How Do We Rest Well? | 私たちはどうすれば上手に休めるのか？

We spend much of our lives working, studying, and trying to get things done. But when was the last time we truly rested?

Is rest simply about sleeping or taking a break, or is there more to it? Why do some of us feel guilty when we aren't being productive? And how can we rest in a way that refreshes not only our bodies but also our minds?

Let's explore the art of resting well:

• What does it mean to rest well?
• Why is it sometimes difficult to stop working and relax?
• What kinds of rest do we need besides sleep?
• How can we balance productivity with rest in our daily lives?

Come join a relaxed discussion and share your thoughts and experiences. Whether you're returning to this topic or joining for the first time, everyone is welcome!

🕒 Schedule:

8:00-8:20 - Listen to a bilingual lecture on the night's topic while enjoying snacks and coffee

8:20-9:00 - Discussion in small groups

Afterwards - Stick around and hang out with new friends!

What is IQ Cafe?

IQ Cafe is a place that wants to create a space for you to think deeply.We think it's a shame how many people go through life without reflecting on things that matter. It’s important to take the time to think about the difficult questions in life. It can be easy to live your life and just go through the motions.

The presentations at IQ Cafe are always bilingual because we want you to be able to practice Japanese and English! For the discussion time, there are tables with English and Japanese available. Let's practice language together!

We have Bilingual events every Thursday night at 8pm in Harajuku! We look forward to seeing you there!
