Description

Wisdom of the Ancients: Life lessons from our distant past by Neil Oliver. In a world increasingly fraught with complexity and conflict, we're often told that finding peace of mind requires us to stay present. But what if the key to being present lies in the past? Neil Oliver takes us on a global journey through antiquity, exploring forgotten cultures and early civilizations to uncover timeless wisdom. From Laetoli footprints to Keralan rituals, stone circles and cave paintings, Oliver distils this ancient knowledge into twelve messages that have endured the test of time. These powerful insights invite us to consider how they might apply to our lives today, offering a profound and moving exploration of what it means to be human. With immense knowledge of our ancient past at his disposal, Neil Oliver presents a masterful meditation on the wisdom we can learn from our ancestors.
