When my eldest son was three months old, we took him to Shangri-la to research this destination for our clients. New parents, we fussed over our young baby, alert to any threat. On the second floor of a village house, we met Lobsang, a local three month old. He had been left playing on a blanket next to an open fire in the middle of the room. This far more relaxed parenting style contrasted markedly with our fussiness, and Lobsang and his Tibetan parents didn’t seem any less happy for it. Comparing my stressed urban lifestyle to this rural, laidback Tibetan village was eye-opening and a feeling I will never forget.
