THE ART OF REST
HOW TO FIND RESPITE IN THE MODERN AGE
HAMMOND, CLAUDIA
u003cpu003eToday busyness has become a badge of honour. We want to say we're busy, yet at the same time we feel exhausted. Instead, we should start taking rest seriously as a method of self-care and this book can help us to work out how.u003c/pu003e u003cpu003eu003ciu003eThe Art of Restu003c/iu003e draws on ground-breaking research Claudia Hammond collaborated on--'The Rest Test' the largest global survey into rest ever undertaken, which was completed by 18,000 people across 135 different countries. Much of value has been written about sleep, but rest is different; it is how we unwind, calm our minds, and recharge our bodies. And, as the survey revealed, how much rest you get is directly linked to your sense of well-being.u003c/pu003e u003cpu003eCounting down through the top ten activities which people find most restful, Hammond explains why rest matters, examines the science behind the results to establish what really works, and offers a roadmap for a new, more restful and balanced life.u003c/pu003e
