notre époque nous a éloignés de nous-mêmes jusqu'à nous rendre étrangers aux autres ; parce que, enfin et surtout, la recherche du bonheur est la finalité de toute existence, il est temps de réagir et de remettre de l'ordre dans nos vies privées d'essentiel. Pour Elsa Godart, philosophe et psychanalyste, cela passe par une rencontre avec soi, grâce au stoïcisme. Cette sagesse résume tout ce que l'existence a de joyeux, de merveilleux, mais aussi de tragique, ou même de pathologique. Alternative concrète au malaise contemporain, cette philosophie permet d'agir sur nos vies et de trouver la sérénité et la paix intérieure. À travers des cas concrets, ce livre pose les bases d'une meilleure connaissance de soi, indispensable pour trouver l'équilibre, et reprendre le contrôle sur sa vie. Car nous pouvons tous faire le choix d'être heureux." -- 4e de couvChronicles: Volume 1
