The Middle Road

The Middle Road is a book written by Llewellyn Howland that explores the concept of balance and moderation in life. The author argues that in today's world, people are often pulled in two extreme directions - either towards excess or towards asceticism. Howland suggests that the key to a fulfilling life lies in finding the middle road, where one can enjoy the pleasures of life without becoming enslaved to them, and where one can practice self-discipline without becoming rigid and joyless.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of the middle road. Howland draws on insights from philosophy, psychology, and spirituality to provide a comprehensive and practical guide to living a balanced life. He discusses topics such as the importance of self-awareness, the role of pleasure and desire, the value of simplicity, and the power of mindfulness.Throughout the book, Howland encourages readers to reflect on their own lives and to make conscious choices about how they want to live. He offers practical tips and exercises to help readers cultivate balance and moderation in their daily lives. The Middle Road is a thoughtful and thought-provoking book that offers a refreshing perspective on the pursuit of happiness and fulfillment.This is a new release of the original 1961 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
