Embracing the void
“So often we spend any spare moment stuck to a screen on social media or our news feed. Embrace and schedule time for boredom and being disconnected….Embrace the void by appreciating a sunrise or sunset, reading a book, or just staring off into space. Studies show our most creative moments happen during boredom.” ~Dr. Andrew Weil
