A Short Philosophy of Napping
local_shippingShip to Me
Overview
What could be better than a nap to slow the frantic course of our pressure-filled lives, dominated by the cult of performance and the need to constantly outdo ourselves? What could be better, in our anxiety-inducing world, than cocooning yourself by falling discreetly asleep on the couch or in a hammock? "One ought not attempt to 'force' nature," Epicurus said long ago. So let's not challenge the philosophers, let's learn to suspend time instead. Napping is a lifestyle, one that respects our natural rhythm and nurtures the best of what we have to offer. If he hadn't taken a nap in the shade of an apple tree, would Newton have discovered the law of gravity? This book is a wisdom-filled collection that reminds us to listen to the life lessons dispensed by nature and invites us to slow the maddening tempo of our lives down.
