A LIST OF EXPERIENCES IN THE SHOWER
READ AND CONTRIBUTE
There are some daily habits that develop a ritual importance. The
shower marks a transition between the private life at home and the
public world at work. Though an personal act, it is shared by people
worldwide.
As an online visitor to Water Medicine, you are encouraged
to contribute a short observation about
your shower to a public list. The Shower Book is designed
to show the subtle ways that our lives are formed around water.
Please consider:
- What's the worst thing that's happened to you in the shower?
- What's a particularly pleasant way of having a shower?
- How do you survive a cold shower?
- What are useful ways of spending time in the shower?

The Shower Book is based on
the 1,000 year old Pillow Book,
which intimately captures the experience of daily life in imperial
Japan.
