, the last thing I want her to experience is frustration and discomfort when trying on clothes. We've encountered the all-too-common issue of jeans that fit well on the legs but are impossible to zip up and button, leaving my daughter feeling self-conscious and disheartened. Despite her not being plus-sized, finding jeans in her size that didn't constrict or make her feel "fat" (a term I use delicately) seemed like an impossible task. Enter these jeans. In a moment of trial and error, I decided to try a plus-size option, and to our delight, it worked like a charm. My daughter slipped into these jeans effortlessly, and for the first time, she didn't have to struggle or squeeze into them. The fit was perfect, and she felt like a million dollars. The transformation in her confidence was truly remarkable. No longer did she feel insecure about her body or her clothes. Instead, she walked tall, radiating beauty and confidence. These jeans have become a wardrobe staple for her, and I couldn't be happier with the way they've positively impacted her self-esteem. If your daughter is going through a similar experience, I wholeheartedly recommend giving these jeans a try. They're not only affordable but also incredibly inclusive in their sizing, catering to a diverse range of body types. Don't let the frustration of finding the right fit dampen your daughter's spirits. With these jeans, she'll feel empowered and beautiful, just as every young girl should.
