The Art of Rest
Shortlisted for the British Psychological Society Book Award for Popular Science Much of value has been written about sleep, but rest is different; it is how we unwind, calm our minds and recharge our bodies. The Art of Rest draws on ground-breaking research Claudia Hammond collaborated on: ‘The Rest Test’, the largest global survey into rest ever undertaken, completed by 18,000 people across 135 different countries. The survey revealed how people get rest and how it is directly linked to your sense of wellbeing. Counting 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.
When Both Ends Meet
You don't need to be a "poetry buff" to appreciate the verses contained in this book. All that's required is experience of this varied and sometimes extraordinary life we all share. Humour, tragedy, nonsense, grief, joy - these are all things we encounter as we make our way through our time here on Earth. There are times when we feel the need to get together with a friend and chill out. It's good to know that others share the same frustrations, delights, depressions, triumphs, disasters - and, sometimes, we just want to have a laugh. So why not take a look inside? Join me as I browse through life's ins and outs and ups and downs - some of it serious, some of it, well... just plain ridiculous! When all's said and done, we're all in this together!
