A specialist in human psychology explores our increasing disconnection with the physical world, and its impact on leading a meaningful life.

Meet Walter. Walter is waiting on some important news, but his world grows increasingly hazy as he distracts himself with his devices. Will it make a difference to Walter in the end if the news is good or bad?

The Dragonfly in the Haze emphasises the importance of staying present and living consciously. The concise, insightful narrative uses metaphor to delve into the complex workings of human psychology, and make them accessible for all readers. The narrative concludes with a deep exploration of a unique teaching, and a practical process for readers to implement in their lives. It is an essential guide for those who seek to lead a purposeful life filled with meaning and deep connections with others.

This is one of four books in the Being Human series, a self-help collection that dives into the complexities of the human condition. Based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy teachings, the stories focus on the importance of developing psychological resilience to help us deal with life’s challenges. Each book stands alone but, when read together, offers a thorough understanding of our shared human experience.
