Hi friends of napping and open spaces What an important sharing going on here….
I too find it useful and kind to my self and others to nap at a good timing and an appropriate place during days of work and days of resting both - whenever possible. My mother was a great teacher of this very human practice - she napped every day of her life between 20 minutes to 1 hour - and she lived until she was 94. I became a practitioner early on and although I have wavered in my dedication during some years of getting too busy - I am returning to the practice and enjoyment with very good fruits - similar to what you have all described…. We had an one our intentional and collective napping during a Open space day at the warrior of the heart dojo in Croatia in 2012 - where 4 generation napped on the lawn together for 1 hour before we did the harvest / convergence after a days work in the Open space embrace…. - it brought more consciousness and ease to the harvest of new understanding and wiser action steps. Cheers to the art of napping! have a good summer with lots of napping going on :) kindly Toke Intergenerational napping practice yesterday in the Danish woods….
