      Britishness: what does it really mean? Is it all a big con? Having skewered modern British life in the bestselling Is It Just Me or is Everything Shit?, Steve Lowe and Alan MacArthur set out to uncover the deep dark truth about Britain - its history, its myths and its people. Over the course of a year they watch Dorset Morris men dancing on a chalk-giant's thirty-foot-long erection, endure the Last Night of the Proms and search for a couple of pissed dragons under a hill in Wales. They ask Prince William what it means to be British, witness Scotland rising again (a bit), encounter terrifying Europhobe ladies in Surrey, and lose the will to live in Gibraltar. They also meet a lot of druids. Hilarious, timely and provocative, Blighty offers a brilliant, alternative vision of Britain - the island in the Atlantic that some people call Britain.

    • Oft sind wir selbst unsere schärfsten Kritiker. Kennen Sie diesen ruhelosen Geist, der sich nicht zum Schweigen bringen lässt? Unsere Gesten, Handlungen, Gedanken – ja sogar unser Leben: Nichts scheint gut genug zu sein. Weites Herz, gelassener Geist zeigt uns, wie wir mit dieser inneren Stimme umgehen können, ohne uns in ermüdende Kämpfe zu verstricken. Selbstmitgefühl und Achtsamkeit entlasten uns von Gedanken und Gefühlen der Minderwertigkeit, Unzulänglichkeit und Scham. So treten wir in einen lebendigen Kontakt mit uns selbst und der Welt. Das ermöglicht eine tiefe innere Transformation, die unsere natürliche Intelligenz zum Ausdruck bringt.

    • Schüchternheit kann uns vor den Urteilen und den Feindseligkeiten anderer schützen. Doch wenn wir uns zu sehr mit ihr identifizieren, passiert es leicht, dass wir in einen Teufelskreis aus Befangenheit, Hemmung und Selbstanklage geraten. Sind Sie bereit, den eisernen Griff der Schüchternheit zu -lockern und den Kreislauf des Vermeidens sozialer Interaktionen zu durchbrechen? Der achtsame Weg durch die Schüchternheit zeigt Ihnen, wie das geht. Methoden der Achtsamkeitsbasierten Stressbewältigung (MBSR) und der Kognitiven Verhaltenstherapie machen es möglich, unseren gewohnten Gedankenmustern klarer zu begegnen, so dass wir mit der Zeit fähig werden, die „Trancen der Angst und Unzulänglichkeit“ zu durchbrechen und mitfühlender uns selbst gegenüber zu handeln. Wir können lernen, das direkt anzugehen, was uns wirklich wichtig ist – trotz und inmitten unserer Schüchternheit.
