YAT: Psychotherapy of the Russian Tradition, or How to Live Better Drawing on Our Cultural Code

In the audiobook, Elizaveta Tyugaeva shows how the experience and traditions of our ancestors—Russian peasants—can serve us today. They teach us to endure both happy and difficult moments, to value beauty and time, to care for loved ones, and to feel a sense of belonging to something bigger. Instead of outdated ideas about Russian culture, the author suggests perceiving traditions as a philosophical concept and a method of psychotherapy. These ancient peasant practices can be relevant in the modern world, helping us gain stability and relief amid the rapid development of technology.
