Below is an excerpt of "The art of Leisure"

"I was talking to one of my close friends today, and he told me that he was going to take a nap, and i responded-"wonderful, good for you!" he looked at me with this big smile and said, "most people would be like, what are you going to do that for, its the middle of the day?" He then added, " you are so supportive and encouraging", and then he laughed.
I find that people do not give themselves permission to either be still, relax and let go, take a siesta, or simply do pleasurable things.
I think societal pressures, self imposed expectations, guilt, competition with our neighbor, lack of self acceptance, and most importantly-fear, influence our ability to just slow down, breath, and trust in the process of Life."
