The Tao Te Ching was written around 2,500 years ago by a man named Lao Tzu. It is one of the oldest texts in existence and certainly one of the wisest. Its wisdom is timeless and its message as relevant and important now as it was back then.

It is vital that we learn to come back into balance with the natural world, to live in a more harmonious and selfless way and the Tao Te Ching beautifully instructs us in bringing ourselves and our lives into alignment with the 'Tao'
