By indulging in the experience of being alone, we can be inspired
to find our own rewards and ultimately lead richer, fuller lives.
Our fast-paced society does not approve of solitude; being alone is
so often considered anti-social and some even find it sinister. Why
is this so when autonomy, personal freedom and individualism are
more highly prized than ever before? Sara Maitland answers this
question in How to Be Alone by exploring changing attitudes
throughout history. Offering experiments and strategies for
overturning our fear of solitude, she helps us to practise it
without anxiety and encourages us to see the benefits of spending
time by ourselves. The School of Life looks at new ways of thinking
about life’s biggest questions. Discover more fascinating books
from the series with How to Stay Sane and How to Think More About
Sex.
