But she also laments the nagging feeling that the loving relationships, professional successes and travel that populate her days had come at a cost, specifically depriving her mind of opportunities to wander without purpose, expectation or obligation.<\/p>\n<p>She describes this yearning as \u201cthe lovely, wasteful vagary of the mind,\u201d and \u201cnostalgia for the lost nothing-moment that turns out to be\u2014well, everything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This book crossed my desk right on time, as summer warmly beckons with its backyard barbecues, beach days, <a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/positive-living\/health-and-wellness\/the-health-benefits-of-gardening\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">lush gardens<\/a> and\u2026work deadlines, family schedules, grocery lists and a long list of tasks required to maintain said lush garden.<\/p>\n<p>Hampl\u2019s book tugs on my short sleeve to say, \u201cdon\u2019t forget to stop doing.\u201d It invites me to forgive myself an un-accomplished task, an ignored weed, a take-out dinner, and find ways to simply be. To stare out a window. At a tree. At the sea. In a hammock.
