My Dream Break Wasn't What I Expected
After years of writing about work-life balance and sabbaticals, Work & Life columnist Rachel Feintzeig decided to take one. The experience surprised her .
Rachel writes: I thought four and a half months without work would birth a new me, with fresh hobbies and skills and maybe a wild story or two to share at parties. Instead, I was surprised to find my sabbatical brought a quieter joy: the chance to enjoy the life I already had.

7 个月I believe in reforming the addiction recovery industry. By utilizing existing free housing resources we can give clients an opportunity to temporarily relocate for 4 month incriments. In so doing we connect them with an opportunity to see the best the new city has to offer. By utilizing volunteer opportunities at museums, historic landmarks, parks, art galleries etc. These visually aesthetic environments aid in reprogramming the brain's reward network. I can't think of a better way to nurture the fight or flight scenary considering in my opinion to seek recovery assistance from a organization in the first place implys flight. Let's begin to aid client participation in areas of high volunteer impact example disaster relief and sustainable development goals, areas of high culture heritage example any of the thousands of world heritage sites world wide.
