Summary

There's a lot to be said for taking life a little easier, like our sloth friends do。
As Mahatma Gandhi once said, ''There is more to life than increasing its speed。''In rest, we find replenishment, and sometimes those leaps of brilliance that come only when we're relaxed and open to them。 So, to quote Sylvia Boorstein, ''Dont just do something, sit there。'' And kick back with this little book of quotations from sages of slow, from Shakespeare to Charles M。 Schulz, from Aesop to Maya Angelou。Charming illustrations of sloths throughout。Adorable mini book comes with cute 24K gold-plated charm, which may be kept on the ribbon bookmark or worn on a bracelet or necklace。80-page full-color hardcover mini book with dust jacket。Invitingly priced!Book measures 3-1/4 inches wide by 4 inches high。

Much like the tortoise from Aesop‘s fables, this is a short inspirational book about the value of taking it slow。 It’s about the value of taking it all in as the world passes you by。 Sloths are one of my favorite animals, they should also be yours。 Someday I will get to meet a real sloth or several, which would be a dream。 If you ever have the opportunity to meet one, I will be jealous and I highly recommend it。

A charming little book full of quotes that remind us to rest。 I received it as a holiday gift from my niece, and finally took the time to enjoy it today in the midst of the chaos at my house today as workers tear up floors, drywall, and cabinets thanks to a burst pipe during The Big Freeze。 The week of February 15, 2021 did have its silver linings。 With no power and no water, only the gas fireplace for heat, our lives became very simple and oddly peaceful: get dressed under the covers, feed and A charming little book full of quotes that remind us to rest。 I received it as a holiday gift from my niece, and finally took the time to enjoy it today in the midst of the chaos at my house today as workers tear up floors, drywall, and cabinets thanks to a burst pipe during The Big Freeze。 The week of February 15, 2021 did have its silver linings。 With no power and no water, only the gas fireplace for heat, our lives became very simple and oddly peaceful: get dressed under the covers, feed and water the cats, huddle around the gas fireplace eating cold breakfast。 Around 10:30am, do physical activity to keep warm, mostly hauling buckets of water from neighbors to flush, fill, and have on hand a bucket for each toilet。 Walk the neighborhood, checking on others who may need help。 Around 3:00, assess what else needs to be done while daylight lasts。 6:00, huddle up around the fireplace and eat dinner while listening to Stephen Fry read Harry Potter on CD。 We had some of the best conversations we've had in a long time, felt very present and relaxed。 It helps that our jobs are secure and allowed us the time off we needed to cope with the situation, and for that we are forever grateful! And so grateful for great neighbors! 。。。more

Got this as a gift for Christmas and have just been flicking through ever since。 It's a lovely little quote book full of relaxation advice。 Something to put on your coffee table to look at quickly when you're bored or as a little extra gift。 Got this as a gift for Christmas and have just been flicking through ever since。 It's a lovely little quote book full of relaxation advice。 Something to put on your coffee table to look at quickly when you're bored or as a little extra gift。 。。。more

Never waste any time you can spend sleeping。- FRANK H。 KNIGHT Questo libricino è una raccolta di citazioni di vario genere che riassumono la filosofia del bradipo。 Molto carino, vale la pena averlo anche solo per le dolcissime illustrazioni sparse tra le pagine。

I purchased this at my local zoo today! This little book is filled with quotes about taking life slow and living “one day at a time” and “not worrying about tomorrow” which we all need to be reminded of from time to time。 It being pocket sized makes it easy to take with you so that you can be reminded of these quotes anywhere you go。 Whenever my anxiety is acting up, I’m going to turn to this book。

Not about Enneagram Nines, but sure did speak to my soul。

I love little books! I love all of the great quotes。 This one has great quotes from Ferris Bueller, Simon Sinek, Jim Butcher and so many more。 My favorite is a Jim Butcher quote "God is sleep。 Go worship" I love little books!

About 20 minutes of reading but packed full of great wisdom。 I got this book from my two grandsons 5 and 3 years old who know Pops loves quotes。 Never did I imagine this little book would offer such great advice both personally and professionally。

A very cute and adorable small book full of qoutes about why life is not a marathon and that you can keep it slow and enjoy everything it has to offer。 The pocket size (even smaller than that, I think) is such a great idea - I can put the book in my backpack and have it with myself everywhere I go。 Also, let's not forget about beautiful sloths accompanying the pages。 I'm in love。 A very cute and adorable small book full of qoutes about why life is not a marathon and that you can keep it slow and enjoy everything it has to offer。 The pocket size (even smaller than that, I think) is such a great idea - I can put the book in my backpack and have it with myself everywhere I go。 Also, let's not forget about beautiful sloths accompanying the pages。 I'm in love。 。。。more
