How to Live Like a Monk: Medieval Wisdom for Modern Life
by Danièle Cybulskie
What great recommendations for a pleasant and gratifying life!
You need not practice a certain faith to appreciate learning about the medieval monastic life and how their day-to-day lives can encourage us to follow similar practices. Specific examples include “Read,” “Consider staying anonymous,” and “Everything in moderation, including moderation.” Simply put, “What we can learn from monastic life…is how to fulfill…requirements of happiness: living with meaning and purpose.”
This little gem will be a reread in the future for sure.
