The Power of Boredom: Why boredom is essential for creating a meaningful life

In this age of distraction, it is so easy to fill our boredom with work, activities, and quick entertainment. But avoiding boredom prevents us from using it to create a life full of meaning and purpose. In this groundbreaking new book, teacher, counsellor, and philosopher, Dr. Mark A. Hawkins, gets to the core of why boredom is the most powerful human emotion. Drawing from psychology, philosophy, and personal experiences, Dr. Hawkins reveals a whole new understanding of boredom so we can use it for life transformation. Along the way, Dr. Hawkins provides a perspective of boredom that can sometimes be counter-intuitive. For example, why busy people may, in fact, be the most bored, and why filling your boredom with the wrong things can actually create more of it. It's time to stop distracting yourself from life and start living it.
