Sabbath: Finding Rest, Renewal and Delight in Our Busy Lives

by Wayne Muller

Sabbath: Finding Rest, Renewal and Delight in Our Busy Lives Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In today's world, with its relentless emphasis on success and productivity, we have lost the necessary rhythm of life, the balance between work and rest. Constantly striving, we feel exhausted and deprived in the midst of great abundance. We long for time with friends and family, we long for a moment to ourselves.

Millennia ago, the tradition of Sabbath created an oasis of sacred time within a life of unceasing labor. Now, in a book that can heal our harried lives, Wayne Muller, author of the spiritual classic How, Then, Shall We Live?, shows us how to create a special time of rest, delight, and renewal--a refuge for our souls.

We need not even schedule an entire day each week. Sabbath time can be a Sabbath afternoon, a Sabbath hour, a Sabbath walk. With wonderful stories, poems, and suggestions for practice, Muller teaches us how we can use this time of sacred rest to refresh our bodies and minds, restore our creativity, and regain our birthright of inner happiness.

Synopsis:

Muller's beautiful book brings the spirit of Sabbath alive today for people of all faiths, enabling readers to reclaim peace and joy at the heart of their overworked, overcommitted lives.
