Jörg Bernardy reads from his new book "On the Power of Simplicity" and invites us to philosophize together. In a cozy atmosphere over tea or cocoa, we will explore what it means to lead a simple life - not as a material renunciation, but as an attitude and an art of living. An evening for listening, thinking and sharing - for everyone who wants to end the year in peace and reflection.
On the power of simplicity in turbulent times
"Hand on heart, when was the last time you wished for a simpler life?" This question begins a journey of discovery that takes us into the world of simplicity. It shows us that simplicity is more than just material renunciation - it is an inner attitude, a state of being that miraculously mirrors our outer life. With practical exercises in gratitude, acceptance and love, it shows us ways in which we can harmonize our inner and outer worlds. It is an invitation to be enchanted and transformed by the magic of simplicity. About the book.
