The Art of Stillness: Adventures in Going Nowhere (TED Books)

I’ve been thinking a great deal about time and motion lately, about being a still point in the ceaseless rush.

If at any point you are reading along and find yourself overtaken by an experience of expansiveness, interconnectedness, or deep stillness, then just stop reading and turn your attention directly to that experience. Relax into that experience. Give the experience permission to be the only thing there is. The words on the page aren’t going anywhere.
