Das Leben verstehen

Our time requires a philosophy that addresses both the small and large questions of life: What significance do touches, habits, longings, and beauty have? What is happiness? Does one's own life, or life in general, have a purpose? What is the purpose of work? How can one find direction in life? How should one deal with anger, life crises, disappointments, pain, illness, and death? A philosopher can analyze life situations and propose possible answers. Philosophy becomes a form of life assistance through the continuous reorientation of life using thought. Wilhelm Schmid, a bestselling author, was able to test his ideas for a new foundation of a philosophical art of living over ten years in a hospital near Zurich. He discovered how important it is for people to simply have conversations about everything that moves them.
