Alaskan Apple Users Group Blog, November 29, 2013

This new book by Lonely Planet called "Calm: Secrets to Serenity from the Cultures of the World" is a treat for the senses.

"Calm: Secrets to Serenity from the Cultures of the World" shows how people in 50 cultures keep stress at bay. Learn to focus on the journey (Japan), find peace in solitude (Russia) or practice archery (Bhutan). Even a game of backgammon with friends (Egypt) can do the trick.
