Living Well

Living Well

With so much of our lives dominated by unhealthy demands on our time and attention and both secular and religious commentators exhorting us to address the obvious dramatic imbalances in our “work-life balance”, Alan Hargrave has crafted a short work that both observes and addresses this modern contagion. Having encountered several streams of the life balances of various Christian religious orders, he has drawn heavily on re-exploring the timeless creed of St Benedict and combined helpful influences from as wide a field as Taizé to the Ionian Community.
Through a combination of well chosen stories from his own varied life, frank and, at times, amusing anecdotes, Hargrave leads the reader to address their personal circumstances, take stock and suggests a variation in lifestyle that is more wholesome, better balanced and more likely to provide peace of heart, mind and soul and providing the opportunity to create a personal, modern “Rule of Life” that is God-honouring and personally fulfilling.
This book will be challenging to many as we will all feel that we have not the time to make the time! Probably an even better reason to read it and take stock and be challenged. The book comes with practical guides to answer enquiring questions to help focus on one of today’s most common ailments.
