Dr. Weil’s 4-Week Plan to Happiness: Week 3

Week Three

1. Reduce Information Overload

If you don’t create boundaries, it feels as if your workday never ends, and you never have any time, which impacts your state of mind. To ward off depression and anxiety, let your brain rest. Enforce a curfew starting at 8 p.m. and power down your cell phone, computer and television. Try this for one week.

2. Reconnect With Nature

Make an effort to get outside and reconnect with nature. It will help you unwind and eliminate distractions. You don’t have to plan an excursion to a remote national park – it can be as simple as taking a walk through the park or along a nearby river or sandy shore. Just make sure to leave your cell phone at home (or in the car) so you can disconnect and fully engage in your surroundings.

all my best,
