Her latest book, How to Live Like a Monk: Medieval Wisdom for Modern Life tells us how medieval monastic practices, with their emphasis on a healthy mind, soul and body, can inspire us to live fuller lives. Though monastic living may seem unimaginable to us moderns, it has relevance for today. Danièle illuminates the day-to-day of medieval European monasticism, showing how you can apply the principles of monastic living, like finding balance and peace to your life.
