''The secret to the sloth's success is their slothful nature and their suite of energy-saving adaptations. In fact slothfulness is such a successful strategy, that there are examples all over the animal kingdom, including, surprisingly, worker ants. Recent studies in humans have shown the many health benefits of adopting a slower pace of life. Sleep itself is universal amongst the animal kingdom. All animals do it, but why remains a mystery. What is clear though, is that unleashing your inner couch potato is no bad thing, be you sloth or human.

Lucy discovers the genius behind the sloths laid back attitude and fights the corner for laziness.''

This 30 minute radio programme is well worth a listen (whether you are feeling sloth-like or not). Maybe New Year Resolution Lists should contain ways of slowing down, decelerating.

Sloth is one of the seven deadly sins. The animal called a sloth and the human condition called Sloth are not the same thing nor even related as a sloth may move slowly but moving slowly and being lazy are not the same thing. The sloth is slow moving but not lazy. The couch potato is lazy but not slow moving especially when faced with a bottle of beer or a bag of potato chips which the C.P. will consume at remarkable speed.
