What could be better than a nap to slow the frantic course of our pressure-filled lives, dominated by the cult of performance and the need to constantly outdo ourselves? What could be better, in our anxiety-inducing world, than cocooning yourself by falling discreetly asleep on the couch or in a hammock? "One ought not attempt to 'force' nature," Epicurus said long ago. Solet's not challenge the philosophers, let's learn to suspend time instead. Napping is a lifestyle, one that respects our natural rhythm and nurtures the best of what we have to offer. If he hadn't taken a nap in the shade of an apple tree, would Newton have discovered the law of gravity? This book is a wisdom-filled collection that reminds us to listen to the life lessons dispensed by nature and invites us to slow the maddening tempo of our lives down.

Vestiges of our salty origins can be found in the physiological makeup of land dwellers today, and marine chemistry still defines the boundaries of existence for most aquatic animals. But even as we rely upon the sea's life-giving properties, we have failed to protect it.Saltwater brings readers face to face with the secrets of the marine realm, revealing massive sperm whales, delicate dumbo octopuses, nightmarish viperfish, and even the ocean's own version of the northern lights: a shimmering bioluminescent display that illuminates the darkest fathoms.It examines humanity's eternal connection with the oceans, from ancient fishing traditions to the devastating legacy of industrial whaling. And it shows how today, even as the ocean bears the scars of overfishing, pollution, and climate change, this damage may yet be reversed though cutting-edge science and strategic conservation.Elegant, deeply researched, and ultimately galvanising, Saltwater is a paradigm-shifting look at how saltwater life shapes our world.

Comparing yourselves to others; feeling burnt out at work; struggling to live in the present; yearning for more money or possessions - in times like these, it's easy to feel unfulfilled - but happiness shouldn't feel out of reach. With her trademark wit and compassion, bestselling author and illustrator Dancing Snail breaks down how to find the small joys in everyday living. We are often told that 'money can't buy happiness' or that we should simply 'be kinder to ourselves', but in a world that moves at a million miles an hour, it is impossible to keep up. But perhaps there is a way to reframe what holds us back? Instead, we could focus on accepting that some things don't work out, on turning fear into empowerment, noting the difference between advice and disparagement, not always putting a price tag on our hobbies, and the joy of missing out. Featuring charming illustrations and relatable anecdotes, Starting Today, I Choose to Be Happy is the perfect read for anyone looking to process the low days and reinvite happiness back into their lives.
