Maybe 8 years ago, I’d find myself frequenting the self-help section of Indigo, which was typically positioned next to the psychology section. How should I live, and how do I live ‘better’ than I’m living now? I’ve seen this books migrate from self-help, to “business/leadership” as “mindfulness” became a hot-button topic, to now full blow “wellness” sections of the corporate bookstore.
