The Art of Rest: How to Find Respite in the Modern Age by Claudia Hammond
What is rest? How does it help us? What can we do to rest? This book tries to answer some of these questions via the results of the study. The top 10 reported means of rest were detailed and analyzed. This is mixed with some analysis of the various means of rest. Alas, the results appear somewhat flat. What are people trying to achieve when the rest? What do they achieve?
Some people say reading is restful. Others report watching television. Working out is a means of rest for some (while it is the opposite for others.) Daydreaming can be restful. Time alone is often restful, but aren't social experiences good? Or are they stressful. Things seem to differ significantly from person to person that it is difficult to make generations.
