3 Books That Make Time Feel Like It's Moving More Slowly

Hello everyone. I am Naseka.
I define myself as a philosopher and book reviewer.
I define myself as such.

Time flies, and it is already November, with autumn deepening.

Especially this year, with the sudden
three-day weekend,
many people have likely enjoyed their time off,
going out with family and friends
or relaxing at home.

Now that the hot summer has passed
and before the freezing cold waves arrive,
this comfortable time of year
is perfect for
relaxing the mind and body
tired from the busy daily grind.

So, this time, I will introduce
books recommended for leisure time
that make you feel as if
the flow of time has slowed down.

My previous book recommendations are here ↓

Living Simply

Modern people, who are constantly chased by work and time,
tend to be interested in various life hacks
to save time or increase efficiency
even just a little bit.

As a result,
our homes are overflowing with convenient tools,
and it is a common sight to see
smartphone home screens
crammed with seemingly useful apps.

But when you think about it carefully,
the cause of the daily chaos
might actually be that very "clutter."

As you read this book,
it teaches you how complicated our lives have become,
and how a simple lifestyle
can relieve the stress that modern people carry.

By reading this book and actually
simplifying your room and your smartphone,
you will likely gain the sensation
that even your thoughts and mind
are becoming clearer.

Dominique Loreau, who advocates for a simple lifestyle,
has published many books,
and I have read many of them,
but this is the one I consider the most fundamental
and the one I re-read the most.

TIME OFF: A Strategic Rest Technique to Restore Productivity and Creativity to Your Work Style

When you work hard every day,
"My days off end with sleeping in or just lounging around"
…there are quite a few people who feel this way.

Many people misunderstand this, but
"Resting = Doing nothing"
is actually a mistaken way of thinking.

Days off exist to cultivate the energy
to be fully active during the weekdays,
and the way you spend your time to recharge that energy
is by no means just "doing nothing" or "relaxing."

For those who have such wasteful misunderstandings,
this book teaches the correct
"way to spend leisure time."

Why not change how you spend your days off
in a "strategic" way
so that you can also maximize
your own potential?

ARIA The MASTERPIECE

When it comes to how I spend my leisure time,
for me, it's reading above all else.

Manga, in particular, doesn't require mental strain,
yet there are many wonderful works
that provide inspiration and realizations.

For those who want to relax their mind and body on their days off,
I especially recommend
this work called "ARIA".

The perspective shown by the characters
in a setting modeled after the city of water, Venice,
makes us realize the "wonderful things right around us"
that we tend to overlook
in our busy modern society.

The descriptions are so vivid that you can almost feel the wind blowing, the temperature of the air,
and even the surrounding sounds,
giving you a sense of immersion
as if you had stepped into that world
even though you are just reading a book.

If you read this work, your heart will surely be cleansed,
and you will be able to spend a wonderful day off.
