Play

Embrace the Wisdom of Your Inner Child

"A little nonsense now and then, is cherished by the wisest men."

Imagination is the source of every human achievement.

''Play leads to brain plasticity, adaptability, and creativity. Nothing fires up the brain like play.''

Play is fundamental to living the way of the Essentialist because it fuels exploration in at least three specific ways:

  1. Play broadens the range of options available to us.
  2. Play is an antidote to stress.
  3. Play has a positive effect on the executive function of the brain (planning, prioritising, scheduling, anticipating, delegating, deciding, analysing)
