Everything Is Fine, Actually

The Life and Chill of Alan Watts

De: James Johnson

Narrado por: Kat Bohn

Before mindfulness apps. Before lo-fi beats to study to. Before every self-help book told you to “let go”… There was Alan Watts. This book isn’t a lecture. It’s a vibe. Everything Is Fine, Actually is a chilled-out journey through the life and mind of a man who didn’t care about enlightenment points — just clarity, laughter, and presence. From his British roots to his West Coast evolution, Watts preached the art of not trying, the illusion of the ego, and the sacred joke of existence. He was a philosopher in a bathrobe, a trickster in a world of seekers, and the calm voice in your head long before the internet turned him into a meme. This is not the biography he asked for. It’s the one he deserves.

Finding calm in chaos

I didn’t expect to enjoy this as much as I did. The narration felt like having a deep, funny chat with a wise friend who doesn’t take life too seriously. It reminded me to slow down, breathe, and stop trying to control everything. I started listening during my morning walks, and it completely changed the tone of my day less stress, more clarity. The stories and insights are simple but surprisingly powerful. It’s the kind of audiobook that makes you rethink what “fine” really means and helps you feel okay with just being human.
