Francie Healey - HONJOK - Az egyedül élt élet művészete

JOKE or single?

Complete solitude or forced loneliness?

This book encourages us to get to know the feeling of "alone but not lonely" and discover who we really are. With its help, we can experience the beauty of being alone and create an opportunity to fulfill our inner wealth. HONJOK, i.e. "one-man tribe" - this is how South Koreans call people who consciously and voluntarily live alone, without a spouse or family. Their lifestyle, which ignores established social and cultural norms and stereotypical roles, is the result of a conscious choice. This is the path of self-reflection, which leads us inward, into ourselves, with gentle questions and observation. Through the topics of being alone, self-esteem and freedom from within, we can get to know our true selves, our desires and our needs. On this path, we can discover the gifts of belonging to ourselves, increase our self-confidence and find deeper peace of mind.
