So true. As a boomer, I used to do exactly what you talked about--I could go to a coffee shop or the park and sit and soak in the ambience. Then I developed the "need" to have a magazine or book with me to focus on. Eventually it turned into the Kindle, and finally the cell phone.

Jordan Peterson said in an interview he took up weight lifting to slow his mind down for a few minutes each day. As one who lifts weights at home, I took his advice and turned off the MP3 player and YouTube videos I generally have going. He's right. It's wonderfully therapeutic. Thanks for your insightful thoughts, Sarah.
