PNTV - The Enchiridion by Epictetus

This book presents Epictetus's teachings in a modern and accessible way, focusing on the ninety-three instructions that make up 'The Art of Living'. It stresses the importance of distinguishing between what is within one's control and what is not, and offers practical advice on meeting everyday challenges and facing life's inevitable losses with grace. The book is based on Epictetus's original works, 'The Discourses' and 'Enchiridion', and is interpreted by Sharon Lebell to capture the essence of Stoic philosophy for a contemporary audience.

In 'Loving What Is,' Byron Katie and Stephen Mitchell present 'The Work,' a simple yet powerful process of self-inquiry. The book teaches readers how to apply four key questions to any problem, enabling them to see their troubles in a new light. Katie's method emphasizes that suffering is not caused by the situation itself but by our thoughts about it. Through clear examples and dialogues, the book shows how to apply 'The Work' in various areas of life, such as relationships, work, and personal anxieties, leading to lasting peace, clarity, and energy. The process helps readers accept reality as it is, rather than resisting it, and promotes a transformative practice for spiritual growth and mental well-being.
