Unexplored Nuances in the Lives of Contemporary Japanese Women That Will Leave You In Awe!
The Feminine Beauty of Sleep
In the Land of the Rising Sun, even napping can be a masterclass! Japanese women of yore didn’t just drift off to dreamland; they made it an art by lying on their backs, legs neatly together, and arms aligned by their sides. This elegant slumber was a staple in samurai households where grace and dignity were the order of the night.
Fast forward to today, and the Japanese have a cheeky term, “inemuri,” meaning “sleeping while present.” It’s the art of taking a public power nap! So, from practicing poised repose at home to snatching zzz’s on the metro, Japan sure knows how to balance tradition with modern-day hustle!
