A Therapeutic Journey: Lessons from The School of Life

Following on frombest-selling The School of Life: An Emotional Education (2020), ATherapeutic Journey compiles extracts from some of our recent titlesand describes the arc of a journey - from breakdown and collapse toconvalescence and recovery. It is intended as both a practical guide and a sourceof consolation and friendship during what might be some of our loneliest, mostanguished moments. The book discusses becoming unwell, imagining that one has leteveryone down and losing direction and hope. It also speaks to us aboutredemption: about regaining the thread, rediscovering meaning and finding a wayback to connection, warmth and joy. A Therapeutic Journey is ultimately, a book about resilience. It insists that wecannot allow terror, self-hatred and sadness to have their victories over usand that we can always, so long as we think matters through with sufficientcreativity and gentleness, identify reasons to live.
