Book Description
Incisive questions can inspire self-reflection, spark ideas, and, best of all, reveal surprising truths. From Flow, the champions of meditating on life’s simple pleasures, here’s a book of 165 creative questions, some sweet, some silly, some unexpectedly provocative, that will open the mind to deeper self-knowledge. There are no “right” answers—the point is simply to stay curious and stay open to learning about oneself or a friend, partner, or roommate. There are questions to prompt memories: How many homes have you lived in? To fuel a fantasy life: Which historical event do you wish you could have seen with your own eyes? To tap into your sense of adventure: What’s the wildest thing you’ve ever done? To remind you to live in the present: What were the three best things that happened today? To celebrate your strength: When have you stood up for yourself? A signature Flow book in its mindful theme and charming, colorful aesthetic with vibrant patterns and hand-lettering, Know Yourself is a pleasure to browse through and share.

Book Description
Our brains seek order and resist the unexpected, inconsistent, and counterintuitive. But life is more often paradoxical than predictable — which is why formulas for fulfillment and success often fail. Instead of fighting the tide of contradiction and confusion, Marc Lesser asserts, we can learn to understand and even embrace them using the simple tools he presents in these pages. Readers learn to master five core competencies: Know Yourself, Forget Yourself; Be Confident, Question Everything; Fight for Change, Accept What Is; Embrace Emotion, Embody Equanimity; and Benefit Others, Benefit Yourself. The result is balance, a version of Buddhism’s “middle way,” which prompts understanding of what is required in any given moment and actions through which we skillfully “dance” with paradox in enriching and joyful ways. Bolstered by the latest in neuroscience, this guide is nuanced and direct, profound and practical.

Book Description
Knowing Yourself takes an extended utilitarian look at the matter of connecting with one's authentic self. Thoughtful, stimulating, and occasionally surprising, it offers a wider and deeper perspective on self-discovery than normally encountered elsewhere, doing so in a provocative balanced way. The work consists of fifteen hundred newer ideas, all of which probably have not quite been seen in print before. Based in part on fifteen years of research in philosophy, psychology, and comparative religion, and designed to entertain, encourage, enlighten, and constructively tease you, the project strives to be the most intellectually action-packed and potentially useful small volume related to self-knowledge ever. Among the many topics considered are: the development of character, the truth about oneself, self-image, self-deception, hiding from oneself, vanities and follies, self-centeredness, self-control, self-reliance, needs, realizations, clear thinking, and making the most of oneself. Through this work you will rightfully be able to regard yourself with new-and-better more perceptive greater appreciation. It's a book for self-improvers pleased with learning and with coming across occasional new insights.
