By Mark Edwards

A unique exploration of mindfulness, meaning, and personal growth through the life and work of David Bowie

What would David Bowie do?

When life gets tough, who can we turn to for guidance? Who can help us find happiness, meaning, and purpose?

The Tao of Bowie suggests that we look to David Bowie and use his remarkable journey through life as a map for navigating our own.

Buddhism played a central role in Bowie's life, but he was also a wide-ranging thinker who drew inspiration from sources as diverse as Jungian psychology, Nietzschean philosophy, and Gnosticism. This book distills the ideas that shaped and sustained Bowie throughout his life and career into ten powerful lessons, each accompanied by exercises, meditations, and practical techniques designed to help readers apply these insights to their own lives.

The Tao of Bowie helps readers better understand who they are, clarify their sense of purpose, manage emotions, and cope with change and setbacks.

Combining the timeless human search for spirituality and happiness with the extraordinary mind and career of one of the most influential cultural figures of the past half-century, this book offers a fresh and inspiring perspective on living well.
