Taoism is a Chinese philosophy attributed to Lao Tzu which contributed to the folk religion of the people primarily in the rural areas of China and became the official religion of the country under the Tang Dynasty. Taoism is therefore both a philosophy and a religion. Taoism teaches to embrace wonder and the joy in living gracefully with style. Lao Tzu was an ancient Chinese philosopher and writer who is known to be the founder of Taoism. He is also credited as the writer of Taoism’s most sacred text, the Tao Te Ching and his words can apply to people all over the world.

    This is a great video that opened my eyes to a world I have been blinded from. It is very important to understand who you are to be able to live life and live it with the right values and morals through your own perspectives and your own truths. I am a religious person but this philosophy only paves the way to find myself.

    I have to say, this is incredibly informative and insightful. However, the only thing I’d argue against is that going for drinks with coworkers/friends and socialising can be a productive use of time, if done once a week or once every two weeks - as humans we’re social beings. Being around the right people can certainly enrich us and improve our mental wellbeing.
