A Message for an Age of Anxiety

The timeless spiritual classic on overcoming anxiety, embracing uncertainty and learning to live in the present, from the acclaimed philosopher and author of The Way of Zen.

‘The perfect guide for a course correction in life’ Deepak Chopra, bestselling author of The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success

‘What we have forgotten is that thoughts and words are conventions, and that it is fatal to take conventions too seriously’

In uncertain times, it’s easy to feel anxious about the future while burdened by the past. In the midst of this negative loop, we often forget how to live in the now.

In The Wisdom of Insecurity, pioneering philosopher and Zen scholar Alan Watts offers a profound yet practical guide to psychological freedom. Blending Eastern philosophy with Western thought, Watts shows us how, in an age of unprecedented anxiety, we must embrace the present in order to live a fulfilling life.

A beloved modern classic, The Wisdom of Insecurity is the empowering and uplifting guide to help provide calm and allow you to live fully in the here and now.

'A revelatory classic… one of those books bound to stay with you for a lifetime ' Maria Popova
