When we do find the time to relax or care for ourselves, we tend to turn to activities that are not actually restorative: binging Netflix, scrolling through Twitter, or indulging our FOMO on Instagram.

You will have more energy, for yourself and for other people. You will find community and a sense of purpose. You will feel alive again"--  |c Provided by publisher.
