The art of stillness

The art of stillness: adventures in going nowhere/ Pico Iyer, 78 pgs.

A good read for this time of quarantine and isolation. Why do people chose to tuck themselves away?  Here Iyer talks about his own "adventure" with a year off in semi-isolation and other people who have chosen to be mostly alone.  His point, I think, is that time with your own thoughts can be quite an adventure. This isn't about meditation per se but certainly encourages it as well us just being quiet.
