This dictionary is for the distinctive language that The School of Life 'speaks' that of emotions. It is an alphabetical selection of some 200 words and phrases that shed light on our feelings about ourselves, other people, and the workings of the modern world. <p>Too often, we struggle to find the right words to explain what we mean; The School of Life's dictionary is a tool to help us convey our true intentions with economy and precision.

Insomnia isn't really to do with not being able to sleep; it's about not having given ourselves a chance to think. It is revenge of all the many thoughts we didn't take seriously enough in the day.<br> See also: Philosophical Meditation, Unprocessed Emotion</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>The School of Life is a global organization helping people lead more fulfilled lives.
