“In Sabbath, Wayne Muller gives us the license, the encouragement to take that single mindful breath which puts our busy lives in perspective and helps restore our souls.”—Fred Rogers, of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood
Find peace in our fast-paced world with this thoughtful guide to creating a dedicated time of rest, delight, and renewal—from the New York Times bestselling author of How, Then, Shall We Live?
Millennia ago, the tradition of Sabbath created an oasis of sacred time within a life of unceasing labor. 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.
Now, in a book that can heal our harried lives, Wayne Muller shows us how to foster a time for effortless, nourishing rest—a healing 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.
