The accelerating rate of change in modern society has made young people feel more vulnerable than ever. The Doomsday Clock stands at ninety seconds to midnight, the closest ever to a global catastrophe. Mental health anti-personnel mines are exploding all over Western society.

Society is responding by force-feeding young people with futile Wellness formulae that can never make them better – self-help mantras which fail to respect their intellects, and which would have them view themselves as bundles of disordered emotions.

Your Anti-Wellness Guide takes a different approach. It explains the many dimensions to what it means to be human. It draws attention to the tangible nature of reality and the completeness of the human being. It promotes relationships over self-centredness and responsibilities over rights. It even finds time to look at the eternal dimension of the human person. Ultimately Wellness, aka happiness, is a result of looking out, and is not to be found solely by looking in.

The adventure of life outlined over three volumes helps young people understand who they are and where they are going. Philosophy, physiology and psychology mingle with practical advice, delivered in a sympathetic manner, charting a Wellness pathway which has happiness at its core.

This volume You and Me (Volume 1) helps young people understand
their place in the world and the importance of relationships in life.
