Do you ever feel guilty when you're not being productive? Or feel that you can't take a break to have fun or rest?
While work, dedication and productivity can be great things to prioritize, sometimes our lives can tilt out of balance when we don't also find the time for rest, recreation, fun and enjoyment.
Today Professor Jody Hironaka-Juteau is back to share her insights on the importance of fun and recreation and how to integrate that into our lives in light of challenges and resistances.
As you join in the discussion, we invite you to be mindful of your narratives around fun and rest.
What impact could it have on your life if you dedicated more time to recreation?
