A proposito di questo titolo
In this first episode of Once Upon an Adventure, we explore the experience of being busy, especially as the pace of life increases toward the end of the year. Through two thoughtfully chosen books, one for children and one for adults, we look at how constant activity shapes us and what it means to make room for rest.
Our children’s pick, The Busy Life of Ernestine Buckmeister by Linda. R Lodding offers a humorous but recognisable picture of overscheduled childhoods and the value of unstructured play. For adults, we turn to Haemin Sunim’s The Things You Can See Only When You Slow Down, which invites us to pay attention to what we miss when life becomes too full.
We consider how these two books speak to each other, why stillness matters at every age, and how small pauses can help us reconnect with joy, curiosity, and one another. The episode also includes further book recommendations for different age groups and a weekly mini mission designed to bring a little more calm into everyday routines.
