Our central problem is that we do not know what or who a human being really is. We lack this knowledge because we have no valid picture of the human WORD. from the Foreword

How much time do we devote to the general art of being human? This practical guide is both a spiritual psychology and a contemporary manual of the inner life. From Normal to Healthy highlights the constricted nature of today's consciousness and describes the importance and value of taking time to become aware of our consciousness and to actively engage with it.

Georg Kuhlewind highlights how readers can expand their inner selves by practicing a series of exercises, based on the Eightfold Path of the Buddha and the cognitive spiritual path of Rudolf Steiner. He outlines these exercises and explains that by actively engaging with them it is possible to journey towards a life which is more active, thoughtful and happy.
